The '''Withering Blowhog''' is a smaller variation of the [[Puffy Blowhog]], and it has orange-red skin with yellow spots and a white underside that form a flame design. It also has whisker-like appendages under its snout that are white in color. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are nearby, the Withering Blowhog will unleash a gust of air which, although it is significantly less powerful than the Puffy Blowhog's breath, will cause the Pikmin's flowers to instantly wilt. The blast of wind created by Withering Blowhogs can also reach Pikmin behind bramble gates, which makes destroying a gate guarded by one an incredibly frustrating task. To attack it, several Pikmin must be thrown onto its body, or at least one heavy Pikmin such as a [[Purple Pikmin]]. The weight will ground the Blowhog for a few seconds, utterly helpless; it has less vitality than the Puffy Blowhog, but several attacks may still be needed depending on how many Pikmin are on hand. When defeated, it can decompress its float bladder for a quick escape and can drop several randomly-colored [[pellet]]s or other rewards if aboveground.
The '''Withering Blowhog''' is an airborne [[Blowhog family|blowhog]] and a smaller relative of the [[Puffy Blowhog]]. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are nearby, the Withering Blowhog will unleash a [[Wind|gust of air]] that knocks Pikmin down and causes their petals to wilt. After blowing air, it will giggle in happiness if Pikmin are affected by the attack.

After blowing air, it will giggle in happiness, but it will only do this if Pikmin get knocked down. Purple Pikmin will wilt anyway, but will not be knocked back.

:''"The withering blowhog is a close relative of the puffy blowhog, but its breath is significantly weaker. However, its breath does contain a petal-withering plant hormone that causes flowers to instantly lose their petals. Although its breath has not been studied in detail, analysis of the chemical compounds involved hold great promise for the biotechnology sector."''

The Withering Blowhog is an airborne blowhog and a smaller relative of the Puffy Blowhog. When Pikmin are nearby, the Withering Blowhog will unleash a gust of air that knocks Pikmin down and causes their petals to wilt. After blowing air, it will giggle in happiness if Pikmin are affected by the attack. To attack it, several Pikmin, or at least one Purple Pikmin, must be thrown onto its body; the weight will ground the blowhog, momentarily rendering it utterly helpless. When defeated, it decompresses its floatation bladder for a quick escape.

In Pikmin V, the Withering Blowhog behaves as it does in Pikmin 4, as the Puffy Blowhog has also gained a wind burst escape move. While Orange Pikmin are immune to being knocked over by their wind, they will still become leaves.

Notes

Brittany's notes

A Withering Blowhog contains a noxious gas within its sac that instantly renders flowers sterile, causing their petals to wilt. As one would imagine, this causes a reduction of pollinating insects in areas in which it lives. Since this is what it feeds on, the species is slowly dying out. Some suggest that it is an evolutionary middleman between the grounded hogs and the Puffy Blowhog, as it contains both of their identifying body parts, and that is why it has such a self-defeating mechanism.

Olimar's notes

Do not allow its smaller size, speed, and bulk compared to the Puffy Blowhog to fool you. Its wind carries a much harsher punishment: reverting your Pikmin's buds and flowers to mere leaves. Avoid battling it with slow Pikmin, as they risk becoming even slower if they can't avoid the wind.

Louie's notes

For a creative challenge, remove the innards and stuff the cavity space however you wish. If done correctly, the two-tone meal will impress exceptionally.
