Jigglypuff is one of the four secret characters in ''Super Smash Bros.'' Despite not being a lead character in the ''Pokémon'' franchise, Jigglypuff was a desirable choice for the game for two primary reasons: its popular appearance in the anime at the time (a trait shared with [[Mewtwo]], who was also intended to appear in ''SSB''), and its physical similarities to [[Kirby]], which allowed the staff to reuse his animations as a base. Additionally, while [[Clefairy]] was also under consideration as a popular Pokemon that could be created with Kirby as the base, Jigglypuff won out because its character was considered more fitting for it.<ref>[https://archive.org/details/64dream-may-1999-ozidual/64Dream%201999%2005%20%28J%20OCR%29/page/n91/mode/2up?view=theater The 64 DREAM May 1999, p. 91]. | Jigglypuff is one of the four secret characters in ''Super Smash Bros.''

Jigglypuff's [[Rest]] attack is considered to be one of the most powerful moves in the game. Aside from sharing similar physical characteristics with {{SSB|Kirby}}, its jumps are weaker than Kirby's. Jigglypuff is right in the middle of the [[tier]] list, being ranked 6 out of 12. | Jigglypuff's [[Rest]] attack is considered to be one of the most powerful moves in the game.
