Let's take some time to talk about how great Pound is.

[Mushroom Scoot]

Topic.

Frankly, It's my favorite single special move in the game.

1. It's adorable.
2. Cancels out freaking everything. (Even falcon punches)
3. Recovery.
4. RISING POUND
5. POFF!

 

[Steel]

Pound is win.

 

[Ree301]

it no longer cancels out Samus' charge shot however hard to believe, but it's been nerfed as far as priority and damage go.

 

[poncho_mcshoe]

Jiggly PUNCH!

 

[1HKO]

Best combo starter/recovery helper combo out there!

 

[TheStig]

i like the pound's priority and duration.

 

[poncho_mcshoe]

Pound, and the # 7 $, are the reasons I play Jiggz.

 

[Finch]

Pound sucks in brawl except for recovery

That's okay, it's not like Samus charge shot has any kill potential anymore. heh

Uh...what game are you playing?

So true, haha!

I love how she stops moving but the hitbox is still ******* around at full power.
Also, falling pound is fun to use.

 

[Mada90]

I love falling pound too,it's really useful when you're a bit too high on the ledge to correct the height and grab it.Also for mindgames and jerking around.

 

[Tyser]

WTF is falling pound?

 

[Phampy]

The opposite of Rising Pound. Instead of tilting the control stick up when you use Pound, tilt it down so that Jiggly's Pound makes her descend.

 

[Emperor Mario]

What are the attacks that pound can't outprioritise?

 

[Pai]

I love it <3 It doesn't rise as much, but still. I just realized how awesome it is. It reaches farther than I thought it did.

 

[KiteDXX]

The long-lasting hitbox is amazing.

It's pretty much the only approach I use until I can fair or bair at close range in the air. Probably her best attack in terms of utility this time around.

 

[Mushroom Scoot]

Certain characters are so adorably helpless against pound.
Ike, for example. Unless he decides to block, there isn't anything he can do about a pound coming at his face.
And big characters? Fuggetabouttit.

 

[_Phloat_]

No one has mentioned its undesirable effects on shields!

I will start.

It has undesirable effects on shields.

 

[Glick]

And look at this.

little old me was about to make a thread about rising and falling pound.
I'm trying to figure out if theres a difference in the rise/fall of the person your attacking.
This could help with combos.

Maybe i'll start it.

Anyway.
I <3 pound.

 

[blueshirt314]

The thing I love about Pound is that it is totally underrated. It packs a wallop, extends Jigglypuff's already beastly recovery, and pops the enemy behind you so that any opponent trying to edge-guard suddenly finds the tables turned. It was certainly nerfed from Melee, but it still serves its purpose well and I still have several friends scratching their heads to find out exactly what non-special attack I used to break their shields. (Pound TOTALLY looks like a FTilit or a FSmash, doesn't it? XD)

 

[TechnoMonster]

Pound is OK, but laggy. Its a meaty attack, so its best to hit with the very end of the animation and cancel it into a quick aerial or dodge to avoid getting donked.

 

[Airgemini]

You gotta love pound.
Has many applications to it.

 

[Finch]

Pound is bad bad bad bad in brawl. If you miss, you are left wide open from above/behind. If they shield it, you get shieldgrabbed. If it actually connects all you can do is run away because everyone's dair goes through jiggs' uair/usmash/utilt. Pound is only good against bad players.

 

[illinialex24]

Pound does not beat Lucas's U-smash... I also think you exchange hits with C. Falcon's down-b on the ground, because that happened to me in a game or two.

And whoever said pound is for noob players...
A purely pound approach is. However, if you do it after an approach and then pound, it works out well. Also, it neutralizes most projectiles...

 

[GhettoSheep]

When used well, the pound is one of jigglys best moves. It has a lot of range and decent power. It lasts as long as a sex kick but the hitbox is way bigger and the damage doesnt decrease the longer its out. it can set up for utilts at low %s and is great for recovering back to the ledge and switching sides with your opponent, and then WoPing them off the stage.

"PUFF!"
