| |
| '''Jigglypuff''', known in Japan as '''Purin''' ({{ja|プリン}}, ''Purin''), is a fictional creature in the [[Pokémon (universe)|''Pokémon'' media franchise]].
| |
|
| |
| It shares with [[Luigi]] the distinction of being an unlockable character in all three Smash Bros. games. Traditionally it was the first secret character to be unlocked, but ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' made it the '''last''' returning character to be accessible.
| |
|
| |
| ==Creature description==
| |
| Jigglypuff 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. This trait was used comically in the [[Pokémon (anime)|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 all three ''Super Smash Bros.'' titles.

| |
| :''Main article: [[Jigglypuff (SSB)]]''
| |
| Jigglypuff is one of the four secret characters in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and is considered to be the easiest one to unlock. Its [[Rest]] attack is considered to be one of the powerful moves in the game. Aside from sharing similar physical characteristics with [[Kirby (SSB)|Kirby]], it also shares the same jump as Kirby. Jigglypuff is in the middle of the [[tier]] list, directly above [[Mario (SSB)|Mario]].

| |
| [[Image:Jigglypuffmelee.jpg|thumb|85px|right]]
| |
| Jigglypuff returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' as one of the eleven secret characters. It is unlockable after clearing [[Classic]] or [[Adventure]] with any character, except [[Mario (SSBM)|Mario]] unless [[Dr. Mario (SSBM)|Dr. Mario]] is unlocked already. While originally directly above [[Mario (SSBM)|Mario]] on the [[tier list]], like in the original, Jigglypuff now ranks at a high 7th rank, thanks to a recent update, and like a few other characters, has a new [[Neutral B]] move, [[Rollout]], which replaces its previous standard special move, [[Pound]], which has become its [[Forward B]] move.
| |
|
| |
| ====In Single-player====
| |
| Jigglypuff appears on [[Classic Mode]] on any Pokémon stage and sometimes appears in a Doubles, Giant or a Team Match. In [[All-Star Mode]] Jigglypuff's stage is [[Poké Floats]].
| |
|
| |
| ===Trophies===
| |
| Jigglypuff has three [[trophy|trophies]] in its name, just like all the other playable characters; the original trophy, the Smash Red trophy, and the Smash Blue trophy. Its original trophy reads as follows:
| |
|
| |
| :''This Balloon Pokémon invites its opponents in close with its big, round eyes and then puts them to sleep with a soothing lullaby. It puffs itself up when angry, and while it may look adorable, it's not to be trifled with: it knows several powerful techniques. Jigglypuff evolves into Wigglytuff after exposure to a Moon Stone.''

| |
| ===As a playable character===
| |
| [[Image:Jigglypuff_in_Brawl.JPG|thumb|100px|right]]
| |
| :''Main article: [[Jigglypuff (SSBB)]]''
| |
| Jigglypuff appears once again in ''Brawl''. Jigglypuff appears the same as before, but is more difficult to unlock previous installations of the series, considering it was the 33rd character introduced on the Dojo and the last veteran character to be introduced.
| |
|
| |
| Jigglypuff's Final Smash is Puff Up. It inflates and gets larger and has the potential to knock out an opponent, and Jigglypuff is invulnerable during this form.

| |
|
| |

| |
|
| |
| ===Trophy Description===
| |
| :''A Balloon Pokémon. It invites opponents in close with its big, round eyes, then puts them to sleep with a calming song. The secret to the song's unfailing efficacy is Jigglypuff's ability to sing on the wavelength that will make its opponent the sleepiest. It also uses Attract to infatuate opponents who touch it. It uses a Moon Stone to evolve into Wigglytuff.''

| ==Trivia==
| |
| * 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 original ''Super Smash Bros.'', and professional players can use Jigglypuff to great effect in competition. There are arguments about Jigglypuff in [[Jigglypuff (SSBB)|Brawl]], however.
| |
| * 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. (universe)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]].
| |
| * Jigglypuff's character artwork has never changed throughout the Super Smash Bros. series.
| |
| * If held too long Jigglypuff's shield will break and fly vertically upwards, instantly giving the player a [[SD | self-destruct]]. This occurs in all three ''SSB'' games, however in some areas it provides a favorable advantage (''See [[Shield Jump]]'').
