The combo essentially works because the space animals' high [[gravity]] and [[falling speed]] places them much lower than other characters after a low-damage up throw, low enough that Jigglypuff can jump into them and Rest before they get out of [[hitstun]]. While the target's initial damage must be low enough for Jigglypuff to get there in time, the combo can still score a clean [[KO]] depending on the stage and positioning, which puts a large swing on the match. | The combo essentially works because the space animals' high [[gravity]] and [[falling speed]] places them much lower than other characters after a low-damage up throw, low enough that Jigglypuff can jump into them and Rest before they get out of [[hitstun]].

While generally inescapable, [[DI]]'ing the up throw can put the victim far enough away that the Rest is a [[phantom hit]], though this is of course unreliable. Should the Rest connect, the victim should attempt to sideways rather than up, as being [[Star KO]]'d will allow Jigglypuff to wake up before they can respawn and make a [[punish]] attempt. | While generally inescapable, [[DI]]'ing the up throw can put the victim far enough away that the Rest is a [[phantom hit]], though this is of course unreliable.
