However, Jigglypuff also retains its glaring weaknesses, as it still suffers from a very weak ground game due to its slow mobility, short [[reach]], and lackluster [[grab]] game with no guaranteed throw combos. Jigglypuff also has severe issues KOing, with laggy finishers and Rest being very difficult to land without a hard [[read]]. Its endurance is unarguably the worst, as it is extremely floaty and possesses the lowest [[weight]] stat in the game. While this low weight can allow it to escape from what are usually true combos, this does not make up for the frailty that results from it. This is exacerbated by the new [[rage]] mechanic and weaker [[shield]]s, the latter making its instant death [[shield jump]] even more dangerous.

Overall, Jigglypuff's weaknesses almost completely nullify its strengths, which has resulted in it remaining a bottom-tier character. When coupled with its lack of any buffs via patches, Jigglypuff has received virtually no tournament representation or results at high levels of play. However, it does have some positive results to its credit; {{Sm|Hungrybox}}, {{Sm|Serynder}}, and {{Sm|CrazieCuban}} have performed decently with it at regional tournaments, while {{Sm|LeeT}} notably placed 33rd at [[Shine 2016]] while exclusively using Jigglypuff as a solo main.

There is also another Mexican player know as {{MasterPUFFY}} who recently placed 13th at [[Smash Factor Predule #1]] and 17th at [[Concomics 2016]] defeating some notable players from Mexico such as HY Yura and Andy.
