The '''Fiery Blowhog''' ({{j|ブタドックリ|Buta Dokkuri|Tokkuri Pig}}) is an enemy in {{p1}}, {{p2}}, and {{p3}}, and a boss in {{hp}}. As its name would imply, it shoots fire from its red snout. They are only found in [[The Forest Navel]] and are larger than in the other main ''[[Pikmin (series)|Pikmin]]'' games in ''Pikmin'', but are found commonly in ''Pikmin 2'' and ''Pikmin 3''. Like all bosses in ''Hey! Pikmin'', only one appears in the game, in [[Blazing Winds]]. In the first two games, 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 ''Hey! Pikmin'', its behavior is a quite different from the main games in the series: this beast stands on top of a pillar 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. As it is now a boss, it is much larger than in the main ''Pikmin'' games. It drops the [[Shimmering Skull]] when defeated. A younger variant can be found in this game, the [[Fiery Blowlet]].

{{naming
The name "Fiery" is, of course, due to its ability to spit out fire. In Japan, it is known as the {{j|ブタドックリ|Buta Dokkuri}}, which translates to "Tokkuri Pig". The "Pig" part comes from its body shape and the sounds it makes. Its scientific name is ''Sus draconus''; ''draconis'' is Latin for "dragon", once again referencing its ability to spit fire. The creature is internally called <code>tank</code> in the main games, likely because of its slow moving and fiery qualities. In ''Hey! Pikmin'', it is instead called <code>butadokuri</code>, which is the Japanese Romanization of its name. Its generator name is also <code>boss_flame_throw</code>, obviously referring to its flame spitting abilities.
