Jigglypuff is notorious for not receiving any direct changes despite being unilaterally considered a bottom-tier character. However, the changes to shield mechanics in updates [[1.1.0]] and [[1.1.1]] indirectly nerfed Jigglypuff, as the increased [[shieldstun]] makes its susceptibility to being instantly KO'd by having its shield broken more of a liability. Conversely, these changes also make Jigglypuff's attacks slightly safer on shield (most notably its back aerial) and benefits Pound's high shield damage output, slightly improving its limited approach. It also slightly benefits from the nerfs given to some of its hardest matchups in game updates, such as {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}}, {{SSB4|Sheik}}, {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}}, and {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}, however, it is the only bottom tier fighter to have never received a single buff, and as such, is currently considered the worst fighter in the game. Overall, Jigglypuff fares considerably worse relative to the cast than it did during the initial release, due to not receiving any truly significant changes from game updates.
