{{iw|bulbapedia|Sing|move}} is based off a move of the same name in the {{uv|Pokémon}} games. Introduced in Generation I, Sing is a Normal-type status move that has the sole effect of putting the opponent to sleep. For some Pokémon like Jigglypuff and Blissey, this is the only move they can learn that puts the opponent to sleep, but Sing's very poor accuracy rate of 55% makes it unreliable.

Jigglypuff can also learn this move by levelling up; in ''Pokémon Red and Green'', it's the only move it can use until level 9, where it learns [[Pound]].


In every ''Pokémon'' generation, Jigglypuff's evolutionary family is well known for using this move. A particular {{iw|bulbapedia|Jigglypuff|anime}} in the ''Pokémon'' anime is a recurring character of the early seasons who wants to be applauded for its music but inadvertently puts people to sleep instead; in fact, the sound clip of Sing throughout the games is a combination of its game version and its anime version, as Jigglypuff intones the song with the same first syllables as in the anime.

{{iw|bulbapedia|Hyper Voice|move}}, included in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' as one of Sing's custom variants, is a Normal-type attack introduced in Generation III that can hit multiple opponents. Jigglypuff can also learn this move by leveling up.
