The clip comes from Jigglypuff, the round pink Pokémon, as it appears in Nintendo's Super Smash Bros fighting games, where its light attacks are paired with soft, cartoonish pop sounds rather than heavy impacts. As short game sounds moved onto soundboards and into short-form video, the puff became a handy reaction clip because it is instantly recognisable, very brief and easy to drop over a visual gag. It has stayed popular for the same reason: it turns a hit into a joke without adding aggression, and it fits the playful tone of Pokémon-inspired edits and gaming memes.

A short puff sound from Jigglypuff's attack in Super Smash Bros, used to punctuate a cute hit, a surprise knockout or a cartoon moment in edits.
This is the brief, airy puff that accompanies Jigglypuff's attack in Super Smash Bros, a soft burst of air rather than a heavy impact. It lasts well under a second, opening with a light whoosh and ending in a rounded, almost cartoonish pop that feels more playful than painful. Because Jigglypuff is small, pink and famously sleepy, the sound lands as comedy instead of violence, making a hit feel cute, silly and slightly absurd. In an edit it works as a tiny punctuation mark, a quick payoff after a joke, a failed attempt or an unexpectedly strong slap.
