Jigglypuff

Line 34:

[[bulbapedia:Jigglypuff (anime)|One particular Jigglypuff]] is a highly prominent and popular recurring character in the ''Pokémon'' anime series, often seen carrying a marker that resembles a microphone. It is well known for putting any human or Pokémon to sleep with its irresistible singing; however, this causes it to become angry and scribble over its audience's faces while they are asleep.

Jigglypuff's somewhat feminine appearance may lead others to refer to it as "she". Indeed, while there are both male and female Jigglypuff within the ''Pokémon'' universe, females are more common than males, with 75% of all Jigglypuff being female. However, per The Pokémon Company's stance on referring to Pokémon with gender neutral pronouns regardless of gender differences, the Jigglypuff in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is referred to as "it".

Jigglypuff is one of the four secret characters in ''Super Smash Bros.'' Despite not being a lead character in the ''Pokémon'' franchise, Jigglypuff was ~~selected~~ to appear in ~~the~~ ''~~Super Smash Bros.~~'' ~~series due to~~ its similarities to [[Kirby]], which allowed the staff to reuse ~~the model and many~~ animations as a base ~~for Jigglypuff~~, ~~though~~ Jigglypuff ~~has larger eyes, thinner limbs, and large, triangular ears, as well as~~ a ~~curled tuft~~ of ~~hair on on its head. It was also desirable because of its appearance in the ''Pokémon'' anime at the time (as well as~~ [[~~Mewtwo~~]], ~~who was originally intended to appear in ''SSB'')~~.

Jigglypuff is one of the four secret characters in ''Super Smash Bros.'' Despite not being a lead character in the ''Pokémon'' franchise, Jigglypuff was a desirable choice for the game for two primary reasons: its popular appearance in the anime at the time (a trait shared with [[Mewtwo]], who was also intended to appear in ''SSB''), and its physical similarities to [[Kirby]], which allowed the staff to reuse his animations as a base. Owing to this, Jigglypuff is considered a kind of [[semi-clone]], though later installments would fully declone it from Kirby.

Jigglypuff's [[Rest]] attack is considered to be one of the most powerful moves in the game. Aside from sharing similar physical characteristics with {{SSB|Kirby}}, its jumps are weaker than Kirby's. Jigglypuff is right in the middle of the [[tier]] list, being ranked 6 out of 12.
