(Turns what chrisalash put wasn't 100% wrong, just some nuance in what was actually observed (didn't charge faster, but was able to turn around faster). My testing resulted in about 7-8 frame difference. Weird that the grass interaction was only passingly mentioned on terrain and not here)

'''Rollout''' ({{ja|ころがる|Korogaru}}, ''Roll'') is [[Jigglypuff]]'s [[neutral special move]] since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', replacing [[Pound]].


:''For the combo video, see [[Rollout (video)]]''
==Overview==
Rollout can be charged by holding the special button and is executed by releasing it. Charging raises the speed, damage, and [[knockback]] of the attack. Jigglypuff can change direction back and forth during the Rollout, but only when grounded. The grounded version deals high horizontal knockback that KOs at relatively low percentages, whereas the aerial version sends the opponent straight upward. If the aerial version hits an opponent, Jigglypuff will continue to spin and be unable to act until it takes damage or lands. Hitting an opponent causes Jigglypuff to rebound for a short distance.


'''Rollout''' is a [[special move]] used by [[Jigglypuff]] in [[Melee]] and [[Brawl]], which is executed with the [[B button]], and charged by holding it. When releasing the B button, Jigglypuff will roll, the more charged, the faster the attack is. It is a speed attack, and deals high horizontal knockback and when "fully charged" does 18% damage. Hitting an opponent causes Jigglypuff to "rebound" a small distance.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
It is capable of dealing 18% damage when fully charged (when the higher-pitch sound has started). If used in the air or off of a ledge, Jigglypuff takes a long time to end the move, so it's best used on the ground. Additionally, if the move ends while Jigglypuff is in the air, it will enter a [[helpless]] state. If Jigglypuff collides with a wall and the control stick is tilted towards the wall, it will continuously rebound off the wall until the move ends. When changing direction on grass [[terrain]], Jigglypuff comes to a complete stop sooner than on other terrains, allowing it to turn around a several [[frame]]s faster.


The knockback is usually a low diagonal. When Rollout is used in the air, the opponent is sent straight upward.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
The move can now "curve" in midair to prevent going off the side of the stage. This can even go to a degree where Jigglypuff is falling straight down, spinning and, when it lands, it will move in the opposite direction. Jigglypuff will also no longer be put in a helpless state if the move ends while it is in midair.


There are two stages of being "fully charged" in Brawl:
If Jigglypuff now collides with a wall, but the control stick is still tilted towards the wall, Jigglypuff will strike the wall again, then rapidly spin against it, emitting blue shock waves and a drilling noise, and causing pure vertical knockback to anyone who is hit.  
*Fully Charged - The higher pitch sound has started and the sparkles are on full and are  coloured
*Super Charged - The controller will rumble (about 1 second after Fully Charged). Using a Super Charged Rollout will not cause any more damage or knockback, but Jigglypuff will roll further, and be less affected by gravity when it travels through the air.


While being performed, one can change direction back and forth. On stages in Melee's Adventure Mode, it is often considered one of the fastest ways to move around.
Interestingly, Rollout can reflect {{SSBB|Snake}}'s [[Remote Missile]] despite being unable to reflect any other type of projectile.


If used in the air or off of a ledge, one is unable to get out of the move until one lands, so be careful when using it. In Melee, this move would put Jigglypuff in a [[helpless]] state if the attack ended while Jigglypuff was in the air.  In Brawl, this was removed and Jigglypuff no longer enters a helpless state when using this move.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
In ''SSB4'', Rollout has been severely nerfed despite being reversible, easier to control and being more powerful on slopes. It deals 14% damage, has much less knockback, and KOs at much higher percentages, around 135%. However, if Jigglypuff does an uncharged Rollout, falls on the ground, and an opponent is there, [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHk0GQkzAQ they will take damage].


