Provenance

Where it came from

The Exploud card from the EX Emerald set was released in 2005 as part of the third generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was inspired by the Hoenn region, introduced in the Pokémon Emerald video game, and showcased the 'EX' mechanic, which highlighted more powerful evolved Pokémon with unique foil treatments and higher hit points to influence competitive play.

The artwork for this particular card was produced by illustrator Naoki Saito. In this era of the trading card game, artists often focused on dynamic, action-oriented poses to emphasize the specific elemental powers or personalities of the creatures. Exploud, known for its ability to project sound, is depicted in a bold, vibrant style that became characteristic of the mid-2000s expansion sets, receiving generally positive attention from players for its utility within Colorless-type decks at the time.
