Wigglytuff (Japanese: プクリン Pukurin) is a Normal-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Jigglypuff when exposed to a Moon Stone. It is the final form of Igglybuff.

Biology

Physiology

Like its pre-evolution, Wigglytuff resembles a pink blob with stubby arms and legs and has a fluffy tuft of fur on its head. However, unlike Jigglypuff, Wigglytuff has long, rabbit-like ears. It is primarily pink in coloration, with a white belly and ear-tips, black ear insides, and large blue eyes. Its body is covered in a fine, soft layer of fur. Considering its fur, ears and feet, Wigglytuff also resembles a rabbit.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Wigglytuff floating

Wigglytuff are capable of inflating themselves to big sizes in order to scare off enemies. Wigglytuff can also sing soothing lullabies to make anyone fall asleep, but its reputation for doing so is not as famous as its basic form, Jigglypuff. Like Clefable and its pre-evolutions, Wigglytuff is capable of wielding various elemental attacks. By inhaling air, it can inflate itself, enabling it to float in the air.

Behavior

Despite its cute demeanor, Wigglytuff is sometimes known for being very aggressive and slapping anyone that gets on its nerves.

Habitat

Wigglyfuff can be found in vivid green plains and grassy fields. It shares its range with Jigglypuff.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Apparently, Wigglytuff love eating Perfect Apples, as shown in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness. However, this could be just the specific Wigglytuff in the game and not any other Wigglytuff.

Trivia

  • Wigglytuff shares the same species name with Jigglypuff, Igglybuff, Qwilfish, and Drifloon. They are all known as the Balloon Pokémon.
  • In its earlier appearances, Wigglytuff's white stomach did not always extend above its mouth; however, it always does this in modern appearances.

Origin

Wigglytuff is probably a combination between a rabbit, a balloon and a plush doll.

Name origin

Wigglytuff's name is a combination of wiggly and tuff, referring to its wobbly shape and either its toughness or the tuft of hair on its head (Pokémon names can only be ten characters in length, and Wigglytough would be eleven).

Pukurin may be from ぷりぷり puripuri (in a huff) and くりくり kurikuri (big and round). It may also be a corruption of プリン purin (pudding), as well as a combination of 風船 fūsen (balloon) and 膨れる fukureru (to expand or inflate).
