Watery Blowhogs look exactly like Fiery Blowhogs, except that their snouts are tipped with blue instead of red, and are exclusive to Pikmin 2. Instead of fire, they spit out non-flammable liquid that gets stuck on the heads of the Pikmin, excluding Blue Pikmin and Bulbmin, of course. Leaders will be pummeled to the ground if they are caught in the blast. Bulbmin and Blue Pikmin, therefore, are the best Pikmin against this creature due to their water resistance. Purple Pikmin may work as well, just as long as they are thrown on top of the Blowhog, which will temporarily stun it. Blowing the whistle in the area the water is spewed can also cancel out the attack and save the Pikmin caught in the spray instantly.
Just like the Fiery Blowhog, it has lightly coloured segments that are hard to see.

Killing Strategies
Pikmin
Simply swarm the Blowhog. The Pikmin should be called back when the Blowhog begins to buck. If the Pikmin are thrown off, then they usually lose their flowers, and non-Blues will have trouble with the water jet. Calling the Pikmin with the whistle will save them if they are hit by the powerful blast. As always, a considerable amount of Purple Pikmin will kill the Blowhog if thrown onto it. You can also leave some Blues alone to face the Watery Blowhog without harm, but steer the Blowhog away from any potential hazards.
Captains
Merely punching will do. There is a certain distance in which the captains can harm the Blowhog, but not vice-versa, as the kick won't reach the captains.
