It evolves from Whismur starting at level 20, and evolves into Exploud starting at level 40.

Biology

Physiology

Loudred are medium-sized purple creatures that are somewhat "boxy" in shape. They have a huge mouth with yellow lips and peg like teeth on each corner. They also have two spherical ears on the ends of stalks. In the back they have a yellow pattern that resembles sound waves.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Much like the rest of the family, it is capable of ear-splitting noise.

Behavior

Unlike Whismur, Loudred tend to be very loud and very active. They also tend to be very irritable and are quick to anger at times. In battle, it tends punish its foes by screaming at it.

In the anime

Loudred in the anime

Loudred first appeared during the "Dewford Island" series arc. (A Hole Lotta Trouble-Just One of the Geysers).

Loudred also kept showing up in Gotta Dance!! whenever the Poké-Baton was activated along with Ludicolo. Unlike Ludicolo, who seemingly disappeared into thin air every time the Poké-Baton was deactivated, Loudred would stare blankly for a brief time before finally leaving. When the Poké-Baton finally shorted out, Loudred went completely mad.

Loudred also appeared under the ownership of Guy in Exploud and Clear. When Ash challenged Guy to a Pokémon Battle, both Guy's Loudred and Ash's Treecko evolved at the same time.

Loudred also appeared in Rough, Tough Jigglypuff. Mitch Mitchum had captured it because he thought that the Big Voice Pokémon's ability to be immune to sound-based moves would help him to catch a Jigglypuff for his daughter's birthday.

Loudred appeared in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness special as a member of the Wigglytuff Guild.

A Loudred appeared in Camping It Up!.
