Loudred (Japanese: ドゴーム Dogohmb) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It evolves from Whismur starting at level 20 and evolves into Exploud starting at level 40.
Biology
Loudred is a purple, bipedal Pokémon with a square build. It has a large mouth with yellow lips and peg-like teeth in each corner. When its mouth is open, its large tongue and throat are visible. Above its prominent mouth is a stubby nose. On top of its head are two short stalks that support its circular ears. The inside of its ears have alternating black and purple rings, but there is only a single black ring on the back. There are yellow stripes on its back in a pattern that resembles sound waves. It has arms with three fingers and short legs with two peg-like toes. On the sole of each foot is a yellow circle.
Loudred is able to shout at high volumes by inhaling, then exhaling using powerful stomach muscles. Additionally, its round ears serve as loudspeakers and it will stomp its feet to build power. Its powerful voice can tip trucks, splinter wooden houses, and blow away its opponents, but it will be temporarily deaf when it finishes shouting. Loudred can be found in caves.

Major appearances
Loudred (recurring)
The recurring Loudred in the anime
Loudred first appeared in A Hole Lotta Trouble, where it ran by and stepped on Jessie as she was climbing up to the next floor of Granite Cave. In the next episode, Jessie accidentally stepped on Loudred as it was sleeping. Loudred then sent her, James, and Meowth flying with an extremely loud Screech attack.
In Turning Over a Nuzleaf, Ash's Corphish pinched Loudred's ear, which made the wild Pokémon go berserk. In its rage, Loudred caused Silcoon to roll out of May's arms and down into a cave system. The group's other Pokémon followed after Silcoon, but ended up becoming separated from their Trainers. Later, Wobbuffet emerged from its Poké Ball and stood on Loudred as it slept. It subsequently woke up and promptly sent Team Rocket flying.
Professor Birch became startled by an angry Wingull while looking at its nest and fell directly on Loudred in A Three Team Scheme!. Loudred angrily screeched at him before leaving underground.
It reappeared in a flashback in Exploud and Clear!.

Other
In Gotta Dance!!, a Loudred would keep showing up whenever the Poké-Baton was activated, along with a 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 mad.
In Exploud and Clear, Guy owns a Loudred. When Ash challenged Guy to a Pokémon battle, both Loudred and Treecko evolved at the same time.
In Rough, Tough Jigglypuff, Mitch Mitchum had caught a Loudred because he thought its Soundproof Ability would make it immune to sound-based moves and thus help him catch a Jigglypuff for his daughter's birthday.
In the Hoopa's Surprise Ring Adventures short Wake Up, Hoopa summoned a Loudred to use its sound-based attacks to wake Ash, but to no avail.
