Fiery Blowhog: Difference between revisions

The '''Fiery Blowhog''' ({{j|ブタドックリ|Buta Dokkuri|Tokkuri Pig}}) is a relative of the [[Watery Blowhog]]. As its name would imply, it shoots fire from its red snout. Fiery Blowhogs are common enemies in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', (despite being smaller than in the first game) but are only found in [[The Forest Navel]] in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''. When provoked by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]], Fiery Blowhogs will buck them off into an area in front of them and shoot fire. In ''Pikmin'', it can be extremely difficult to save burning Pikmin, but blowing the whistle within the area of the Blowhog's attack will ensure that any Pikmin caught in the flames will instantly be extinguished.

In {{hp}}, there is only one Fiery Blowhog, and it is a [[boss]]. Its behavior is a bit different from the main games in the series: in ''Hey! Pikmin'', this beast stands on top of a pillar in the [[Blazing Winds]] and shoots fire at Olimar down below. It is normally too far up to reach, but can be stunned with a [[bomb rock]], and by sneaking to its backside, the player can throw Pikmin at the part of its body that slipped off the platform. It drops the [[Shimmering Skull]] when defeated.

Fiery Blowhogs also have lightly colored segments that are barely visible in-game, but more noticeable in the creature's artwork. They also became more visible in ''Pikmin 3''.
