Exploud's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Exploud PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Exploud boasts an impressive HP stat but very low ATK and DEF. This already puts it out of contention in ⚔️ Raids but due to its subpar DEF, it also fails as a 🛡️ Gym defender. Although, with a Dark-type moveset, it can hinder Ghost-type attackers.

Exploud is, sadly, only a Pokédex addition at best.

Exploud PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

Due to its Normal typing and Dark-type moveset, Exploud is good at tackling Ghost types in the Great League aside from also claiming Feraligatr and Empoleon. Unfortunately, that's all there is to Exploud in this format, so it's best kept out of battles.

🟡 Ultra League

Exploud exploits the same advantages it does in the Great League: beating Ghost types. While Exploud still remains inferior in the Ultra League, it does take out the wide presence of Ghost Pokémon in this format, including Giratina Altered. A couple of other notable wins are Cresselia, Feraligatr, and Kommo-o. That's all about it.

🟣 Master League

Exploud is too weak for the Master League.
