Jigglypuff's gender has never been confirmed in the Smash series, but many people often assign her it a gender regardless. What gender do you usually see Jigglypuff as?

Sorry you are wrong puff is female bc you can't ruin my character for me.I've always seen mine as a male, or the ones I use, anyway. Many of the costumes are more obviously female-looking to me, but I haven't found myself using them as much outside of the occasional blue bow in 64 and crown in Melee (though I guess technically neither of those have to be female, but that's how I see them). I mainly gravitated toward no-hat Jiggs in 64 and Melee (always saw it as a male), then sleepy cap in Brawl (same), and even though I use Leaf's cap in Wii U, it looks like a boy to me because of the boater style it has going on. Ironically, the bug catcher's hat is only worn by male trainers in the games, yet I've always seen that Jigglypuff as female. LOL
Not to get too far off-track here, but I've also seen a lot of people refer to Pikachu as a girl in Smash, and while that could be the case classically since, like Jigglypuff, Pikachu is a species of Pokemon, more modern female Pikachus have heart-shaped ends to their tails... I was actually hoping that would be incorporated in some of the alts in this entry to the series, but alas.
I'm pretty sure Sakurai refereed to Jiggs as a girl on a few occasions. Jigglypuff's are also female 75% of the time, so it's safe to assume at least 6 of the costumes are female. The lady hats are a good hint as well, that she is in fact female. I'd rather just say Jiggs is a chick.I'm not the one to ask, but I would say "it" or "they" when referring to Jiggs, like how people often say "they" when they're talking about someone whose gender they don't know (like if the person they're talking to said, "My friend" or something).
Speaking of grills, that profile pic tho.Jiggs is a grill, nuff said
Those aren't grills, they're shiny teeth that sparkle just like the stars in space...Speaking of grills, that profile pic tho.
Also, totally on the grill train.
Welp.I'm pretty sure Sakurai refereed to Jiggs as a girl on a few occasions. Jigglypuff's are also female 75% of the time, so it's safe to assume at least 6 of the costumes are female. The lady hats are a good hint as well, that she is in fact female. I'd rather just say Jiggs is a chick.

I agree with you all that the majority of palettes were intended to be female, but there's really no reason to believe it's so one-sided, or try to make it that way. Sakurai may have referred to Jiggs as a girl, even on "numerous occasions", but that could simply mean he mainly sees it as a girl, not that they're all girls (because, as stated, not all Jigglypuffs are girls, and there's literally no way of telling the difference between male and female Puffs unlike Pikachu, which shouldn't even be a question or involve the hats at this point according to the modern female Pikachu tail). Also, I've often seen references to how controlling either The Pokemon Company or Game Freak Inc. (can never remember which one this applies to) can be when it comes to cases like these, so Sakurai may have had little input on the gender for each individual Jigglypuff palette. People often seem to forget just how many are involved with the various properties Sakurai works with.What gender do you usually see Jigglypuff as?
