Jigglypuff has the most notable shield jump, because unlike other characters, whose shield jump height is negligible, Jigglypuff<nowiki>'s</nowiki> height is extremely high, causing it to fly far above the upper blast line. This almost always causes it to self-destruct. | Jigglypuff has the most notable shield jump, because unlike other characters, whose shield jump height is negligible, Jigglypuff<nowiki>'s</nowiki> height is extremely high, causing it to fly far above the upper blast line.

The reason Jigglypuff's shield jump is so high has never been explained. Some smashers claim it acts as a way to "punish" Jigglypuff for having a large shield in proportion to its body, though this is rejected by others due to the fact that other small characters such as Kirby and Olimar lack a similar property with their shields. | The reason Jigglypuff's shield jump is so high has never been explained.

It may simply have to do with Jigglypuff being the "Balloon Pokémon", in which the extremity of the jump is in reference to popping a balloon. | ||
