Wigglytuff (Japanese: プクリン Pukurin) is a dual-type Normal/Fairy Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation VI, it was a pure Normal-type Pokémon.

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

Biology

Wigglytuff floating

Wigglytuff is a Pokémon with a bean-shaped body and stubby arms and legs. There is a fluffy, curled tuft of fur on its head. It has long, rabbit-like ears with black insides and slightly lighter color at the tips. Its large, blue eyes are covered in layer of tears that quickly washes away any debris. It is covered in pink fur with a white belly. This fine layer of fur is so soft that those who touch it, including other Wigglytuff, will not want to stop. It sheds seasonally, and people gather the fur to spin into yarn. Its body is soft and rubbery, allowing it to inflate by inhaling. Wigglytuff can inflate itself up to 20 times larger. While it is inflated, it is able to move by bouncing or floating. It competes with other Wigglytuff to see which one can inflate itself the most. Wigglytuff can be found in vivid green plains and grassy fields.

Game data

NPC appearances

• Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Wigglytuff sells Friend Areas in Pokémon Square.
• Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and Explorers of Sky: 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.

Trivia

• Wigglytuff and its evolutionary relatives share their category name with Qwilfish and Drifloon. They are all known as the Balloon Pokémon.
• Wigglytuff has the highest base HP of all Fairy-type 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 appears to be based on a balloon. Its ears resemble that of a rabbit.

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.

Pukurin may be from ぷりぷり puripuri (in a huff) and くりくり kurikuri (big and round), or from ぷくぷく pukupuku (cute and chubby; puffed up). 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).
