{{s|wikipedia|Rachael Lillis}}' portrayal of Jigglypuff from ''Smash 64'' was reused in the English version of ''Ultimate''; this was despite {{s|wikipedia|Michele Knotz}} voicing it in the ''Pokémon'' anime at the time and voicing other Pokémon in ''Ultimate'', which was the last time that Lillis voice Jigglypuff before retiring from voice acting in 2019. {{s|wikipedia|Mika Kanai}}, the voice of Jigglypuff from all previous ''Smash'' games and the ''Pokémon'' anime, reprises her role in the Japanese version with a new voice track. Virginie Demians and Dina Kuerten's portrayals of Jigglypuff from ''Brawl'' were reused in the French and German versions. | {{s|wikipedia|Rachael Lillis}}' portrayal of Jigglypuff from ''Smash 64'' was reused in the English version of ''Ultimate''; this was despite {{s|wikipedia|Michele Knotz}} voicing it in the ''Pokémon'' anime at the time and voicing other Pokémon in ''Ultimate'', which was the last time that Lillis voice Jigglypuff before retiring from voice acting in 2019. {{s|wikipedia|Mika Kanai}}, the voice of Jigglypuff from all previous ''Smash'' games and the ''Pokémon'' anime, reprises her role in the Japanese version with a new voice track.

Jigglypuff is ranked 60th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it | Jigglypuff is ranked 60th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it in C+ tier. This is a great improvement over its last place ranking in ''Smash 4''. Jigglypuff's strength lies in its superb aerial game, which is the result of long-lasting [[Aerial attack|aerials]] that, combined with its excellent air mobility and multiple [[jump]]s, can be used to wall out its opponents offstage. Jigglypuff also has a much easier time killing due to its quicker KO options, new KO setups, and more reliable [[Rest]] combos. Rest itself has more knockback and less endlag if Jigglypuff lands it, allowing Jigglypuff to escape potential punishes. Finally, Jigglypuff's ground game has been improved: its [[jab]] can confirm into [[back aerial]] or [[dash attack]] at high percents, its [[up tilt]] can combo into its other aerials and even Rest in some scenarios, and its [[forward throw]] can send opponents at a low angle, making it easier for Jigglypuff to utilize its strong edgeguards. | ||
However, Jigglypuff still possesses several flaws. It still lacks range on its moveset, which causes it to struggle against opponents with long/disjointed range and characters who excel in [[camping]]. Its [[neutral game]] still remains poor due to its horrible grounded mobility and linear options to [[approach]] its opponent, and it can have a difficult time hitting opponents that outspeed it. Finally, Jigglypuff's survivability is poor due to its low [[weight]] making it susceptible to KOs at an earlier percent than normal, and as a result, it is susceptible to trades at higher percents. | However, Jigglypuff still possesses several flaws.
