Shadow Exploud
PvE Analysis
SHADOW EXPLOUD IS WHERE THIS POKEMON REACHES MAXIMUM VOLUME. IT CAN DEFINITELY MAKE A LOT OF NOISE, BUT NOT A LOT OF DAMAGE. LEAVE THIS ONE BEHIND FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR RAID TEAM AND EARDRUMS.
Best PvE Offensive Moveset
Bite + Crunch | Best |
---|
- Bite’s higher DPS is better than Astonish’s higher energy gain.
- Crunch shares type coverage with Bite and Astonish.
- While Fire Blast is poor on offense, Disarming Voice is plain awful.
- Boomburst has the highest neutral performance, but why would you use Shadow Exploud for neutral performance...?
Best PvE Defensive Moveset
Astonish + Crunch or Disarming Voice | Best |
---|
- Astonish beats Bite with higher power, energy gain, and better neutral coverage.
- Crunch has 3 bars and an early damage window, although it’s poor vs. Fighting.
- Disarming Voice has 3 bars and superior type coverage, but it’s easy to dodge.
- Fire Blast has no redeeming defensive qualities.
- Boomburst has high neutral damage, but will probably never get a chance to launch.
PvP Analysis
Astonish + Crunch and Disarming Voice |
Exploud is a Normal-type Pokemon and lacks STAB on any of its relevant moves. Astonish is the stand-out Fast Move option, as it sports solid damage and slightly above-average energy generation alongside good neutral coverage.Â
The insane energy cost of Fire Blast results in only two charge move options: Crunch and Disarming Voice, both of which have identical stats. The former is a Dark-type move that synergizes with Exploud's fast moves to counter Ghost and Psychic Pokemon, while the latter is a Fairy-type move which can be useful to cover Exploud's weakness to Fighting-type opponents.Â
