Watery Blowhog

Watery Blowhogs look exactly like Fiery Blowhogs, except that their snouts are colored blue. Instead of fire, they spit out a water-like liquid that gets stuck on the Pikmin's heads, excluding Blue Pikmin and Bulbmin and other similar Pikmin. Leaders will be pummeled to the ground if they are caught in the blast, making this one of the few times where leaders can be damaged by water.

Olimar's notes

 * "A variant subspecies of the fiery blowhog, the watery blowhog lacks several of the dominant genes necessary for the production of fire-producing catalysts, and thus expels jets of the nonflammable liquid. This subspecies appears to have only recently evolved. However, the hereditary traits of this variant are dominant and highly robust, so its population is rapidly increasing."

Louie's notes

 * "This beast's unrivaled moistness gives it a melt-in-the-mouth quality that's incomparable."

Olimar's notes

 * "I wonder what would happen if a mix of the Fiery Blowhog and the Watery Blowhog species would end up like... Maybe an air blower... Probably because it would shoot fire and water, turning the water into steam..."

Pikmin V
The Watery Blowhog returns in Pikmin V, completely unchanged from prior incarnations. Notably, it first appears in this game before Blue Pikmin are obtained, making it a dangerous threat.

Brittany's notes
''Which came first: the Watery, or the Fiery? This is a question that is in hot debate (excuse the pun) in the scientific community. It is possible that the Fiery Blowhog refined the Watery Blowhog's chemical into something that combusts, but at the same time, the Watery Blowhog could have changed to avert the dangers of playing with fire, instead opting for a strong dissolving agent.''

Olimar's notes
''The Watery Blowhog is just like the Fiery one, only blue. If you don't have Blue Pikmin to take it out, make sure to avoid the area in front of its snout as you defeat it with your squad.''

Louie's notes
''The super juicy hide essentially comes pre-brined and makes rubs a breeze. Feel free to experiment when grilling such succulence.''
