Wigglytuff (Life & Death)

Wigglytuff (プクリン, Pukurin) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Life or Death.
Wigglytuff, is a creature from the Pokémon series. It debuted in the series' first generation and is the final evolution of both Jigglypuff and its pre-evolution, Igglybuff when the former is exposed to a Moon Stone. Wigglytuff first appears as one of the 151 species of Pokémon in Pokémon Red and Green, and has appeared in all subsequent mainline installments (though it was absent from Pokémon Sword and Shield until a post-release update). It is characterized by its bean-shaped body, stubby arms and legs, and glassy eyes. Initially, Wigglytuff was solely a Normal-type Pokémon, but in Generation VI, it gained the newly-introduced Fairy type as its secondary type. The Pokédex categorizes Wigglytuff at #040 as the "Balloon Pokémon".
Wigglytuff is an Echo Fighter of Jigglypuff and serves as a heavier, stronger, and slower take on Jigglypuff's moveset with some changes such as Body Slam rather than Pound.
Wigglytuff is voiced by Sarah Notchenny in the Western versions of Life or Death while Yū Kobayashi voices it in the Japanese version, also voicing both Lucina and Katsuragi in the same version of the game as well.

*Wigglytuff is much heavier than Jigglypuff and can last longer during battles.
*Wigglytuff is unable to be insta-ko'd if the shield breaks during battle.
*Wigglytuff features four mid-air jumps instead of six compared to Jigglypuff.
*Wigglytuff uses Body Slam rather than Pound, the latter being very similar to Wario's Shoulder Bash move from the Wario Land series.

 	Name 	Description
Neutral Attack 	N/A 	Wigglytuff performs two alternating punches.
Forward Tilt 	N/A 	A roundhouse kick. It can be angled
Up Tilt 	N/A 	A scorpion kick. Unless the opponent has a tall hurtbox, this move will fail to hit anyone in front of Wigglytuff.
Down Tilt 	N/A 	A low to the ground shin kick.
Dash Attack 	N/A 	Leaps forwards while doing a headbutt.
Forward Smash 	N/A 	Lunges forwards while kicking.
Up Smash 	N/A 	An upwards headbutt.
Down Smash 	N/A 	A spinning split kick.
Neutral Aerial 	N/A 	A flying kick.
Forward Aerial 	N/A 	A dropkick.
Back Aerial 	N/A 	A spinning back kick. This causes Wigglytuff to turn around, similar to Marth's back aerial.
Up Aerial 	N/A 	Waves its arm in an overhead arcing motion.
Down Aerial 	N/A 	A diagonal corkscrew dropkick.
Grab 	N/A 	Reaches out. Has very short range, but is very fast.
Pummel 	N/A 	Kicks the opponent.
Forward Throw 	N/A 	Puffs up once to launch the opponent forward.
Back Throw 	N/A 	A German suplex.
Up Throw 	N/A 	Spins once to fling the opponent upward, leaving a trail of sparkles.
Down Throw 	N/A 	Pins the opponent to the ground and then rolls back and forth on their back, which launches them upward.
Neutral Special	Rollout 	Rolls forward to slam into the opponent. Its power, range, and speed can be increased by holding the special button. It cannot be held indefinitely, however, and will automatically release a little bit after it reaches max charge. When fully charged, it does quite a bit of shield damage. If not charged until Wigglytuff glows, it will harmlessly roll once. On the ground, Rollout's direction can be changed mid-roll, which deals no damage until the turn is complete; in the air, pressing left or right will alter Wigglytuff's roll speed. When Rollout is fully charged, Wigglytuff will voice its name and briefly flash. Hitting a non-shielding opponent will cause Wigglytuff to rebound, which renders it unable to do anything else, apart from shifting its direction, until it lands or is hit. It can, however, control its direction during the rebound.
Side Special 	Body Slam	Wigglytuff launches forward and slams the opponent with its entire body. Though animated similarly to its appearance in the core Pokémon games, it functions very similarly to Wario's dash attack, being the iconic Shoulder Bash from the Wario Land games.
Up Special 	Sing 	Sings a song that puts nearby opponents to sleep. The more damaged opponents are, the longer they will sleep, making them open for a followup attack. However, the song is short-ranged, has a reactable startup of 27 frames, consists of three brief pauses, and leaves Wigglytuff itself vulnerable to being attacked. Unlike typical up specials, Sing does not grant any vertical distance, but it does retain slight mobility.
Down Special 	Rest 	Falls asleep, dealing a single hard hit to any opponents directly touching Wigglytuff. It has almost no start-up lag (2 frames) and deals an extreme amount of vertical knockback if landed, and benefits from rage, due to possessing very high base knockback. It also puts a flower on the opponent's head that deals continuous damage. If Rest lands, Wigglytuff will be able to act as soon as its eyes open.
Final Smash 	Puff Up 	Rapidly inflates itself to a gargantuan size and launches all opponents near it horizontally while saying "Wiggly!" before "popping" and quickly deflating back to its normal size. Wigglytuff's size is so great when inflating that its body completely takes up smaller stages and even some medium-sized ones, making it difficult to escape. There are two hitboxes, with the second one dealing more damage and knockback than the first.

==Fighter Spirits==
Wigglytuff's Fighter Spirit can be obtained by completing Classic Mode. It is also available periodically for purchase in the shop for 500 coins. Unlocking Wigglytuff in The Kiss of Death allows the player to preview the first spirit below in the Spirit List under the name "???". As a Fighter Spirit, it cannot be used in Spirit Battles and is purely aesthetic. Each Fighter Spirit has an alternate version that replaces them with their artwork in Life & Death.
