The Magnetic Puffhog is a species of blowhog appearing in Pikmin: Spark. It resembles the Ballooning Puffhog but has a silver hide and rust orange underbelly. Living in damp areas, it stays in one place and emits a pink magnetic field from its body, attracting nearby small creatures. When it attracts enough small creatures, it inflates and rolls over its prey to crush them. Among the creatures it attracts are Pikmin, meaning they can be quite dangerous. However, due to it being able to kill Pikmin only by crushing them, Rock Pikmin are a good choice to fight them as they are immune to the blunt force. Additionally, they can't create magnetic fields while inflated, so using strong attackers during such a time is wise. Still, their unique abilities make them one of the most dangerous creatures to encounter and shouldn't be taken lightly.
