Jigglypuff, known in Japan as Purin (, Purin), is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise.

It shares with Luigi the distinction of being an unlockable character in all three Smash Bros. games. Traditionally, it was the first secret character to be unlocked.

Creature description
Jigglypuff first appears as one of the 151 species of Pokémon in the Pokémon Red and Blue Versions, and appears in all versions following after it. Despite not being a lead character in the Pokémon franchise, Jigglypuff was selected to appear in the Super Smash Bros. series due to its similarities to Kirby, which allowed the staff to reuse the model and many animations as a base for Jigglypuff.

Jigglypuff is similar to Kirby in appearance, but with larger eyes, thinner limbs, and large, triangular ears, as well as a curled tuft of hair on on its head. This somewhat feminine appearance has led to many smashers and others who have not played Pokémon to refer to Jigglypuff as "she". Within the Pokémon world, there are both male and female Jigglypuff, and females are more common than males, but the Smash character is always referred to as "it".

The 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.

Jigglypuff returns in Super Smash Bros. Melee as one of the eleven secret characters. It is unlockable after clearing Classic or Adventure with any character, except Mario unless Dr. Mario is unlocked already. While originally directly above Mario on the tier list, Jigglypuff now ranks at 1st, tied with Fox and Falco. Thanks to a recent update, and like a few other characters, it has a new Neutral B move, Rollout, which replaces its previous standard special move, Pound, which has become its Forward B move.

In Single-player
Jigglypuff appears on Classic Mode on any Pokémon stage and sometimes appears in a Doubles, Giant or a Team Match. In All-Star Mode Jigglypuff's home stage is Poké Floats.

Trophies
Jigglypuff has three trophies in its name, just like all the other playable characters; the original trophy, the Smash Red trophy, and the Smash Blue trophy. Its original trophy reads as follows:


 * This Balloon Pokémon invites its opponents in close with its big, round eyes and then puts them to sleep with a soothing lullaby. It puffs itself up when angry, and while it may look adorable, it's not to be trifled with: it knows several powerful techniques. Jigglypuff evolves into Wigglytuff after exposure to a Moon Stone.
 * Pokémon Red & Blue, 09/98

Jigglypuff appears once again in Brawl. Jigglypuff appears the same as before, but is more difficult to unlock previous installations of the series, considering it was the 33rd character introduced on the Dojo and the last veteran character to be introduced. Jigglypuff's Final Smash is Puff Up. It inflates and gets larger and pushes any character off the stage, and Jigglypuff is invulnerable during this form. Jigglypuff ranks 35 out of 38 on the current tier list,which is a huge nerf from melee.

Trivia

 * Though some people think that Jigglypuff's appearance never changed through out the series, it has. Jigglypuff's arms are positioned more outward in Melee and the position changed back to what it was in the original game in Brawl. Also, in the original SSB, the light in Jigglypuff's eyes was in the opposite direction than in Melee and Brawl.
 * Jigglypuff makes the same noise as being Star KO'd as when it's Final Smash is finished.
 * If held too long, Jigglypuff's shield will break and fly vertically upwards, instantly giving the player a self-destruct. This occurs in all three Smash games, however, in some areas, it provides a favorable advantage (See Shield Jump).
