ぷる and プル are both "puru". ぷる is written in Hiragana characters, プル is writtern in Katakana characters.

To complicate things further, プル is written in so-called "half-width characters; 半角文字", which are from fiarly legacy code system to represent Japanese characters on computers (I am not an expert on computer history...). Today, so-called "full-width characters; 全角文字", プル, are usually used. However, since it gives a funnier feeling, half-width kana is used for this kind of play.

Maybe that was not your question...

It was very enlightening, though, except for the part that starts in the beginning and ends at the end.
