The '''Puffy Blowhog''' is an enemy in both Pikmin games. It is the more recognized species of the two airborne Blowhogs. It resembles the [[Withering Blowhog]], but is larger, with purple/light blue stripes, and spikes on top. It is stronger than the Withering Blowhog, as its blowing range is bigger. The Puffy Blowhog, however, cannot deflower your Pikmin. The easiest way to defeat it is this: weigh it down with many [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]], or one [[Purple Pikmin]], then swarm it or pound it with any color, with purples working the fastest. This species, though more easily recognized, does not appear as often as the Withering Blowhog. Note that [[Yellow Pikmin]] will fly farther when blown due to their smaller weight.

The Puffy Blowhog is an enemy in both Pikmin games. It is the more recognized of the two airborne Blowhog species, although it is much more rare than its cousin in the second game. It resembles the Withering Blowhog, but is larger, with purple/light blue stripes and spines on its back. Its breath is notably stronger than that of the Withering Blowhog, but does not cause Pikmin flowers to wilt, as it lacks the withering plant hormones which are characteristic of this beast's flying relative. The easiest way to defeat it to weigh it down by rapidly tossing Pikmin onto its body — a single Purple Pikmin will work just as effectively. Once grounded, swarm the defenseless creature with Pikmin, or pound it with heavy Purples.

In the first game they appear in The Distant Spring, and are only rarely seen within a few caves in Pikmin 2.
