Exploud Great Encounters 17/106
This Exploud card has a lot of text! Ambient Noise isn’t one complex effect but simply lets you flip two coins and lays out an effect for each possibility. I always like these cards that have a huge idea and then a flat damage attack to fit in underneath. It seems like the card designer was very proud of the first effect and based the card around it.
What’s even more fascinating about this Exploud is that it is the first Exploud to have less than three attacks. The first two Exploud cards had four, and Exploud ex had three. This is very bizarre, as Unseen Forces’ Tyranitar ex is the only other card ever to have four attacks. Unfortunately, there have only been eleven Exploud cards, but none of them have ever had just one attack.
