+PUT A SOCK IN IT
-'''Jigglypuff''' (Japanese: '''プリン''' ''Purin'') is a [[wild Pokémon]] which appears multiple times in the [[Pokémon anime]].  It is voiced by かないみか ''[[Mika Kanai]]'' in Japanese, and [[Rachael Lillis]] in English.
-Jigglypuff's first appearance was in ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]'', where it was first seen standing on a stump.  [[Misty]] tried to capture it with her [[Misty's Staryu|Staryu]], but decided otherwise when she learned that the Jigglypuff couldn't use {{m|Sing}}.  After a failed attempt by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] to capture Jigglypuff, Ash and his friends attempted to restore its voice, succeeding when [[Brock]] gave it a piece of fruit which soothed its throat.  It performed Sing for them, putting everyone within hearing range to sleep.  This upset Jigglypuff, and it went into [[Ash|Ash's]] backpack and pulled out a marker, which it used to draw on the faces of everyone who fell asleep.  When Ash and his friends awoke again, Jigglypuff was still unhappy, so they attempted to find someone who could listen to its song without falling asleep.  This eventually resulted in having Jigglypuff perform for all the people in [[Neon Town]], putting the whole town to sleep.  It then ran around Neon Town to draw on ''everyone's'' faces.
-It appeared in the next episode, and many other episodes to come, following Ash and always looking for opportunities to Sing on a stage or for a crowd.  It seems to have a desire to become a Pokémon diva of some sort, but currently its primary goal is to find someone who can listen to its song the whole way through.  It came close to achieving this goal in ''[[AG039|A Pokéblock Party!]]'' when it met a {{p|Whismur}} who could block the effects of the song with {{a|Soundproof}}, though the friendship between the two was short lived because the Whismur ended up passing out from exhaustion, making Jigglypuff think it had fallen asleep from Sing.
-Whenever someone falls asleep because of Jigglypuff's song, it is guaranteed they will have doodles drawn on their face with Jigglypuff's marker, but they will also generally wake up in a better mood than when they fell asleep.  The full power of its song was proven in ''[[EP072|The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]'', when Jigglypuff awoke a [[Giant Pokémon|giant Jigglypuff]] (who is called by one character the pun name "Bigglypuff") who was able to put two giant fighting Pokémon, Gengar and Alakazam, to sleep.  It then pulled out a paintbrush and painted all over the Gengar and Alakazam's bodies, much like what the regular-sized Jigglypuff would do with its marker.
-Besides its marker, Jigglypuff also has a voice-changing microphone which it picked up in ''[[EP054|Case of the K-9 Capers]]'', but it has yet to use it.  It is assumed that this item was intended to be used again in a different plot and then forgotten, much like the [[GS Ball]].
-Jigglypuff appears only once in [[Advanced Generation]], in episode ''[[AG039|A Pokéblock Party!]]''.  It has not appeared in [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier]], except in the form of a karaoke mike in ''[[AG142|Caterpie's Big Dilemma]]'', which had a miniature Jigglypuff on it complete with its own tiny marker.  While ''a'' Jigglypuff appeared in ''[[AG138|Rough, Tough Jiggypuff]]'', it was not this same Jigglypuff, having a different Japanese voice, different properties of its Sing attack, lacking a marker, and being able to use {{m|Flamethrower}}.  Based on how scarcely it is seen at this point, the Jigglypuff which followed Ash through a large portion of his journey may have faded from the anime cast completely.

-=In the games=
-A Jigglypuff which may be this same Jigglypuff appears in the [[Pokémon Island Cave|Cave]] area of [[Pokémon Snap]].  It and two other Jigglypuff are being harrassed by a trio of {{p|Koffing}}.  They leave after being saved, but return at the end of the course to Sing for the camera at the very end of the course.  The centermost one uses the anime Jigglypuff's marker as a 'microphone', and inflates itself in anger in the same manner if the [[Poké Flute]] is played over its Singing.
-Also in [[Pokémon Yellow]], there is a Jigglypuff at the [[Pewter City]]'s Pokémon center. If it is interacted with, it will sing its song, which will put {{p|Pikachu}} to sleep. Pikachu will remain where it is standing until the player leaves the center. [[Nurse Joy]] will note the sleeping Pikachu if she is spoken to.
-Jigglypuff is also present at the center in [[Pokémon Red and Blue]], and by extension, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]], although its song has no effect whatsoever. This may be because, unlike in Yellow, all six of the player's Pokémon are inside [[Poké Ball]]s.
-The same Jigglypuff also present in [[Pewter City|Pewter]] center in [[Pokémon Gold and Silver]] and [[Pokémon Crystal]]. However, it doesn't sing its song in those games.
