Puffy Blowhog

The Puffy Blowhog floats gently in the air, and when it finds Pikmin or leaders, it blows them away with a strong gust of air. Before blowing air, it first needs to stop and inhale. It floats high in the air, but low enough for thrown Pikmin to reach. It can shake Pikmin off, though if overwhelmed and weighed down, it'll be brought to the ground, and be vulnerable to attacks for a few seconds. It will then attempt to go back into the air, but if it has too many Pikmin on it, will not succeed. In, it can instantly inflate when it crashes on the ground, throwing off latched Pikmin.

In Pikmin Eco
The Puffy Blowhog is an aerial variant of blowhog appearing in Pikmin Eco alongside its terrestrial relatives and the Eroding Blowhog. It's more akin to its incarnation and is able to be collected and brought back to the ship after being killed. It will fly around a selected area and, when Pikmin or leaders venture close, it will blow a strong wind at them to send them flying. This doesn't technically harm them, but it could potentially launch either into hazards or other dangers depending on the location.

The Puffy Blowhog appears in Pikmin: The Bulblaxian War as a blowhog that tends to inhabit locations wherein it can easily blow Pikmin and leaders off ledges. A trio of them appears in the Temple of Ice.
