Red Pikmin are the most obvious choice to fight a Titan Blowhog, due to their immunity to fire and higher attack power. In an emergency, other types can be used, so long as you are quick on the whistle to save any that are ignited. Small squads of Ice Pikmin should be avoided, as, apart from their lower attack power, they will quickly burn to death if ignited. However, significantly larger squads can potentially freeze it, allowing for one to deal a lot of damage as it is frozen. Titan Blowhogs are sometimes fought in areas where they can potentially buck or blow Pikmin off the map and into the void: To avoid Pikmin falling to their deaths, try to steer the Blowhog to look towards the platforms the cave is made of, and be prepared to disengage should the Blowhog start turning towards the void. Ironically, when fought in an arena like this, Pikmin afflicted by burning will actually be immune to the knockback typically caused by the enemy's flame breath. This can arguably make none-red Pikmin the safer option if the player is savvy with their whistle. The [[Power Whistle]] gear especially helps with this. It should be noted that [[Glow Pikmin]] are entirely immune to both fire and deaths caused by falling into a [[pit]]. | Red Pikmin are the most obvious choice to fight a Titan Blowhog, due to their immunity to fire and higher attack power.

A much faster, if riskier, way to kill it is to throw [[Purple Pikmin]] onto it; their extreme stomping power should kill it within a few cycles. | A much faster, if riskier, way to kill it is to throw [[Purple Pikmin]] onto it; their extreme stomping power should kill it within a few cycles. | ||

[[Punch]]ing a Titan Blowhog to death is ill-advised; while their attacks are not particularly hard to avoid, their high amount of health means that it will take quite a while. Instead, have Oatchi do it, as he can easily take it out on his own, provided he has been upgraded with his [[Scorch Guard]]. The only damage he risks taking is from the Blowhog attempting to buck him away. | [[Punch]]ing a Titan Blowhog to death is ill-advised; while their attacks are not particularly hard to avoid, their high amount of health means that it will take quite a while.
