According to MetalKid:
70.41% - 82.99%
That's not a counter, it should be able to switch in to it taking less than 50% Damage. Once they switch in their Infernape counter and force you out, next time you switch Infernape into Exploud you die. A mediocre counter, if one at all.

-HP Ground

He wins. Protects when he needs to recover a little more.
Is everyone is SUCH a huge hurry that they can't post simple EV spreads/natures? I mean, yes, it's easy to guess, but it really wouldn't kill you.
