Channel Description:

Jigglypuff (プリン, Jigglypuff? Purin in original Japanese language versions) are one of the 493 fictional species of Pokémon creatures...

The purpose of Jigglypuff in the games, anime and manga, as with all other Pokémon, is to battle both wild Pokémon, untamed creatures encountered while the player passes through various environments, and tamed Pokémon owned by Pokémon trainers.[2] Jigglypuff are well known for their ability to sing a mysterious melody – containing, as is customary in all Pokémon vocalization, only the word "Jigglypuff" – that instantly puts opponents and passers-by to sleep.

The name Jigglypuff is a portmanteau of the words jiggly, referring to its motion, and puff, referring to its buoyancy. Its Japanese name, Purin, probably derives from purin, the Japanese word for pudding. It may also come from a combination of many Japanese words; fukureru , meaning to swell or expand; fukafukashita, meaning soft or fluffy; fūsen, meaning balloon; and mari, meaning ball. Essentially, it could be taken to mean "a soft and fluffy ball," "a swelling balloon," or a combination of the two.