Rollout is a Rock-type move in the [[Pokémon (universe)|''Pokémon'' games]]. Learned mostly by spherical Pokémon, it executes five turns in a row (unless it misses) and deals increasing amounts of damage each turn.
Jigglypuff can perform a '''Rollout glide''' where it flies through the air further than normal if it attempts to reverse the direction of Rollout the frame after rolling off a ledge. If Jigglypuff tries to reverse its direction while rolling down a slope, it will instead gain a very slight vertical boost and begin Rollout gliding through the air.


{{Jigglypuff Special Moves}}
Jigglypuff can not move to the left or right after landing Rollout anymore but, oddly, any conditions, items, or effects that cause Jigglypuff's fall speed to increase also restores the ability to move to the left and right after landing the move, and the higher its fall speed becomes, the faster it can move, increasing at a rate greater to the rate of fall speed increase. This includes being [[metal]], [[Super Mushroom|mega]], wearing the [[Bunny Hood]] or being in a [[Special Gravity|Heavy Smash]]. Since [[Kirby]]'s fall speed is higher than Jigglypuff's, he can do so by default when [[copy ability|copying]] the move.
 
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
Rollout received a mix of buffs and nerfs in ''Ultimate''. It's damage was increased from 6-14% to 10-20% and the knockback was altered to give it overall higher KO power. It reaches full charge faster (60 → 51 frames) but it will automatically launch one second after reaching full charge. When hitting an opponent with an aerial Rollout, Jigglypuff's falling speed is much higher (0.98 → 2.0), allowing it to move left and right like in ''Brawl'' and is able to grab ledges in the rebound state, however Jigglypuff will have less time to land or grab a ledge due to the higher falling speed.

# '''Rollout''': Default.
# '''Relentless Rollout''': Rollout  travels faster and covers more distance. The move does not end if it touches someone, instead passing through them and dealing 1% or 2% of damage at max charge for every time it makes contact. Jigglypuff can hit the opponent about 4 to 6 times, depending on the opponent's size. This move's duration is longer than the standard variation. Because of its quick speed, it is slightly easier to fall off the stage and self-destruct. In contrast, due to not stopping when it hits an opponent, it is significantly more useful for recovery, as Jigglypuff will not fall to its death if it hits an opponent. However it also lacks the ability to kill due to its multi-hit property.
# '''Raging Rollout''': This move takes more than double the time to charge up. When executed, it is faster than Rollout and has considerable knockback. However, the direction of the move cannot be changed. It inflicts up to 23% damage when it hits, and can K.O. at 95%. Its long recharge time and poor horizontal distance when not fully charged make it invalid as a recovery option. By extension, its inability to turn around drastically increases the chances of rolling off a stage and self-destructing.

Rollout (ころがる, Roll) is Jigglypuff's neutral special move since Super Smash Bros. Melee, replacing Pound.

Overview[edit]

Rollout can be charged by holding the special button and is executed by releasing it. Charging raises the speed, damage, and knockback of the attack. Jigglypuff can change direction back and forth during the Rollout, but only when grounded. The grounded version deals high horizontal knockback that KOs at relatively low percentages, whereas the aerial version sends the opponent straight upward. If the aerial version hits an opponent, Jigglypuff will continue to spin and be unable to act until it takes damage or lands. Hitting an opponent causes Jigglypuff to rebound for a short distance.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

It is capable of dealing 18% damage when fully charged (when the higher-pitch sound has started). If used in the air or off of a ledge, Jigglypuff takes a long time to end the move, so it's best used on the ground. Additionally, if the move ends while Jigglypuff is in the air, it will enter a helpless state. If Jigglypuff collides with a wall and the control stick is tilted towards the wall, it will continuously rebound off the wall until the move ends. When changing direction on grass terrain, Jigglypuff comes to a complete stop sooner than on other terrains, allowing it to turn around a several frames faster.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

The move can now "curve" in midair to prevent going off the side of the stage. This can even go to a degree where Jigglypuff is falling straight down, spinning and, when it lands, it will move in the opposite direction. Jigglypuff will also no longer be put in a helpless state if the move ends while it is in midair.

