CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Jigglypuff begins by captivating its audience with its large eyes, then lets its voice take over. Its song can put listeners to sleep, and its breath lets it sustain the melody. Beneath this round, light appearance lies a determined performer, capable of turning an encounter into a lullaby whose ending the opponent does not really get to choose.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

Not every Jigglypuff sings in the same way. Pokémon Ultra Moon describes differences according to their region of origin; some songs even resemble shouts. Their vocal talent thus has a diversity that their appearance does not suggest.
