[[Jigglypuff]] has the most notable shield jump out of every character. In every ''Smash Bros.'' title, damaging Jigglypuff's shield makes it shield jump extremely high, due to a large amount of knockback from the break. Under most circumstances, Jigglypuff passes the upper blast line and gets [[KO]]ed. This can only be prevented by a ceiling or if another characters inflicts knockback on Jigglypuff as it flies. The very high speed of Jigglypuff's jump can likely make the ceiling stop the self-destruct. If the shield jump is stopped by a ceiling, it cannot be [[tech]]ed. | [[Jigglypuff]] has the most notable shield jump out of every character.

Due to changes with the upper blast line's behaviour in ''Smash 4'', Jigglypuff can only be Blast KO'd. Star KOs or Screen KOs are ineffective against Jigglypuff from a shield jump because of its jumping speed. This appears to have been reverted in ''Ultimate''. | Due to changes with the upper blast line's behaviour in ''Smash 4'', Jigglypuff can only be Blast KO'd, unless it is [[Poison Mushroom|tiny]] on a large stage like [[Palutena's Temple]].

It is never officially explained within the games why Jigglypuff has a high shield jump. | It is never officially explained within the games why Jigglypuff has a high shield jump. | ||