If Jigglypuff now collides with a wall, but the control stick is still tilted towards the wall, Jigglypuff will strike the wall again, then rapidly spin against it, emitting blue shock waves and a drilling noise, and causing pure vertical knockback to anyone who is hit.

Interestingly, Rollout can reflect Snake's Remote Missile despite being unable to reflect any other type of projectile.

In Super Smash Bros. 4[edit]

In SSB4, Rollout has been severely nerfed despite being reversible, easier to control and being more powerful on slopes. It deals 14% damage, has much less knockback, and KOs at much higher percentages, around 135%. However, if Jigglypuff does an uncharged Rollout, falls on the ground, and an opponent is there, they will take damage.

Jigglypuff can perform a Rollout glide where it flies through the air further than normal if it attempts to reverse the direction of Rollout the frame after rolling off a ledge. If Jigglypuff tries to reverse its direction while rolling down a slope, it will instead gain a very slight vertical boost and begin Rollout gliding through the air.

Jigglypuff can not move to the left or right after landing Rollout anymore but, oddly, any conditions, items, or effects that cause Jigglypuff's fall speed to increase also restores the ability to move to the left and right after landing the move, and the higher its fall speed becomes, the faster it can move, increasing at a rate greater to the rate of fall speed increase. This includes being metal, mega, wearing the Bunny Hood or being in a Heavy Smash. Since Kirby's fall speed is higher than Jigglypuff's, he can do so by default when copying the move.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

Rollout received a mix of buffs and nerfs in Ultimate. It's damage was increased from 6-14% to 10-20% and the knockback was altered to give it overall higher KO power. It reaches full charge faster (60 → 51 frames) but it will automatically launch one second after reaching full charge. When hitting an opponent with an aerial Rollout, Jigglypuff's falling speed is much higher (0.98 → 2.0), allowing it to move left and right like in Brawl and is able to grab ledges in the rebound state, however Jigglypuff will have less time to land or grab a ledge due to the higher falling speed.

Customization[edit]

Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:

1. Rollout 2. Relentless Rollout 3. Raging Rollout
Rollout
Relentless Rollout
Raging Rollout
"A rolling attack that can be charged to achieve incredible speeds." "An unstoppable rolling attack that keeps going even after bumping into enemies." "A rolling attack that can't be turned around. When fully charged, it has serious power."
  1. Rollout: Default.
  2. Relentless Rollout: Rollout travels faster and covers more distance. The move does not end if it touches someone, instead passing through them and dealing 1% or 2% of damage at max charge for every time it makes contact. Jigglypuff can hit the opponent about 4 to 6 times, depending on the opponent's size. This move's duration is longer than the standard variation. Because of its quick speed, it is slightly easier to fall off the stage and self-destruct. In contrast, due to not stopping when it hits an opponent, it is significantly more useful for recovery, as Jigglypuff will not fall to its death if it hits an opponent. However it also lacks the ability to kill due to its multi-hit property.
  3. Raging Rollout: This move takes more than double the time to charge up. When executed, it is faster than Rollout and has considerable knockback. However, the direction of the move cannot be changed. It inflicts up to 23% damage when it hits, and can K.O. at 95%. Its long recharge time and poor horizontal distance when not fully charged make it invalid as a recovery option. By extension, its inability to turn around drastically increases the chances of rolling off a stage and self-destructing.

Origin[edit]

Rollout being used by Jigglypuff in Pokémon Gold.

Rollout is a physical Rock-type attack introduced in Generation II in the Pokémon games. Learned mostly by spherical Pokémon, it can hit 2 to 5 turns in a row. Its starting base power is at a low 30 but its power will double after every hit. If Defense Curl is used beforehand, Rollout's starting base power will be doubled to 60, resulting in the most powerful attack in the game on the fifth hit, with a base power of 960. However, if Rollout misses, then its base power will be reset.

In Generations II and III, Jigglypuff learns Rollout at level 19. It was moved down two levels in Generation IV and it was moved up three levels for Generation V and VI.
