Strategy & play
How Exploud plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Heavy Impact) needs 4 Energy — a turn-4 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Attacks on any Energy (Colorless cost) — splashable into any deck regardless of type.
- Colorless type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥75 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
- Retreat cost 4 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.
- A Stage 2 — without Rare Candy you lose ~2 turns setting it up, and it’s gust-bait before it’s online (you must draw Loudred first).
How to beat Exploud
- Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥75 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
- Trap it Active — 4 retreat means it can’t escape without help.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Exploud is real?
Exploud is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
