Flavor Text

: When it wavers its big, round eyes, it begins singing a lullaby that makes everyone drowsy.
: Looking into its cute, round eyes makes it start singing a song so pleasant listeners can’t help but fall asleep.

: It captivates foes with its huge, round eyes, then lulls them to sleep by singing a soothing melody.
: If it inflates to sing a lullaby, it can perform longer and cause sure drowsiness in its audience.
: Jigglypuff’s vocal cords can freely adjust the wavelength of its voice. This Pokémon uses this ability to sing at precisely the right wavelength to make its foes most drowsy.
: When this Pokémon sings, it never pauses to breathe. If it is in a battle against an opponent that does not easily fall asleep, Jigglypuff cannot breathe, endangering its life.

: It hugely inflates its stomach and sings a mysterious melody. If you hear this melody, you’ll become sleepy right away.
: Jigglypuff possess a vocal range that exceeds 12 octaves, but each individual’s singing skill depends on its own effort.
: Recordings of Jigglypuff’s strange lullabies can be purchased from department stores. These CDs can be found near the bedding area.
: The songs they sing are totally different depending on the region they live in. Some even sound like they’re shouting!
