The name Jigglypuff is a combination of jiggly and puff, referring to this monster’s wobbly shape and ability to inflate itself. Its Japanese name ‘Purin’ may be a combination of 風船 fūsen (balloon) and 膨れる fukureru (to expand or inflate), as well as a pun on プリン purin (a Japanese pudding).
Jigglypuff is a dual normal and fairy type monster. Essentially, it is a round, pink ball with pointed ears and large, blue eyes. It has rubbery, balloon-like skin and small, stubby arms and somewhat long feet. On top of its head is a curled tuft of fur. Its body is filled with air, as a defeated Jigglypuff, deflates until it is flat. By drawing extra air into its body, it is sometimes able to float.
Jigglypuff uses its eyes to mesmerize opponents. Once it achieves this, it will inflate its lungs and begin to sing a soothing lullaby. If the opponent resists falling asleep, Jigglypuff will endanger its own life by continuing to sing until its lungs run out of air. It is able to adjust the wavelength of its voice to match the brain waves of someone in a deep sleep. This helps ensure drowsiness in its opponents. Jigglypuff can mostly be found in lush green plains and close to grassy meadows.
