The Blizzarding Blowhog is a [[Snowy Blowhog]] that has suffered a similar hormonal imbalance to the [[Titan Blowhog]], resulting in its growth to gargantuan size. It attacks significantly faster than normal, and has increased health. One can be found in the [[Cavern for a King]], along side a [[Titan Blowhog]] as a boss, as well as [[The Mud Pit]]. | |||

It has the same body shape as a Puffy Blowhog, with dark blue skin in the back that fades to white in the front, and has yellow eyes, similar to that of the Snowy Blowhog. It blows icy air that leaves patches of ice on the ground, which can freeze Pikmin that touch them. | ||

It is more recognized over the three airborne Blowhogs. It resembles the [[Withering Blowhog]], but is larger, with purple/light blue stripes, and spines on its back. Also if looked at closely has a row of black spots on its side that look like windows, making it somewhat resemble a {{w|dirigible|dirigible}}. Its breath is stronger than that of the Withering Blowhog, having a larger effected area and sending Pikmin flying. The strategy to take down this beast is simple: quickly toss Pikmin onto it while in the air (one Purple Pikmin will also work) to weigh it down and ground it, then [[swarm]] it or pound it with purples. This species, though more easily recognized, does not appear as often as the Withering Blowhog in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''. | ||

First appearing ''Pikmin 4'', it attacks with icy air that freezes Pikmin, and bucks when taking damage. The best Pikmin to fight them are [[Ice Pikmin]], however, as ice is their only attack, and isn't fatal, any other Pikmin can take them down without the fear of perishing. | ||

The Withering Blowhog is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and {{p4}}. It is a smaller variation of the [[Puffy Blowhog]], and it is orangish-red with a white underside. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are nearby, the Withering Blowhog will move into position and attack by blowing a large gust of air. Unlike the Puffy Blowhog, the Withering Blowhog does not merely blow Pikmin around, but also deflowers them in the process, making this enemy a big pain. This could be deadly in some areas, such as near any type of hazard. To attack it, the Pikmin must be thrown onto it (it doesn't matter where), or at least one [[Purple Pikmin]]. The Blowhog will be grounded for a few seconds, utterly helpless, and it doesn't have very much [[HP|health]], less than its large cousin. | The Withering Blowhog is an enemy in ''[[Pikmin 2]]'' and {{p4}}.
