The {{s|bulbapedia|Pokédex}} provides additional biological info about the Jigglypuff species: After it mesmerizes its foe with its large, round eyes, it sings its lullaby until the foe sleeps, and does not stop to breathe until the foe is fully asleep; it can perform longer with its single breath if it inflates its body with air beforehand. Its vocal chords can freely adjust the wavelength of its voice, and it sings at precisely the right wavelength to make its foes most drowsy. The sound waves of its singing voice match the brain waves of someone in a deep sleep. Nothing can avoid falling asleep after hearing a Jigglypuff's song, but some are more naturally resistant to the effects than others and take much longer to sleep. This effectively endangers a singing Jigglypuff's life because it cannot breathe. | The {{s|bulbapedia|Pokédex}} provides additional biological info about the Jigglypuff species: After it mesmerizes its foe with its large, round eyes, it sings its lullaby until the foe sleeps, and does not stop to breathe until the foe is fully asleep; it can perform longer with its single breath if it inflates its body with air beforehand.

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 Nintendo'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's somewhat feminine appearance may lead others to refer to it as "she".

However, per Nintendo'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". This is most likely due to the fact that Jigglypuff was created long before Pokémon were given genders at the time of the first game's release, not seen until Generation II. | ||
