Physiology
Wigglytuff resembles a pink blob with a fluffy tuft of fur on its head and long rabbit-like ears and a white belly. It has large blue eyes and stubby arms and legs like its pre-evolution, Jigglypuff.
Gender differences
None.

Wigglytuff are capable of inflating themselves to big sizes in order to scare off enemies.

Like Clefable and its pre-evolutions, Wigglytuff is capable of wielding various elemental attacks.

Game data
NPC appearances
- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Wigglytuff sells Friend Areas in Pokémon Square.
- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2: Wigglytuff is the head of the main guild in Treasure Town. His personality tends to be erratic, but he cares about all his friends in the guild, especially his close partner Chatot. He also has a love (some would say obsession) of Perfect Apples, and is basically all he eats. He can often be seen bouncing one off his head during dinner. He is described as peculiar and weird in the game, although he is exceptionally strong, defeating the whole of Team Skull and Kabutops and the Omastar Brothers, as well as numerous others, with ease. Chatot warns not to annoy or disrespect Wigglytuff, as he is liable to explode with anger.
