A Jigglypuff is one of the main characters from the Magical Pokémon Journey manga. She is a rich, spoiled Pokémon who lives in a mansion with her sister, Wigglytuff, and a butler, Squirtle. She loves to cook, despite the fact that she is a bad chef and her cooking often causes others to become ill.
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
- Main article: Jiggly
Green of Pokémon Adventures has a Jigglypuff nicknamed Jiggly. It is her starter Pokémon and is capable of swelling up to several times its size, allowing Green to float with it like a hot-air balloon as well as block narrow passageways -- a tactic instrumental in helping Silver and her escape the Masked Man. Later, in the FireRed & LeafGreen arc, it evolved into a Wigglytuff alongside two of Green's other Pokémon with the power of her Moon Stones. Notably, in Chuang Yi's translation, it is the only Pokémon on her team without a nickname despite being the first Pokémon she ever received. The reason for this is that during her captivity under the Masked Man, she was reprimanded for wishing to nickname it.

Trivia
- Jigglypuff is typically depicted in the Smash Bros. series and other 3D games, Rough, Tough Jigglypuff and other anime episodes, and Ken Sugimori's art with green eyes and tea rose pink fur, more closely resembling its Shiny form.
- Jigglypuff's evolutionary family shares the same species name with Qwilfish and Drifloon. They are all known as Balloon Pokémon.
- Jigglypuff's Crystal still sprite is different from that of Gold and Silver, making it one of few Pokémon to have three distinctly different sprites in Generation II.
- In the Super Smash Bros. series, Jigglypuff is the only character to keep its original voice track through all three games.
- Jigglypuff is one of the only Pokémon that is able to be caught in every main series game of every generation, including remakes and expansion games.
Origin
It appears to be based on a balloon and a pink puff. Because of its color, shape, as well as its ability to puff up and float, Jigglypuff may have also been based on Kirby.
Name origin
Jigglypuff is a combination of jiggly and puff, referring to its wobbly shape and ability to inflate itself.
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 (pudding).
