Jigglypuff (プリン, Purin) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Jigglypuff is classified as fighter #12.
As with previous games, Rachael Lillis's portrayal of Jigglypuff from 64 has been repurposed for the English version of Ultimate; Mika Kanai, Jigglypuff's voice actress from previous games and the Pokémon anime, reprises her role in the Japanese version with new voice clips. Virginie Demians and Dina Kuerten's portrayals of Jigglypuff from Brawl was repurposed for the French and German versions respectively.
How to unlock
Complete one of the following:
- Play VS. matches, with Jigglypuff being the 15th character to be unlocked.
- Clear Classic Mode with Kirby or any character in his unlock tree, being the second character unlocked after Ness.
- Have Jigglypuff join the player's party in World of Light.
With the exception of the third method, Jigglypuff must then be defeated on Saffron City.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Due to its status as bottom tier in SSB4, Jigglypuff has been significantly buffed in the transition to Ultimate. Most notable direct changes are to its aerial attacks, having greatly reduced landing lag. This combined with its even higher airspeed allows Jigglypuff to flow its aerial attacks into another, significantly improving its combos and damage output. In addition, Pound has less endlag than in SSB4 giving it combo potential as well as helping with vertical recovery, and Rest is now interruptible significantly earlier, being 20 frames fewer than previous games, and an additional 25 frames earlier if it connects. In addition, Sing is notably faster with more range, along with being much harder to mash out of, potentially making it a viable tool for the first time in the series, although it still remains very risky and easily punishable.
Some of the biggest buffs to Jigglypuff, however, come from the reworked game mechanics in Ultimate. Changes to air dodges greatly improve Jigglypuff's ability to use its aerial kit much more efficiently, and notably regaining its strong edgeguarding capabilities. This combined with its improved aerials and mobility allows Jigglypuff to perform techniques like its renowned Wall of Pain more effectively. In addition, Jigglypuff arguably benefits the most from the weakening of the rage mechanic, which slightly improves Jigglypuff's otherwise abysmal endurance.
However, Jigglypuff did receive some minor nerfs in return. Its already terrible grab game was made even worse in Ultimate, as its grab is even slower and some throws deal less damage. While the changes to air dodges overall benefit Jigglypuff, they also make Jigglypuff more vulnerable in the air and makes its ability to avoid juggling even worse. In addition, being unable to pass through other fighters while running means that Rest is much harder to land via running into opponents, limiting its options slightly.
In addition, while Jigglypuff's combo and aerial game are significantly improved, many of its primary flaws that existed in previous games before SSB4 are still present in Ultimate. Jigglypuff is still extremely light and floaty, making it very easy to KO, especially vertically. Furthermore, while improved somewhat, Jigglypuff still has a poor ground game, with poor range, terrible ground mobility, no projectile and one of the worst grab games of any character (now being even worse than in SSB4), with slow, short-reaching grab and throws that are incapable of KOing or comboing. In addition, even with buffs, Rollout still has the same issues as before, being a very gimmicky move, and while Sing is significantly improved, it is still situational.
Overall, Jigglypuff's buffs greatly outweigh its nerfs, and in result is significantly more effective than in Brawl and SSB4, becoming once again a proper glass cannon. It has achieved good results in Ultimate's early metagame thanks to Hungrybox, Arika and Captain L performing well at various tournaments.
Aesthetics
As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Jigglypuff's model features a more subdued color scheme. It more closely resembles its appearance in recent mainline Pokémon titles as a result. Only its irises have retained some of their vibrancy, and they are more detailed than they were previously.- Jigglypuff is slightly more expressive. For example, it smiles when using certain attacks as it did in games prior to SSB4, rather than looking surprised.
- The animation where Jigglypuff looks back is an idle pose rather than being a part of its main animation, although it reuses its idle animation from past games when holding a small item.
- Jigglypuff's ears fold slightly inward when using Rollout or Rest.
- Jigglypuff has an altered airdodge animation, where it poses more gracefully during the ending lag.
- Side taunt is much faster; over twice as fast. Up taunt is also slightly faster.
- Jigglypuff has two new victory poses. In one, it jumps twice, spins around, and assumes a pose similar to its render from SSB4. In the other, it runs into the scene, does a backflip, and assumes a pose similar to its official art from Pokémon Yellow Version. It retains the victory pose where it falls asleep.
