JIGGLYPUFF’s vocal chords 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.

Jigglypuff Weakness

Jigglypuff's Normal typing leaves it vulnerable to Fighting. It shrugs off Ghost-type attacks completely. Only 1 weakness makes it relatively easy to build around defensively.
