Exploud ex, Crystal Guardians #92

Crystal Guardians is a set in the EX series. It was released on 1 August 2006. The printed size is 100, and the checklist is the same length. Exploud ex is 92/100, in position 92 of 100 on this checklist. Before it is 91 Delcatty ex, and after it is 93 Groudon ex. The listed rarity is Rare Holo EX.

Exploud ex is a Stage 2 ex Colorless Pokémon with 150 HP. In the Pokédex this is Exploud (#295), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Loudred. In this catalog that name is Loudred (#294).

Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this card. The same name is on 721 other cards in the catalog.

Exploud (#295) has 10 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 10 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2004 to 2023. The earliest other card is Exploud 6/101 in Hidden Legends (2004). That card is named Exploud, while this one is Exploud ex. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 150 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Holo EX. Tomokazu Komiya illustrated that card, and Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 9 other cards of Exploud list a different HP.

Extra Noise is listed as Poké-Body. As long as Exploud ex is your Active Pokémon, put 1 damage counter on each of your opponent's Pokémon-ex between turns. The attack Derail lists 40 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. Discard a Special Energy card, if any, attached to the Defending Pokémon. Hyper Tail is another attack lists 60+ damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. If the Defending Pokémon has any Poké-Powers or Poké-Bodies, this attack does 60 damage plus 20 more damage. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The card text says: When Pokémon-ex has been Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.

I keep a set binder for Crystal Guardians, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Crystal Guardians set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Exploud can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards. I still need this card.