- Jigglypuff's walking animation is different. It walks with an alert look on its face and face more towards the screen.
Attributes
Like all characters, Jigglypuff's jumpsquat animation takes 3 frames to complete (down from 6).- Jigglypuff runs faster (1.155 → 1.271).
- Jigglypuff's initial dash is faster (1.4 → 1.65).
- Jigglypuff walks slightly faster (0.7 → 0.735).
- Jigglypuff's air speed is faster (1.269 → 1.332).
- Jigglypuff's traction is higher (0.0718 → 0.087), but is much lower relative to the roster, going from the second highest traction in SSB4 to being tied for the 65th–66th lowest traction in Ultimate.
- Jigglypuff's full hop grants slightly less height. This makes it more reliable for hitting opponents at ground level, but reduces its utility for vertical followups.
Forward roll grants less intangibility (frames 4-17 → 4-15).- Back roll has slower startup with less intangibility (frames 4-17 → 5-16), and more ending lag (FAF 31 → 36).
- Spot dodge has less startup (frame 4 → 3) and ending lag (FAF 29 → 27).
- Spot dodge grants less intangibility (frames 4-19 → 3-17).
- Air dodge grants more intangibility (frames 4-29 → 4-32).
- Air dodge has significantly more ending lag (FAF 35 → 75), becoming the slowest air dodge in the game by a wide margin. This makes it much more punishable, and removes its former ability to bait approaches in combination with Jigglypuff's floatiness and fast aerial movement.
- The changes to air dodges significantly improve the effectiveness of Jigglypuff's aerial attacks, making them much harder to avoid. Thanks to this, Jigglypuff regains a large part of its edgeguarding capabilities.
- Additionally, the reintroduction of directional air dodges further improve Jigglypuff's recovery, granting it additional distance after having used up all jumps.
- Jigglypuff arguably benefits most from the weakening of the rage mechanic, increasing its endurance.
Ground Attacks
- Neutral attack:
- The first hit transitions into the second hit faster (frame 9 → 7).
- The second hit launches at a lower angle that is consistent throughout, and deals more knockback, increasing its efficiency in keeping opponents away.
- The first hit has altered angles and knockback to keep opponents close to Jigglypuff, akin to other neutral attacks. This allows it to connect better into the second hit, and restores its jab lock ability from previous games, but hinders its jab cancel setups.
- Forward tilt:
- Forward tilt has less ending lag (FAF 28 → 25). Combined with the increased shieldstun for tilt attacks, this makes it much safer on shield.
- Forward tilt has slightly less range
- Up tilt:
- Up tilt has one frame more ending lag (FAF 24 → 25).
- Down tilt:
- Down tilt deals more knockback, allowing it to KO under 200% from the center of Final Destination.
- Dash attack:
- Dash attack's clean hit deals much more base knockback, with its knockback scaling mostly compensated. This improves its safety on hit at low percents, while keeping its KO ability at high percents.
- The clean hit has a shorter duration (frames 5-9 → 5-7), with the late hit lasting longer instead (frames 10-20 → 8-20).
- The late hit deals less knockback.
- It has a new animation where Jigglypuff's face is angled more toward the screen, and its limbs are more elegantly spread out.
- Forward smash:
- Forward smash deals more damage (15% → 16% (clean), 12% → 14% (late)) with its knockback not fully compensated, improving its KO potential.
- The animations of both the charge and execution of the move have changed. Jigglypuff charges it by holding its foot behind itself, then swiftly swings its foot around to execute a roundhouse kick, similar to Kirby.
- Up smash:
- Up smash no longer has a sourspot and deals more damage (14%/12% → 15%), although with knockback compensated to be close to that of the previous sweetspot. The original sourspot has been moved above the sweetspot, increasing its effective range.
- Down smash:
- Down smash deals more knockback, improving its KO potential.
- The changes to the 0° launch angle cause the move's angle to increase at higher percents.
Aerial attacks
- All aerials have less landing lag (15 frames → 9 (neutral, forward, up), 18 frames → 11 (back), 30 frames → 15 (down)).
- Back aerial:
- Back aerial has less startup lag (frame 12 → 10) with identical ending lag, shortening its duration (FAF 40 → 38).
- It auto-cancels earlier (frame 28 → 26).
- It turns Jigglypuff around after its use, even when landing with the move, akin to Marth's back aerial. This hampers its use as a neutral walling move, but increases its potential for combos and mixups into other moves.
