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 name "Fiery" is, of course, due to its ability to spit out 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 Romanaziation of "pork", without spaces. Its generator name is also <code>boss_flame_throw</code>, obviously referring to its flame spitting abilities. | ||
