The Frosthop Blowhog is an airborne blowhog found in the files of Hey! Pikmin. It is at least partially transparent and has alternating cyan and blue bands spanning the entire length of its body and chunks of either crystal or ice on its backside. Its behavior is unknown, but judging from its orientation, it possibly could have hovered over Pikmin and leaders by blowing air onto them, maybe to prevent Pikmin from being thrown or make them cold.

The Frosthop Blowhog is a species of blowhog that appears in Pikmin 2... Again?, replacing the Icy Blowhog. It resembles its Hey! Pikmin incarnation, being cyan with blue stripes, with the top of its body being frozen, coated with ice crystals. It is always pointed toward the ground. It is also smaller than the Puffy Blowhog, making it one of the smallest flying blowhogs, surpassed only by the Aromatic Blowpuff. The Frosthop Blowhog flies through the air, and when spotting Pikmin and leaders, the creature will hover toward them until above them, at which point it'll spew cold wind, freezing any except the Ice Pikmin and Glow Pikmin. Due to its back being coated in ice, only ice-resistant Pikmin can attack its entire body, but any Pikmin can attack the bare portions. Once defeated, the Frosthop Blowhog will deflate like a balloon, flying into the air before falling to the ground, similar to the Puffy Blowhog, Withering Blowhog, and Party Blower.

The Frosthop Blowhog appears in Pikmin: Interstellar Cryptid, resembling an upright Icy Blowhog with ice crystals on its back. It's often found affixed to the floor by its suction-like snout, not unlike a Suckerpunch Blowhog. When approached, it will spurt out some cold air from its snout, elevating it into the air. When directly above Pikmin, it will release an even stronger blast of cold air to freeze them. Ice Pikmin are recommended because of this.

Notes

Olimar's notes

A close relative of the blowtorch and suckerpunch blowhogs, the frosthop blowhog has less mobility due to the cold air circulating through its body, as cold air is denser than hot air. It uses its ice breath as both a means of locomotion and for freezing prey.

Louie's notes

When a piece of its skin is severed, it grows stiff in a way comparable to hard candy. Add a nice sugar glaze and enjoy this dessert jerky!

Bentley's notes

Big, round, and bouncy like a space hopper. I'd imagine this type of life would be a fun one to live! I always loved the idea of floating in the air, suspended and restful... Man, I love zero-G space travel.

Eloise's notes

When the creature spits frost all over my helmet, it makes seeing that much harder. Thankfully, our suits are well insulated, so it's a simple matter to wipe our helmets clean. I'm just glad I'm not this creature, he probably gets bad headaches from his posture.
