In ''SSB'', Pound has more ending lag than in the later games, making the technique less effective and harder to master. However, as it is Jigglypuff's neutral special in this game, [[Kirby]] can copy the move and use this same technique, giving him a better recovery as he can use [[Final Cutter]] for additional height. In ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', after using all of Jigglypuff's midair [[jump]]s, [[CPU]]s use this move repeatedly until they recover, or are eventually [[KO]]'d. | In ''SSB'', Pound has more ending lag than in the later games, making the technique less effective and harder to master.

As pressing up quickly after using Pound causes Jigglypuff to gain height, and the move does not put it into [[helpless]] state, Pound gives Jigglypuff a gigantic horizontal recovery. This technique is known as a "rising Pound". Contrary to popular belief, this is not infinite, as the ending lag causes Jigglypuff to end up slightly lower than its original position. However, it still gives it a great advantage in stalling, being able to go under many stages and go to the other side. It is also possible to perform a "falling Pound" by pressing down instead of up after using Pound, which instead moves Jigglypuff slightly downwards. {{clr}} | As pressing up quickly after using Pound causes Jigglypuff to gain height, and the move does not put it into [[helpless]] state, Pound gives Jigglypuff a gigantic horizontal recovery.
