Jigglypuff is a playable character in the Brawl mod Project M. This puffball of a Pokémon returns from Melee with a nearly identical moveset.
Attributes
Changes from Melee to PM
Jigglypuff has remained relatively unchanged from Melee to Project M, although it has gained a few additional options from Brawl-based mechanics.
- Dash attack remains cancelable from Brawl, allowing Jigglypuff to DACUS and Gatling Combo, improving its ground mobility.
- Down aerial hits faster.
- Sing puts enemies to sleep for longer than it did in Melee and Brawl to compensate for the new sleep mechanics (mashing causes characters to wake up earlier).
- It is easier to DI out of Jigglypuff's up-throw, making it harder to pull off the space animal slayer.
- Forward throw is significantly weaker, as it now deals almost half the usual damage, and its knockback scaling is considerably worse to the point the attack cannot KO effectively, encouraging Jigglypuff to instead follow-up with aerial attacks.
- Neutral attack and up aerial now use the Fan sound effect.
In terms of cosmetic changes, Jigglypuff now gets back its yellow crown costume from Melee as another palette swap. It additionally has a new costume that gives it a more opaque color and fairy wings, which emit sparkles when moving in midair; this heavily references the fact that Jigglypuff has become part Fairy-type in recent Pokémon games (more specifically the Generation VI games), which is a newly-introduced elemental type.
Revisions
