Questions people ask

Is Exploud good in Pokemon GO?
Not for battle. Exploud has no ranked PvP, raid or Max Battle role, so keep one for the Pokedex and transfer the rest.
Should I keep or transfer Exploud?
Exploud has no job in PvP, raids, or Max Battles. Keep one for the Pokedex and any of the special variants below, and transfer the rest for candy.
Is Exploud a good raid attacker?
Exploud ranks #96 of 354 normal attackers with 9.9 DPS. That is outside the top 15, so it is not a raid priority.
Can Exploud be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Yes. Shiny Exploud is available from evolution, photobomb, research, wild. A shiny is worth keeping for the collection no matter its IVs.
Is Shadow Exploud worth keeping?
Shadow Exploud hits 20% harder and takes 20% more damage. It has no ranked role of its own, so treat it like a normal copy.
