''"I wonder just how this planet's life-forms evolved. This creature belches fire, of all things! Once the Pikmin get caught up in the inferno, there is nothing that can be done. If only they had the power to face such flames without fear of burning..."'' | |||
===Reel notes=== | |||
''"This creature expels a combustible phosphor that ignites at moderate temperatures."'' | |||
===Olimar's Notes=== | |||
''"This creature expels a volatile phosphorous compound from its snout that combusts upon contact with air. This fire-breathing ability is dependent upon the air-to-fuel ratio at its mouth, catalyst reaction within the expelled compound, and purification of the compound. Thus it is highly unlikely such a complex process could cause the spontaneous explosion of a fallen blowhog. (This process is also perhaps to avoid risk of spontaneous combustion in the belly of a live specimen.) However, one should still treat a fiery blowhog with great care, even after its life functions have ceased."'' | |||
===Louie's Notes=== | |||
''"Roast this flavorful beast for several hours, letting it stew in its own succulent juices. Don't worry about overcooking this beast...it's scorch-proof."'' | |||

In ''[[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]],'' Fiery Blowhogs are relatively easy to kill. Throwing is inefficient because soon after the [[Pikmin]] latch on to one, it will buck and fling the Pikmin off. Swarming the front of the beast is best, although it is strongly recommended to use [[Red Pikmin]], due to the fact that immediately after bucking, it will blast your Pikmin with its scorching flames. After being shaken off, your Pikmin will automatically get up and continue attacking the Blowhog. All you do is just stand and watch. One problem is that they often fling Pikmin off into water and, in some cases, off the map, but calling them back with a whistle will save them. | In ''[[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]],'' Fiery Blowhogs are relatively easy to kill.
