Jigglypuff first appeared in ''[[Pokémon Red]]'' and ''[[Pokémon green]]'', and is noted for being one of the cutest Pokémon in the series. Jigglypuff is similar to [[Kirby]] in appearance, but with larger eyes, thinner limbs, and large, triangular ears, as well as a curled tuft of hair on on its head. It is most-known for its singing ability, which puts anyone that can hear its song to sleep (ironically, while Sing is one of Jigglypuff's greatest assets and signature move in the games and anime, it is relatively useless in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' series). This trait was used comically in the anime where the same Jigglypuff would show up every few episodes, attempt to sing for everyone nearby, and then, upon finding that they all fell asleep during the song, draw on the faces of the "audience" with a marker hidden in its microphone. It may have been this recurring role in the anime, coupled with its cute appearance, that made Jigglypuff a popular enough Pokémon to be playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. The Jigglypuff that appears in all three Smash Bros. is a [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Shiny shiny] Jigglypuff, since its eyes are green, not the normal blue color. In the [[Pokémon (universe)|''Pokémon'' games]], shiny Pokémon are incredibly rare; the chances for finding one in the wild is 1/8192, since many different statistics must line up for a shiny Pokémon to be born. However, the first Smash Brothers game came out before Pokemon: Gold and Silver Versions, in which the idea of shiny pokemon was first established. Many players consider Jigglypuff to be the weakest character in the game, but this is actually a misconception based on its light weight, as Jigglypuff has consistently landed in middle tier since the first Super Smash Brothers, and professional players can use Jigglypuff to great effect in competition.

Creature description

Jigglypuff first appeared in Pokémon (Red/Blue), and is noted for being one of the cutest Pokémon in the series. Jigglypuff is similar to Kirby in appearance, but with larger eyes, thinner limbs, and large, triangular ears, as well as a curled tuft of hair on on its head. It is most-known for its singing ability, which puts anyone that can hear its song to sleep (ironically, while Sing is one of Jigglypuff's greatest assets and signature move in the games and anime, it is relatively useless in the Super Smash Bros. series). This trait was used comically in the anime where the same Jigglypuff would show up every few episodes, attempt to sing for everyone nearby, and then, upon finding that they all fell asleep during the song, draw on the faces of the "audience" with a marker hidden in its microphone. It may have been this recurring role in the anime, coupled with its cute appearance, that made Jigglypuff a popular enough Pokémon to be playable in Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros.
