{{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''. {{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. Virginie Demians and Dina Kuerten's portrayals of Jigglypuff from ''Brawl'' were reused in the French and German versions. | {{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'', which was a last time that Lillis voice Jigglypuff before she retired of voice acting in 2019. {{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.

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. | Jigglypuff is ranked 60th out of 82 in the current ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]], putting it at the end of the C+ tier.
