 As in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', {{s|wikipedia|Rachael Lillis}}' portrayal of Jigglypuff from ''Smash 64'' was repurposed for the English version of ''Ultimate'', in place of {{s|wikipedia|Michele Knotz}}, who currently voices it in the ''Pokémon anime''. {{s|wikipedia|Mika Kanai}}, Jigglypuff's voice actress from all previous ''Smash'' games and the ''Pokémon'' anime, reprises her role in the Japanese version, with new voice clips. Virginie Demians and Dina Kuerten's portrayals of Jigglypuff from ''Brawl'' were repurposed for the French and German versions.
-Jigglypuff is ranked 59th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it in C+ tier. This is a striking improvement from its placement in ''Smash 4'' where it was ranked as the absolute worst character in the game. Jigglypuff's strength lies in its superb aerial game, which is the result of long-lasting [[Aerial attack|aerials]] that, combined with its fast [[air speed]] and multiple [[jump]]s can be used to wall out its opponents offstage. Jigglypuff also has a much easier time killing due to its quicker KO options, new KO setups, and more reliable [[Rest]] combos. Rest itself has more knockback and less endlag if Jigglypuff lands it, allowing Jigglypuff to escape potential punishes. Finally, Jigglypuff's ground game has been improved: its [[jab]] can confirm into [[back aerial]] or [[dash attack]] at high percents, its [[up tilt]] can combo into its other aerials and even Rest in some scenarios, and its [[forward throw]] can send opponents at a low angle, making it easier for Jigglypuff to utilize its strong edgeguards.

 However, Jigglypuff still possesses many flaws. It still has very low range on its moves which makes it struggle against opponents with long range and characters who could [[Camping|camp]] very well. Its [[neutral game]] still remains poor due to its horrible grounded mobility and linear [[Approach|approach options]], and it can have a difficult time hitting opponents that outspeed it. Finally, Jigglypuff's survivability is poor due to its low weight making it susceptible to KOs at an earlier percent than normal, and as a result, it's susceptible to trades at higher percents.
