The Toxic Blowhog appears in Pikmin 251 as a close relative of the Watery Blowhog. It wanders idly around in a triangular pattern until Pikmin or leaders walk close enough by it. It will then slightly inflate before unleashing a jet of poison gas at them, an attack only White Pikmin are resistant to.
The Toxic Blowhog is a rotund, elephantine creature identical in appearance to the Fiery Blowhog except for its purple-tipped trunk.
Although it spews poison, a Toxic Blowhog can be killed easily by any Pikmin type. Swarming is often the optimal strategy, but pay attention to when it prepares to buck Pikmin off of itself, especially if it is facing a pit.
Notes
Olimar's observations
- “While the Fiery Blowhog didn't seem any different for this journey, this all new variety makes up for it. It appears to expel toxic gas instead of fire or liquid. I wonder where these creatures were on my last visit, and why I haven't seen the water based ones anywhere.”
Cookin' with Louie
- “Inedible. The stench of this creature's poison sack is enough to make you gag.”

The Poisonous Blowhog is a species of blowhog appearing in Pikmin: The After Years. It looks almost exactly like its land-based relatives but it has a purple snout and eyes. It attacks by spewing a stream of poison at its foes. White Pikmin are useful for fighting them because of their immunity to poison but are not required. Purple Pikmin can also be effective because of their ability to stun.

The Toxic Blowhog is a new enemy appearing in Pikmin: Decayed Leaf. The creature takes on the regular white body shape of a Fiery Blowhog, Watery Blowhog, and Bubble-Blowing Blowhog. However, the creature has a purple-tipped snout and a soft, light purple underbelly. The creature functions like most Blowhogs, wandering around until Pikmin approach. When this happens, the Blowhog will charge its attack and fire out a large burst of poisonous clouds. Non-White Pikmin will be poisoned by the Blowhog's attacks. This makes them the best type to use when fighting the Toxic Blowhog.

The Fumey Blowhog is a blowhog appearing in Pikmin: Elemental Speciation. It looks identical to other land-based blowhog species, except for the purple coloration of its snout. When attacking, it spews a short cone of poison, which lingers after it stops spewing, at the cost of having less range. This poison will choke any Pikmin that are not White Pikmin. It can be dispersed early by some Green Pikmin hosts with blowing abilities, like Puffy Blowhogs.
This creature's scientific name is based on "halitosis", the medical name for a chronic condition of bad breath, which in itself originated from the Latin word halitus, with the suffix -osis, meaning diseased.
Notes
Olimar's notes
- “This blowhog evolved curiously from a species of flying blowhog that evolved to produce a toxic gas as an alternative flotation and attack method, but then de-evolved the ability to fly in favor of a stronger, more compact toxic gas.”
Louie's notes
- “The gas bladder must be removed carefully to avoid damaging it and filling your kitchen with a scent of rotten eggs that is nearly impossible to remove. And the taste of the meat isn't anything to write home about except that it tastes a bit like almonds if undercooked. Overall not worth the effort unless you really like almonds.”
Shacho's notes
- “This beast's stinky breath may be toxic to the pikmin, but all it does to us is smell bad. I mean really bad. I'd hate to be hit by a stink bomb made from one of these. Which is why I'm only selling them to distant planets.”

The Munge Blowhog is a species of blowhog appearing in Pikmin: Spark. They behave and look the same as the other two elemental blowhogs, the Fiery Blowhog and Watery Blowhog, with the main exception being that they spew poisonous gas from their purple-snouted trunk. This means that White Pikmin should be used to help takes these toxic creatures down. Interestingly, they have slightly less health than the other two types of elemental blowhogs, perhaps to compensate for the White Pikmin's low attacking power.
Notes
Abel's medical journal
- “To a Pikmin, its gas is essentially cyanide, but to us, it can be a rejuvenating if potent numbing agent good for surgeries.”
Lyn's sale review
- “Have an ache in your body? Take this chemical, mix it with paste, rub it with a soft towel, then rest to allow the chemicals to do their stuff.”

Notes
Olimar's notes
- “This species of blowhog is similar to the fiery blowhog in most respects. The main difference between these two kinds of blowhogs is that the chemical released by the poisonous blowhog reacts with the air the instant it is expelled, creating a gas poisonous to most Pikmin. White Pikmin, however, are only knocked over by the noxious jet.”
Louie's notes
- “This specimen is extremely delicious upon immediate consumption, although long-term effects may include severe stomach pains and excessive burping.”
