Description
From the first generation of Pokémon, this sleepy singing balloon rollouts into Rivals of Aether!

Originally planned to be a reskin of turpix's Jigglypuff, it has been since shifted to be remade as its own fighter from the ground up, with only remnants of turpix's version being the up special.

Background
Full Name: Jigglypuff
Series Origin: Pokémon
Debut/Platform: Pokémon Red and Green (JP, Game Boy, 1996), Pokémon Red and Blue (INT, Game Boy, 1998)

Overview

Jigglypuff is a rushdown fighter with some odd traits consisting of extremes. Unusual for a rushdown, Puff has horrible ground speed and mobility but makes up for it with excellent air mobility. With 5 midair jumps, a forward special that glides and having a fast air speed, Jigglypuff does best when in the air. Its lightweight makes it hard to combo on but leaves Puff to get KO'd twice as fast.

Moveset



Neutral Special: Rollout

- Charge up your roll and ram into foes! More charge means more damage and speed. Can KO around low to mid percents. Unlike Smash Bros., this move has different attributes. It doesn't allow you to change direction and you regain your double jumps upon hit. You can do wall jump cancel once you are near a wall.

As of Version 1.4, Jigglypuff can now bounce off of foes upon hit, preventing off-screen SDs from poor momentum should they go too far off from the arena.

Forward Special: Pound

- Lets Jigglypuff do a slap across the stage

Up Special: Sing

- Jigglypuff sings a song. If the foe gets near, they will fall asleep...er, get stunned for awhile, letting Puff follow up with any punishes. Only works on grounded foes.

As of Version 1.7, Sing now has a cooldown period when used, meaning Jigglypuff can no longer spam this move. This is to prevent endless sleep loops.

Down Special: Rest

- Jigglypuff falls asleep for a short while. Despite it appearing to be useless, it does extreme damage and knockback if Puff gets up close to a foe while sleeping at the start of the move. How effective it is on dealing damage and knockback depends on the foe's DI and weight. Unique to Rivals, Jigglypuff can recover a little bit of HP, though the lengthy end lag of the move makes this not to be relied upon.

A proper Jigglypuff. Worst time to release it though during the anime Jam deadline but I'm sure people will find it.
