Jigglypuff (SSBU)

Jigglypuff (プリン, Purin) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Like in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Jigglypuff returns as a starter character.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

  NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.

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 consequence. 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, now smiling when using certain neutral attacks as it did in games prior to SSB4 rather than looking surprised.
  •   Jigglypuff's ears now fold slightly inward when using Rollout or Rest.
  •   Side taunt is now much faster.

Aerial Attacks

Special Moves

  •   When using an uncharged Rollout, Jigglypuff will only roll once, significantly speeding up the animation. This improves its safety.
  •   Rest now activates a dramatic slow motion effect upon hitting.
  •   Puff Up is now faster than the previous games. When it ends, Jigglypuff aesthetically "pops", and then deflates to normal size, mimicking a balloon. It also has an angry expression while inflating, resembling the face the Jigglypuff from the anime makes when someone falls asleep. Additionally, Jigglypuff shrinks much faster at the end.
