Jigglypuff ranks 6th, right in the middle of the [[tier list]], in the B tier. It is notable for being the lightest, floatiest, and lowest gravity character in the game. Jigglypuff has many low [[knockback]] attacks, which when combined with its floatiness, can be abused to its advantage in several combos against heavier characters, especially by gimping them or carrying them all the way to the lateral blast lines. It also has some moves with disproportionate power, like its up smash, back throw, and the famous [[Rest]]. However, because Jigglypuff is so light and floaty, it is very easy to KO. In addition, Jigglypuff lacks a rising [[up special]] move for recovery, forcing it to rely on its remaining midair jumps and [[Pound]] to recover.
