When used, Jigglypuff slowly inflates itself to a very large size, enough to almost entirely cover a small [[custom stage]]. While growing, enemies and items will be pushed away. Once Jigglypuff reaches its full size, it shouts "JIGGLY!!!" and shrinks.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', when Jigglypuff shouts, it causes a massive [[push]] that will most likely [[KO]] any enemies too close to its body, especially if they have used up their [[jump]]s trying to avoid it, or prevent them from recovering. While Jigglypuff is deflating, it will cause 17% damage and powerful semi-spiking [[knockback]] upon contact, similar in power to the push effect. This is in effect until Jigglypuff is back to its original size, making contact dangerous until the Final Smash ends.

This is in effect until Jigglypuff is back to its original size, making contact dangerous until the Final Smash ends.


Puff Up received some changes in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. Instead of producing a large windbox when Jigglypuff shouts, the move instead hits one time for 17% damage, and has no hitbox as it shrinks. This lowers the move's potential damage output, and makes it worse at gimping recoveries, but makes it easier to deal some damage to the opponent, and makes the move more effective at higher percents, as the former windbox used set knockback.
Puff Up received some changes in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. Jigglypuff now grows to a larger size and the push hitbox now scales with damage instead of being set knockback, making it weaker at lower percents. The damaging hitbox was also changed to only be at the beginning of the deflation, only hitting once instead of allowing multiple like in ''Brawl''.


Puff Up was changed again in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Jigglypuff now looks angry instead of it default appearance of a smile and fully-opened eyes. Just like other Final Smashes in ''Ultimate'', this one is faster, both in inflating and deflating. Once fully inflated, Jigglypuff will shout as usual, and then quickly and briefly expand further and "pop" before rapidly deflating. It now deals 10% damage with set knockback when Jigglypuff shouts and then an additional 25% with the "pop" instead of a 17% from the prior games. It is also no longer a semi-spike, but does more knockback overall. This makes the move much less suited for gimping, but harder to avoid getting hit by, especially when used under the stage, and more offensive-oriented.

While the move covers a very large range, it loses potency quickly on larger stages, and cannot affect anything below Jigglypuff (though this can be remedied by having Jigglypuff start the attack from below the stage, which will let it expand up and ''through'' the stage). It also pushes teammates regardless of if [[Team Attack]] is on or off. Additionally, the move can be avoided on smaller stages by fighters with good recoveries, or by exploiting ledge invincibility, however some fighters may struggle to avoid the move, and in free-for-alls it's very likely that at least one opponent will be hit by the move.

{{Main|Regenerating terrain glitch}}
There is a [[glitch]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' where the terrain in some stages (such as [[Bridge of Eldin]]) touches Jigglypuff and knocks it out of the move, yet it remains the same size it was when it was forced out of the Final Smash. If Yoshi (or Kirby with Yoshi's ability) uses his [[Egg Lay]] on Jigglypuff after this, or Jigglypuff picks up a Super Mushroom, its size doubles, allowing Jigglypuff to become the biggest character in the game.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-TxTxgKwAQ Puff Up and Egg Lay]</ref> Its size resets when it uses the Final Smash again or gets KO'd. As a pun on its enormous size, the glitch Jigglypuff is often called "Bigglypuff", "Gigapuff", or "Gigalypuff" by fans. When the glitch is performed, Jigglypuff will still have the strength it had when it was at its standard size. Jigglypuff will appear to move very slowly, having the illusion of not being able to jump very high, as well as falling slowly, all attributes equal to when it was at its regular size. As a result of these large hitboxes, should Jigglypuff roll or use its forward smash with the glitch, it will likely [[self-destruct]], as if any hitboxes come in contact with the [[blast line]], Jigglypuff will be KO'd.

Although Puff Up is not an attack in any {{uv|Pokémon}} game, Jigglypuff - as the "Balloon" Pokémon - is stated in the {{s|bulbapedia|Pokédex}} to be capable of inflating its balloon-like body, and its {{s|bulbapedia|evolution}} {{pkmn|Wigglytuff}} is described as being able to inflate to incredible sizes. These abilities are shown in various media such as its appearances in the anime, where [[bulbapedia:Jigglypuff (anime)|a recurring individual Jigglypuff]] would "puff up" when angered (which would be further referenced in ''Ultimate'', with Jigglypuff making a near-identical expression during the Final Smash), notably growing to an incredibly large size [[bulbapedia:EP062|on one occasion]] during a visual gag, and [[bulbapedia:EP072|one particular instance]] of a [[bulbapedia:Giant Pokémon#Ancient giant Pokémon|giant Jigglypuff]] that fought a giant {{pkmn|Alakazam}} and {{pkmn|Gengar}}.

Years later, ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Sword and Shield}}'' would introduce the concept of {{s|bulbapedia|Dynamax}}ing, where a Pokémon can temporarily increase its size and power immensely. While Jigglypuff didn't initially have access to Dynamax due to being cut from the game, it was later re-added in {{s|bulbapedia|The Isle of Armor}} DLC.
