: Its howls can be heard over six miles away. It emits all sorts of noises from the ports on its body.
: Its roar in battle shakes the ground like a tremor--or like an earthquake has struck.
: Exploud triggers earthquakes with the tremors it creates by bellowing. If this Pokémon violently inhales from the ports on its body, it’s a sign that it is preparing to let loose a huge bellow.
: Exploud communicates its feelings to the others by emitting whistle-like sounds from the tubes on its body. This Pokémon only raises its voice when it is in battle.
