Blowhog family

The blowhog family is composed of somewhat plump creatures. They can be seen on land or in the air. All blowhogs have a long snout that can blast fire, wind, or water, depending on the species. Blowhogs can maneuver on land or in the air, land blowhogs resembling that of plump, snorting mammals and aerial blowhogs resembling that of blowfish.

Acidic Blowhog


The Acidic Blowhog is a creature that evolved from mutations in certain Watery Blowhog specimens. Watery Blowhogs are actually Fiery Blowhogs whose chemicals do not combust upon contact with open air, making it nothing more than soapy water. The chemicals in the Acidic Blowhog, however, are highly acidic, hence its name, and although they do not combust upon contact with open air, it is a successful defense mechanism for repelling creatures like larger predators or swarms of Pikmin.

Anode Blowhog


The Anode Blowhog looks like a Fiery Blowhog with a yellow snout. It shoots electricity out of this snout, making Yellow Pikmin effective against them.

Blowing Megahog
The Blowing Megahog is a large Puffy Blowhog, sharing their behaviors and colorful appearance.

Bubbling Blowhog
The Bubbling Blowhog is a relative of the Puffy Blowhog. It blows water vapor at Pikmin and leaders, blowing them around, knocking them over, and causing all but Blue Pikmin to begin drowning if they are hit by the attack.

Fiery Blowhog


The Fiery Blowhog is a cousin of the Watery Blowhog which has a red snout and spits fire, making Red Pikmin useful against them. When agitated, Fiery Blowhogs will buck, sending any attacking Pikmin flying.

Fiery Blowlet


The Fiery Blowlet is the younger version of the Fiery Blowhog. To attack, they either blow streams of fire or shoot small fireballs. Like the Fiery Blowhog, it can buck Pikmin off of its back.

Floataswine


The Floataswine is a relative of airborne blowhogs that has evolved to live underwater. Instead of blowing Pikmin away, the Floataswine inhales them and spits them away from the leader they were following. Floataswines can even inhale Pikmin standing on a shoreline, potentially resulting in drowning Pikmin.

Giga Watery Blowhog


The Giga Watery Blowhog is so big because it gives birth to Newborn Blowlets. This massive creature sprays water at its foes and sprays radiation on the newborns to make them able to spray water. The radiation is deadly to all Pikmin and leaders. The Giga Watery Blowhog births Newborn Blowlets even after death, making it dangerous for any Pikmin besides Blue Pikmin carrying its carcass.

Grounding Blowhog
Grounding Blowhogs are related to the Withering Blowhog, but affect Pikmin in the opposite manner. Pikmin that are hit by their breath will become buried and gain flowers, where they can be plucked, making them similar to Mamutas.

Icy Blowhog


The Icy Blowhog is a ground-based blowhog that blows cold air at Pikmin and leaders. Since it is a cold-based attack, cold-resistant Pikmin such as Ice Pikmin and Cyan Pikmin cannot be harmed by their attack.

Needlesnout Blowhog


The Blowhog is a mechanical blowhog that hovers in the air with its propeller and attacks by swapping its mouth for a spike and then charging towards Pikmin and leaders. Its whole body is its weak point that is vulnerable to Rock Pikmin and bomb rocks, similar to Worker Beebs.

Overcharge Blowhog


This creature is similar in shape to the Puffy Blowhog. Like the relationship between the Fiery Blowhog and the Watery Blowhog, the Overcharge Blowhog is a creature that not only uses an electric current to keep its body stable for its floating hydrogen air sac but can also release highly ionized air that reacts upon exiting the blowhog's snout, resulting in a blast of lightning.

Poisonous Blowhog


Poisonous Blowhogs look like their ground-based relatives but have purple snouts instead. As its name would imply, the Poisonous Blowhog spews poison from its trunk, making White Pikmin useful against it.

Puffy Blowhog


The Puffy Blowhog resembles the Withering Blowhog but is larger, and has purple and light blue stripes on its body and spines on its back. Its breath is stronger than that of the Withering Blowhog, having a larger effected area and sending Pikmin flying.

Puffy Blowlet
Puffy Blowlets are the younger form of the Puffy Blowlet. They are easily grounded and their breath attack can only blow Pikmin around. It can, however, blow over lighter Pikmin that are caught in the direct center of the blast, though this is infrequent.

Screeching Blowhog


The Screeching Blowhog looks exactly like its cousins, but it has a pink snout, pink eyes, and a pink tint to its body. This type of blowhog will make a screeching noise. The power of its screech rivals that of a Puffy Blohog's breath attack and can deflower Pikmin.

Static Blowhog
The Static Blowhog floats in the air with its outer skin puffing up and retracting to keep airborne. This foe rumbles its inner body and makes static electricity against its skin and directing it out with its snout. It can also inhale Pikmin and shock them. After it is finished sparking, it spits the Pikmin out at a high velocity towards its attackers.

Sticky Blowhog


The Sticky Blowhog is a land-based blowhog that has a black snout and spews sticky black adhesive. This gunk immobilizes all Pikmin types but Black Pikmin, but is completely harmless otherwise.

Watery Blowhog


Watery Blowhogs look similar to Fiery Blowhogs, except that their snouts are tipped with blue instead of red. They also buck any attacking Pikmin off. Instead of fire, they spit out water that gets stuck on the stems of all Pikmin but Blue Pikmin.

Watery Blowlet
The Watery Blowlet is the younger version of the Watery Blowhog and the water-based equivalent to Fiery Blowlets. They can either spew streams of water or release weak blasts of water at Pikmin and leaders.

Withering Blowhog


The Withering Blowhog is a smaller variation of the Puffy Blowhog, and it is red and yellow with a white underside. When Pikmin are nearby, the Withering Blowhog will move into position and attack by blowing a large gust of air. Unlike the Puffy Blowhog, the Withering Blowhog does not merely blow Pikmin around, but also deflowers them in the process.

Withering Blowlet
Withering Blowlets are the younger form of Withering Blowhogs. They cannot blow over Pikmin whatsoever, but their breath attack can push Pikmin around slightly as well as reduce their maturity by one stage.