- Up aerial:
- Up aerial has less ending lag (FAF 45 → 40).
- Down aerial:
- Down aerial's last hit deals slightly less knockback, improving its combo potential.
- Jigglypuff can no longer jump out of a full hopped down aerial onstage, due to its lower full hop height, making it harder to follow up.
Throws and other attacks
- Grabs:
- All grabs have more ending lag (FAF 27 → 33 (standing), 33 → 40 (dash), 32 → 35 (pivot)).
- Dash and pivot grabs have more startup (frame 8 → 9 (dash), 9 → 10 (pivot)).
- Pummel:
- Jigglypuff has a new pummel: it kicks opponents with one foot instead of slapping them.
- Pummel deals more hitlag (5 frames → 14), but has significantly less startup (frame 10 → 1) and ending lag (FAF 21 → 7), shortening its duration.
- It deals much less damage (3% → 1.3%).
- Forward throw:
- Forward throw launches at a more desirable angle for edgeguarding (55° → 45°).
- Forward throw has less knockback, shortening the distance the opponent needs to travel to reach the stage.
- Back throw and up throw are no longer weight-dependent.
- Up throw:
- Up throw has less ending lag (FAF 42 → 38).
- It deals less damage (10% → 8%), although with its knockback compensated.
- Down throw:
- Down throw's first hit deals more damage (4% → 6%; 10% → 12% total).
- Edge attack:
- Edge attack deals more damage (6% → 8%).
Special moves
- Rollout:
- Rollout deals more damage (6%-14% → 10%-20%), with its knockback not fully compensated, increasing its KO potential.
- Its rebound animation is much faster.
- It has greatly reduced ending lag on hit (FAF 73 → 53).
- When using an uncharged Rollout, Jigglypuff will only roll once, significantly speeding up the animation.
- Jigglypuff is able to move after hitting an opponent with Rollout in the air, like in Brawl, preventing it from self-destructing if the move is landed offstage.
- Additionally, Jigglypuff can grab ledges during this state.
- Grass terrain no longer allows for faster turning while using Rollout, however ice terrain still prevents turning.
- Rollout can no longer be held indefinitely, it will be unleashed automatically one second after it becomes fully charged.
An unknown bug may cause the rebound to send Jigglypuff much higher, cause it to fall slower, and prevent sideways movement.
- Pound:
- Pound has less ending lag (FAF 46 → 40), allowing for true combos into other moves, including Rest.
- It has more range when used in the air.
- Jigglypuff can no longer accelerate in the air during the startup of Pound, making consecutive Pounds to recover much less effective.
- Sing:
- All of Sing's hits have less startup lag (hit 1: frame 29 → 27, hit 2: 73 → 61, hit 3: 122 → 100).
- It has significantly less ending lag (FAF 180 → 150).
- It has slightly more range.
- Sing is harder to mash out of. Because of this, opponents no longer wake up before Jigglypuff can act.
- Jigglypuff can move slightly while using Sing in the air.
- Rest:
- Rest has significantly less ending lag, especially if the move hits (FAF 230 → 210 (miss), 187 (hit)), reducing the risk of respawning opponents punishing Jigglypuff after getting KOed by the move.
- This makes it possible to recover back to the ledge after landing Rest offstage, albeit with significant risk of being edgeguarded.
- Its hitbox size has been increased (3.4 → 3.8).
- Due to the altered jostle mechanics preventing characters from running through each other, Rest can no longer hit most characters out of a walk or run.
- Rest triggers Special Zoom upon connecting.
- Puff Up:
- Puff Up is much faster than the previous games. When it ends, Jigglypuff aesthetically "pops", and then deflates to normal size, mimicking a balloon. Jigglypuff additionally shrinks considerably faster at the end. It also has an angry expression while inflating, resembling the face the Jigglypuff from the anime makes when someone falls asleep.
- The damage of Puff Up, previously 17% in a single hit, has been split into two hits that deal 10% and 25% damage, respectively.

