Wigglytuff overview
Wigglytuff is a dual Normal and Fairy type Balloon Pokémon and holds number #40 in the National Pokédex.
It stands 1 m tall and weighs 12 kg, and it was first introduced in Generation I where it is typically found in Grassland habitats.
It’s proud of its fur, which is fine and delicate. In particular, the curl on its forehead has a texture that’s perfectly heavenly. The more air it takes in, the more it inflates.
