Question:
Jigglypuff's 'Rest' Move, Useless?
 Psycho Pichu Trainer |
Date of Question: Feb 1 2008 | Question ID: 108711 My friend claims that Jigglypuff's Up B Move (Rest) Can be an awesome move. He Claims you can knock out a player by landing on them while using rest. I highly doubt this is true (I've never done it), So Smash Masters, think you can help me out? Thanks.
Comment:(Feb 4 2008) Thanks Guys, Yes it was Down B. Im horrible with remembering exact moves. To answer the question of why dont I try it, I had tried it and my friend had tried it, neither of us could do it. I was successful (and have finally mastered the move) Thanks to you guys. Thanks! ^^

Well, yes and no.
Yes- It has the potential to be a pwerful move, and SOMETIMES (Not always) knocks the other player off the screen.
No- You cannot knock someone out by landing on them and using it, you must be touching the person when you use it, or the move will fail. The other person should be standing still, too, or you will probably miss.
There are much stronger moves than that though. Experiment in training mode.

Make sure you're touching the opponent. Have a practice in Training and make the opponent stand still.

I could have sworn that the rest move is DOWN + B. The up + B is the sing move to put everyone to sleep. But the down + B is the move I use when I have to use jigglypuff. Since I suck as her, anyway. Though it DOES work on lighter people, it doesnt knock 'em off all the time. It's a little weaker on heavy guys (DUH). The landing on 'em and using the move only works if you are high up, or they already have some damage. Otherwise, they shoot streight up. And you really have to be close. I've had cases where it literally looked like I was inside the dude, and the move failed. And he knocked me off while I was "sleeping". And I got mad. And I lost. And cussed a bit. Over a game.
And why are you asking people online before trying it? Do you not trust your friend are something? Just asking.

First of all it is down + B. Second of all, you have to be as close to the person as you can get. I suggest running to someone and right before you run through them press down + b.

Not exactly useless, but can be trouble for using Jigglypuff.
By the way, it's Down+B to use Rest, not Up+B, which makes Jigglypuff sing and the opponents sleep, which is totally useless if you are fighting a hard Computer.
Rest: I call Rest a "Knock-Out move" since it can deal a powerful blow maybe enough to kill an opponent if high damage is given to him/her/it. Rest is also a risky move since if you miss, you are in a position of being dealt with a powerful blow, so don't do this move unless needed.
The way to use Rest: Basically, you just touch your opponent, but beware that your opponent can move to avoid this attack, and put you in a position to die. You need good timing against a moving character, and just timing against someone who isn't moving.
Best to practice this move, since this is both Useful and Risky.

Just try it and see.
It will take some reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaalllllllly good practice so first try it in training mode.
P.S. If you want to get giga bowsers trophy look at my submission in the user submitted hints section.