Note: All numbers are listed as base damage, without the 1v1 multiplier.
| Name | Damage | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral attack | 3% | Jigglypuff performs two alternating punches. Both hits can lock, but the second hit will fail at percentages greater than 3%. | ||
| 3% | ||||
| Forward tilt | 10% | A roundhouse kick. It can be angled, and can lock at low percents. | ||
| Up tilt | 9% (clean), 8% (late) | A scorpion kick. Unless the opponent has a tall hurtbox, this move will fail to hit anyone in front of Jigglypuff. Can combo into itself or an up aerial at low percents. | ||
| Down tilt | 10% | A crouching shin kick. Launches opponents at a semi-spike angle, making it a good tool for spacing. | ||
| Dash attack | Jiggly Ram | 12% (clean), 8% (late) | Leaps off the ground and attacks with a lunging headbutt. | |
| Forward smash | 16% (clean), 14% (late) | Holds its foot behind itself and then attacks with a lunging roundhouse kick. Can lock at low percentages. | ||
| Up smash | 15% | An upwards headbutt. | ||
| Down smash | Jiggly Split | 11% | A spinning split kick. Grants intangibility on Jigglypuff's feet (frames 10-12). Opponents with high damage are launched at a higher angle. | |
| Neutral aerial | 11% (clean), 6% (late) | A flying kick. It is a sex kick with a long-lasting late hitbox. One of Jigglypuff's best moves, as it is very safe and has decent knockback when sweetspotted. Commonly used to block opponents from reaching the edge. | ||
| Forward aerial | 9% (clean), 6% (late) | A dropkick. Somewhat weak knockback, but good for spacing. Has a lingering hitbox (though it does not as last as long as neutral aerial's hitbox), while its late hitbox can combo into Rest. Autocancels, but only if quickly inputted after a short hop. | ||
| Back aerial | 13% | A spinning back kick. This causes Jigglypuff to turn around, similar to Marth's back air. This move is Jigglypuff's slowest aerial, and it lacks a lingering hitbox unlike its other aerials, but has strong knockback and good range while still being reasonably quick, making it a potent finisher. | ||
| Up aerial | 9% | Waves its arm in an overhead arcing motion. Good for juggling, and can be used to initiate combos if it hits an opponent just before Jigglypuff lands. | ||
| Down aerial | 1.5% (hits 1-8), 2% (hit 9) | A diagonal corkscrew dropkick. Good out of shield option and somewhat effective as an anti-juggling option. It is slightly less unsafe than in the previous game with 15 frames of landing lag (halved from 30), but should still be used cautiously. | ||
| Grab | — | Reaches out. Its overall grab range is short, and possesses moderate endlag if whiffed. | ||
| Pummel | 1.3% | Kicks the opponent. | ||
| Forward throw | 5% (hit 1), 5% (throw) | Puffs up once to launch the opponent forward. Despite its moderate knockback, its KO potential is abysmal. Instead, it is much more effective for setting up edgeguards due to its low endlag. | ||
| Back throw | 10% | A German suplex. Like its forward throw, this move is useful for setting up edgeguards. | ||
| Up throw | 8% | Spins once to fling the opponent upward, leaving a trail of sparkles. Has high base knockback, but is offset by its low growth. | ||
| Down throw | 6% (hit 1), 6% (throw) | Pins the opponent to the ground and then rolls back and forth on their back, which launches them upward. | ||
| Forward roll Back roll Spot dodge Air dodge |
— | — | ||
| Techs | — | — | ||
| Floor attack (front) Floor getups (front) |
7% | Spins around to kick in front of itself and behind itself. | ||
| Floor attack (back) Floor getups (back) |
7% | Kicks in front of itself and behind itself. | ||
| Floor attack (trip) Floor getups (trip) |
5% | Spins on the ground, kicking on both sides. | ||
| Edge attack Edge getups |
8% | Performs a flipping kick while climbing up the stage. | ||
| Neutral special | Rollout | 10% (minimally charged), 20% (fully charged) | Rolls forward to slam into the opponent. Its power, range, and speed can be increased by holding the special button. It cannot be held indefinitely, however, and will automatically release a little bit after it reaches max charge. When fully charged, it does quite a bit of shield damage. If not charged until Jigglypuff glows, it will harmlessly roll once. On the ground, Rollout's direction can be changed mid-roll, which deals no damage until the turn is complete; in the air, pressing left or right will alter Jigglypuff's roll speed. When Rollout is fully charged, Jigglypuff will voice its name and briefly flash. Hitting a non-shielding opponent will cause Jigglypuff to rebound, which renders it unable to do anything else, apart from shifting its direction, until it lands or is hit. It can, however, control its direction during the rebound. This makes Rollout dangerous to use off-stage or at an edge, since the rebound will cause Jigglypuff to spin helplessly as it descends to the lower blast line. It can grab edges during the rebound, but it's still unsafe, especially if Rollout is perfect shielded. | |
