Ghost and Dragon moves don't affect Wigglytuff at all — that's the advantage of Normal/Fairy typing. It works well under Trick Room. Flexible enough to run physical or special sets. An original Gen 1 pick.

Raw HP carries Wigglytuff's bulk more than the defenses do. Defense barely registers. But that HP pool covers for it. A tough to catch Balloon Pokemon that yields 3 HP EVs on a fast 800K XP curve.

Best Build

Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee uses different battle mechanics.

Competitive build content is not applicable for this game. Select a main series game for builds.

TMs carry this one. Wigglytuff learns Hyper Beam and Play Rough naturally for STAB, but the offensive range comes almost entirely from technical machines. Ice and Fighting and beyond give it real matchup play.

    Step 3Wigglytuff
  • We rate Wigglytuff C-Tier — a situational pick that fills a niche. At 435 BST, the stats are spread pretty evenly. Base 140 HP stands out.

  • Wigglytuff's biggest threats include Gengar (Poison) and Steelix (Steel), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 2 weaknesses means fewer dedicated counters to worry about.

  • Jigglypuff evolves into Wigglytuff using a Moon Stone. Wigglytuff is the final evolution in a 3-stage line starting from Igglybuff. It sits at 435 BST in its evolved form.

  • Cute Charm is the go-to ability for Wigglytuff. It has a 30% chance of infatuating attacking Pokémon on contact. Its hidden ability Frisk can work in specific setups. Competitive is the other option — pick based on what your team needs.

  • Base 45 Speed is low. Priority moves or Trick Room are the way to go. On offense, Wigglytuff is leaning toward the special side (base 85 Sp. Atk). Defensively? Enough bulk to take a hit or two.

  • Wigglytuff appears in 21 games, including Yellow, Red & Blue, and Gold & Silver.

One of the original 151, Wigglytuff has appeared in 21 games — nearly every mainline game. From Red & Blue through the latest titles, it's rarely been left out of a regional Pokedex.
