'''Jigglypuff''' ({{ja|プリン|Purin}}'', Purin'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It was revealed alongside the fellow ''Pokémon'' fighter {{SSBU|Pichu}} and the rest of [[veteran]]s on June 12th, 2018.

Jigglypuff is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #12]], the last fighter number of the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' [[veteran]]s.

{{s|wikipedia|Rachael Lillis}}' portrayal of Jigglypuff from ''Smash 64'' was reused in the English version of ''Ultimate''; this was despite {{s|wikipedia|Michele Knotz}} voicing it in the ''Pokémon'' anime at the time and voicing other Pokémon in ''Ultimate''. This is also Lillis' last game featuring her voice for Jigglypuff before passing away on August 10th, 2024. {{s|wikipedia|Mika Kanai}}, the voice of Jigglypuff from all previous ''Smash'' games and the ''Pokémon'' anime, reprises her role in the Japanese version with a new voice track for the first time since ''Smash 64''. Virginie Demians and Dina Kuerten's portrayals of Jigglypuff from ''Brawl'' were reused in the French and German versions.

Jigglypuff is ranked 60th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it at the end of the C+ tier. This is a great improvement over its last place ranking in ''Smash 4''. Jigglypuff's strength lies in its superb aerial game, which is the result of long-lasting [[Aerial attack|aerials]] that, combined with its excellent air mobility and multiple [[jump]]s, can be used to wall out its opponents offstage. Jigglypuff also has a much easier time killing due to its quicker KO options, new KO setups, and more reliable [[Rest]] combos. Rest itself has more knockback and less endlag if Jigglypuff lands it, allowing Jigglypuff to escape potential punishes. Finally, Jigglypuff's ground game has been improved: its [[jab]] can confirm into [[back aerial]] or [[dash attack]] at high percents, its [[up tilt]] can combo into its other aerials and even Rest in some scenarios, and its [[forward throw]] can send opponents at a low angle, making it easier for Jigglypuff to utilize its strong edgeguards.