| Side special | Pound | 11% | Rears its arm back and then throws a punch, taking a step forward. Deals moderate knockback, though unable to KO at realistic percents. Its momentum moves Jigglypuff sideways (which can be slightly shifted upwards by pushing the control stick up immediately after the input), making it one of the two special moves it can use to recover. It also does a high amount of shield damage and has a surprisingly large, long-lasting hitbox that doesn't lose power. | |
| Up special | Sing | 0% | Sings a song that puts nearby opponents to sleep. The more damaged opponents are, the longer they will sleep, making them open for a followup attack, most notably Rest. Jigglypuff can sweetspot ledges during the entire move, allowing Sing to set up a punish from a ledge. However, the song is short-ranged, consists of three brief pauses, and leaves Jigglypuff itself slightly vulnerable to being attacked. Unlike typical up specials, Sing does not grant any vertical distance, but it does retain slight mobility . | |
| Down special | Rest | 20% (move), 1% (flower loop) | Falls asleep, dealing a single hard hit to any opponents directly touching Jigglypuff. It has almost no start-up lag (1 frame) and deals an extreme amount of vertical knockback if landed, and benefits from rage, due to possessing very high base knockback. It also puts a flower on the opponent's head that deals continuous damage. If Rest lands, Jigglypuff will be able to act as soon as its eyes open, making it somewhat hard to punish. It takes it slightly longer to act if it whiffs; after it opens its eyes, but before it shakes itself. Jigglypuff gains invincibility for a few frames when the move is used (before its eyes close) which can initially prevent counterattacks from hitting Jigglypuff, though this is detrimental due to the move's extreme ending lag. | |
| Final Smash | Puff Up | 10% (hit 1), 25% (hit 2) | Rapidly inflates itself to a gargantuan size and launches all opponents near it horizontally while saying "Jiggly!" before "popping" and quickly deflating back to its normal size. Jigglypuff's size is so great when inflating that its body completely takes up smaller stages and even some medium-sized ones, making it difficult to escape. There are two hitboxes, with the second one dealing more damage and knockback than the first. | |
Victory poses
- Jumps twice, twirls, and poses similar to its official SSB4 render.
- Runs into the scene, almost loses its balance, then backflips and poses. Its final pose is similar to its artwork in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions.
- Sleeps and then suddenly wakes up, continuing to drift in and out of consciousness.

Note: Every stage (except for Battlefield) and the tracks they play are all from Super Smash Bros.. Due to Planet Zebes and Sector Z being the only N64 stages that didn't return, Samus and Fox are paired with Yoshi and Kirby, respectively. Giant Donkey Kong is considered as Jigglypuff's final boss instead of Master Hand, despite the fact that Master Hand was the final boss in the original Super Smash Bros.. Most likely to reference how Giant Donkey Kong was initially a unique character in the series at one point, being used as a mini-boss for Classic Mode and considered independent from Donkey Kong, similar to Metal Mario before the Super Mushroom and Metal Box became items.
Role in World of Light
Although Jigglypuff does not appear in the World of Light opening cutscene, it was vaporized and later imprisoned alongside the rest of the fighters (sans Kirby) when Galeem unleashed his beams of light.
Jigglypuff can be found in a green area at the east of a metropolis early by taking Sheik's route, and to reach it, the player must either cross a bridge or circle through a lake.

Trivia
- Jigglypuff is the only character who travels to Super Happy Tree in Classic Mode.
- Jigglypuff is the only unlockable character to be fought in a Smash 64 stage.
- Ultimate is the first game since Smash 64 to have Jigglypuff's stock icon not include its hands or feet.
- Jigglypuff is unlocked in Kirby's Classic Mode column, likely referencing how the two are pink puffballs. It can be unlocked by clearing Classic Mode as Kirby or Ness, both of which are Smash 64 veterans.
- Jigglypuff is the only Pokémon veteran that appeared in both Brawl and Smash 4 but is absent in the World of Light opening cutscene.
- Jigglypuff's Classic Mode is the only one not to go any stages outside of Smash 64, and one of the few whose boss round does not feature a designated boss, instead fighting characters who are otherwise playable (in this case, Giant Donkey Kong).
