Blowhogs are somewhat plump creatures that resemble pigs. They have air-based and ground-based variants. All blowhogs have a long snout that can blast fire, wind, water, or whatever else depending on the species.
The '''blowhog family''' is composed of somewhat plump creatures. They can be seen on land or in the air. All blowhogs have a long snout that can blast fire, wind, or water, depending on the species. Blowhogs can maneuver on land or in the air, land blowhogs resembling that of plump, snorting mammals and aerial blowhogs resembling that of blowfish.

The Acidic Blowhog is a creature that evolved from mutations in certain Watery Blowhog specimens. Watery Blowhogs are actually Fiery Blowhogs whose chemicals do not combust upon contact with open air, making it nothing more than soapy water. The chemicals in the Acidic Blowhog, however, are highly acidic, hence its name, and although they do not combust upon contact with open air, it is a successful defense mechanism for repelling creatures like larger predators or swarms of Pikmin.

The '''Fiery Blowhog''' is a cousin of the [[Watery Blowhog]] which has a red snout and spits fire. Fiery Blowhogs are common enemies in [[Pikmin 2]] but are only found in [[The Forest Navel]] in [[Pikmin 1]]. When agitated, Fiery Blowhogs will buck, sending any attacking [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] flying. These beasts are also often found near water, a serious hazard to any Pikmin knocked into it. In Pikmin 1, it is very difficult to save the Pikmin from fire, so [[Red Pikmin]] are recommended. Blowing the whistle in the area the fire is spewed can also cancel out the attack and save the Pikmin caught in the flames instantly.{{clear}}

'''Watery Blowhogs''' look similar to [[Fiery Blowhog]]s, except that their snouts are tipped with blue instead of red. They also buck any attacking [[Pikmin Family|Pikmin]] off. Instead of fire, they spit out water that gets stuck on the Pikmins' heads (excluding [[Blue Pikmin]], of course). That being said, the best Pikmin to use against them would be Blues. [[Purple Pikmin]] can also work extremely well when thrown, as they have a chance of stunning the Blowhog, preventing it from attacking. Blowing the whistle in the area the water is spewed can also cancel out the attack and save the Pikmin caught in the spray instantly.{{clear}}
===Bubbling Blowhog===
{{main|Bubbling Blowhog}}
The Bubbling Blowhog is a relative of the Puffy Blowhog. It blows water vapor at Pikmin and leaders, blowing them around, knocking them over, and causing all but [[Blue Pikmin]] to begin drowning if they are hit by the attack.

The '''Puffy Blowhog''' is an enemy in both [[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin games]]. It is more recognized over the two airborne Blowhogs. It resembles the [[Withering Blowhog]], but is larger, with purple/light blue stripes, and spines on its back. Also if looked at closely has a row of black spots on its side that look like windows, making it somewhat resemble a [[Wikipedia:dirigible|dirigible]]. Its breath is stronger than that of the Withering Blowhog, having a larger effected area and sending Pikmin flying. The strategy to take down this beast is simple: quickly toss Pikmin onto it while in the air (one Purple Pikmin will also work) to weigh it down and ground it, then swarm it or pound it with purples. This species, though more easily recognized, does not appear as often as the Withering Blowhog.{{clear}}
===Fiery Blowlet===
[[File:HP Fiery Blowlet.png|left|150px]]
{{main|Fiery Blowlet}}
The Fiery Blowlet is the younger version of the Fiery Blowhog. To attack, they either blow streams of fire or shoot small fireballs. Like the Fiery Blowhog, it can buck Pikmin off of its back.

''Sus decrepitia''
The Floataswine is a relative of airborne blowhogs that has evolved to live underwater. Instead of blowing Pikmin away, the Floataswine inhales them and spits them away from the leader they were following. Floataswines can even inhale Pikmin standing on a shoreline, potentially resulting in drowning Pikmin.

===Giga Watery Blowhog===
[[File:Giga Watery Blowhog.png|left|150px]]
{{main|Giga Watery Blowhog}}
The Giga Watery Blowhog is so big because it gives birth to [[Newborn Blowlet]]s. This massive creature sprays water at its foes and sprays radiation on the newborns to make them able to spray water. The radiation is deadly to all Pikmin and leaders. The Giga Watery Blowhog births Newborn Blowlets even after death, making it dangerous for any Pikmin besides Blue Pikmin carrying its carcass.
{{clear}}


The '''Withering Blowhog''' is an enemy in [[Pikmin 2]]. It is a smaller variation of the [[Puffy Blowhog]], and it is orangish-red with a white underside. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are nearby, the Withering Blowhog will move into position and attack by blowing a large gust of air. Unlike the Puffy Blowhog, the Withering Blowhog does not merely blow Pikmin around, but also deflowers them in the process, making this enemy a big pain. This could be deadly in some areas, such as near any type of hazard. To attack it, the Pikmin must be thrown onto it (it doesn't matter where), or at least one [[Purple Pikmin]]. The Blowhog will be grounded for a few seconds, utterly helpless, and it doesn't have very much health, less than its large cousin. {{clear}}
===Grounding Blowhog===
{{main|Grounding Blowhog}}
Grounding Blowhogs are related to the Withering Blowhog, but affect Pikmin in the opposite manner. Pikmin that are hit by their breath will become buried and gain flowers, where they can be plucked, making them similar to [[Mamuta]]s.
