Strategy Overview

Exploud's stats are not the best on paper, but its access to STAB Boomburst allows it to be a menacing wallbreaker in NU, breaking apart slower Pokemon like Vaporeon and Sylveon with Choice Specs. With a colorful movepool accompanied by Scrappy, Exploud is able to deal with Steel-, Ghost-, and Rock-types such as Escavalier, Golurk, and Diancie. Unfortunately, its slow Speed leaves it open to faster Pokemon like Toxicroak, Rotom-C, and Tyrantrum. Additionally, Exploud matches terribly into common offensive archetypes and must take a strong attack from a Pokemon like Drapion or Silvally-Ground before attacking itself.
