Jigglypuff is ranked 59th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it in C+ tier. This is a significant 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. | Jigglypuff is ranked 59th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it in C+ tier.

However, Jigglypuff still possesses | 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. | ||
Overall, Jigglypuff's weaknesses balance out its strengths as it | Overall, Jigglypuff's weaknesses balance out its strengths as it is a character who struggles a lot to get in, but has the ability to beat just about any character with only a few openings. Despite the character's inconsistencies and a small playerbase, Jigglypuff has seen strong representation at a major level thanks to players such as {{Sm|BassMage}} and {{Sm|Senra}}. | ||
