'''Rest''' (referred to as '''Sleep''' on the original <i>SSB</i>'s website) is [[Jigglypuff]]'s [[Down Special Move]] in all three ''Smash'' games. Jigglypuff turns toward the camera and falls asleep for several seconds. Before Jigglypuff falls asleep, any opponent in contact with it is instantly hit. This attack is known for having high [[knockback]], no startup lag, very small range, and a long vulnerability period. However, Jigglypuff gains invincibility frames for approximately the time it takes to close its eyes.

The Smash Bros. version of Rest is completely different from the Pokémon version. In Pokémon, Rest dealt no damage at all, instead, it put the user to sleep for two turns in exchange for the user gaining all of it's HP back, and healing any status ailments. This is another example of the Smash producers changing the function of moves to suit the games. Other examples include [[Withdraw]] and [[Double Team]].
