Jigglypuff is voiced by Rachael Lillis in English via reused voice clips from ''Smash 64'', and by Mika Kanai in Japanese via voice clips last used in ''Smash 64'', ''Melee'', and some new ones. It is also voiced by Virginie Demians and Dina Kuerten in French and German, respectively, replacing Guilaine Gilbert and Mara Winzer from ''Melee'', the latter two also voicing the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} in the French and German versions of ''Brawl''.

Jigglypuff is ranked 36th on the ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' tier list in the bottom tier, a massive drop from its 3rd place ranking in the ''Melee'' tier list. Jigglypuff possesses incredible [[air speed|air mobility]], a good aerial game, some of the strongest edgeguarding, and one of the best recoveries in the game. The reason for its huge tier drop comes indirectly from the way its best attributes transitioned to ''Brawl''. Like {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}, Jigglypuff's combos were more reliant on [[hitstun]] than other characters, and its excellent edguarding abilities came from ''Melee''{{'}}s much harsher disadvantage states. Jigglypuff has also had its KO moves nerfed, with Rest in particular suffering greatly; as opposed to KOing under 25% like it did in ''Melee'', it does not reliably KO until around 75%, and it is much harder to land due to the ability to cancel hitstun and the cast's reduced [[falling speed]]s preventing combos into it. In addition to this, Jigglypuff has terrible range, one of the worst ground games, the worst endurance of any character in ''Brawl'' (exacerbated by ''Brawl''{{'}}s defensive play), attacks that are punishable on landing, and poor air to ground transitioning due to its floaty physics preventing it from approaching safely in many situations. Such factors combine to result in awful [[matchup]]s and [[tournament]] results. Thanks to the huge nerfs and terrible transitioning to ''Brawl''{{'}}s meta, Jigglypuff holds distinction of having the largest tier list drop between ''Melee'' and ''Brawl''. What's more, Jigglypuff's position in Europe and Japan is worse than it is in America. In America, it is ranked as the 3rd worst character, while it is ranked as the 2nd worst and worst character in the game in Europe and Japan, respectively.

*[[Masahiro Sakurai]] stated that Jigglypuff, along with {{SSBB|Toon Link}} and {{SSBB|Wolf}}, were almost cut from ''Brawl'' due to time constraints and their late consideration for inclusion in the game, hence why they are excluded from and cannot be unlocked while playing through the main [[Subspace Emissary]] story.<ref>[http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/08/17/sakuraibrawlquestions/]</ref>

**Jigglypuff is also the only veteran who does not have a Subspace Emissary role.

***Likely because of its late inclusion, there is an oddity with the [[character selection screen]] in The Subspace Emissary. While all other characters are ordered by when they joined the ''Smash'' series (minus {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}} due to sharing a slot with {{SSBB|Samus}}), Jigglypuff is placed with the ''Brawl'' newcomers rather than with the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' veterans.

*In the American and PAL versions, Jigglypuff has only two [[KO]] screams — one for a [[Star KO]] and another for a normal KO. Jigglypuff is the only character in ''Brawl'' to have a single blast line KO clip.

*Jigglypuff’s official artwork is nearly identical to its ''Melee'' [[Smabura-Ken]] artwork. The only difference is that its arms are pointed slightly inward rather than outward.
