Jigglypuff

Jigglypuff is a Normal/Fairy-type Pokémon from the Pokémon series. Its first appearance was in the Japanese Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green, which later became the international Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Blue Version. Classified as the Balloon Pokémon, Jigglypuff evolves from Igglybuff and into Wigglytuff.

Super Smash Bros.


Jigglypuff is first seen in the original Super Smash Bros. Jigglypuff is one of the four unlockable characters, unlocked by clearing 1P Game once, and then defeating it on Saffron City. Jigglypuff is voiced by Rachael Lillis in English and Mika Kanai in the original Japanese, its respective voice actors in Pokémon media.

Jigglypuff was designed to be the weakest character in the game. Jigglypuff is the lightest playable character; while it has up to five midair jumps, tied with Kirby for the most, Jigglypuff can also be launched the easiest. In addition, when Jigglypuff's shield breaks, it is launched higher into the air than any other character, potentially KOing it. Jigglypuff also has a high air speed and the lowest falling speed, but also has low walking and dashing speeds. Its attacks are also slow and weak.

Jigglypuff's neutral special is Pound, in which it slaps an opponents. Its up special is Sing, which puts nearby opponents to sleep, and its down special is Rest, which sends any opponents close enough flying but puts Jigglypuff to sleep.

Super Smash Bros. Melee


Jigglypuff returns in Super Smash Bros. Melee. According to its page on the Japanese website, Sakurai was torn over whether to have Jigglypuff return or not, but kept it so as to not leave behind fans of the character. Like in the previous game it can be unlocked by clearing Classic mode, or by playing 50 Melee matches, and defeating it on Pokémon Stadium.

Like other re-introduced characters, Jigglypuff's neutral special move, Pound, was made into its side special move, and its new neutral special move is Rollout, which allows Jigglypuff to charge an attack in which it rolls across the screen. Its air speed has been increased for this game, giving it the highest air speed of any character. All of Jigglypuff's jumps also now give height, though the height given decreases as it continues to jump.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Jigglypuff returns as an unlockable character once again. It can be unlocked by clearing at least 20 Events after finishing The Subspace Emissary, playing 350 Brawl Matches, or having it join the party in The Subspace Emissary. Similar to the previous game, Jigglypuff (along with Wolf and Toon Link) was nearly cut from the game due to time constraints.

While Jigglypuff's general moveset is unchanged, it has been given a Final Smash, Puff Up. Jigglypuff increases in size dramatically, bouncing players off of it at great speed.

The Subspace Emissary
Like Toon Link and Wolf, it makes a rather minor Subspace Emissary appearance, and is the only veteran character who does not appear in the main story of the Subspace Emissary. After finding a red door in The Swamp stage, the player will be taken to Pokémon Stadium 2 and fight Jigglypuff in a one-stock match. Once defeated, it will join the player's party.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U
Jigglypuff returns once again as an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, and for the first time as a default playable character in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. It can be unlocked in the Nintendo 3DS version by collecting 30 pieces of equipment, or by winning 120 matches, and is the only playable Pokémon character to be unlockable in the game. All of its moves and its Final Smash from Super Smash Bros. Brawl are kept in this game.

Super Mario Maker
Jigglypuff appears as one of the Costume Mario costumes in Super Mario Maker, which can be unlocked either by using the Jigglypuff amiibo or by clearing 100 Mario Challenge on Normal difficulty or greater. Its sprite is based upon the overworld sprite used in the Nintendo DS Pokémon games. Like the other Pokémon costumes, Jigglypuff does not have any altered sound effects.

Super Smash Bros.
''The Balloon PKMN with the big, round eyes. It sings a soothing melody, sending those that hear it to sleep. When mad, it puffs itself up. As a Balloon PKMN, its body is light, weak, and easy to knock away.

Snake's codec

 * Snake: Aw, there's a big eyeball walking around here...
 * Colonel: That's just Jigglypuff.
 * Snake: Jigglypuff? Is that some kind of marshmallow?
 * Colonel: Jigglypuff is a balloon-shaped Pokémon. It may be light and puffy and full of air, but its Sleep ability is devastating.
 * Snake: Sleep...? What's so devastating about it going to sleep?
 * Colonel: The instant it falls asleep, there's a huge buildup of energy in its center of gravity. If it hits you, it's lights out for sure.
 * Snake: So it puts a lot of energy into sleeping? Sounds pretty irresponsible if you ask me.
 * Colonel: Takes all kinds, Snake. Especially here in Brawl.

Palutena's Guidance

 * Pit: That's Jigglypuff, the Balloon Pokémon.
 * Viridi: Look at the way it floats! It must be light as air.
 * Palutena: Don't let it's cuddly appearance fool you. Its one of the most aerodynamic fighters out there. And it has a deadly attack called Rest. When Jigglypuff lands the move, the effects can be devastating.
 * Viridi: However, that move does render Jigglypuff vulnerable for a short period of time afterward.
 * Palutena: So when you see Jigglypuff start to fall asleep, that's your cue to move in for the kill.
 * Pit: Gotcha. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for when it nods off.

amiibo

 * This Normal- and Fairy-type Pokémon is best known for its soothing singing, which can make foes fall asleep. The secret to the song’s effectiveness is Jigglypuff’s ability to sing on the wavelength that will make its opponent the sleepiest. It also uses Attract to infatuate foes of the opposite gender.

Trivia

 * Jigglypuff only has five recolors in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, instead of the usual six. This is also shared with Pokémon Trainer, Lucario, and Sonic.
 * Jigglypuff is the only starting fighter in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U to have a character-specific challenge that's immune to the Golden Hammer.
