In ''Pikmin'', it moves in the air much faster, making a head-on ambush nearly impossible unless the enemy is cornered. If it does blow Pikmin away, they can fly incredible distances, so check the radar to see if any non-Blue Pikmin have landed in the water, and if not, continue the assault. | In ''Pikmin'', it moves in the air much faster, making a head-on ambush nearly impossible unless the enemy is cornered.

In ''Pikmin 2'', Purple Pikmin are immune to the knockback of the Puffy Blowhog, as are leaders if the [[Repugnant Appendage]] has been collected. With both, the Puffy Blowhog becomes harmless. | In ''Pikmin 2'', Purple Pikmin are immune to the knockback of the Puffy Blowhog, as are leaders if the [[Repugnant Appendage]] has been collected. With both, the Puffy Blowhog becomes harmless. A single [[Purple Pikmin]] is enough to make it fall. Its breath is also less effective, and cannot wither Pikmin flowers. It is found only in caves, often with many [[gate]]s, so it can be a problem to hit when it is behind one. Use Purple Pikmin to take down the wall it guards, then move in for an assault. | ||
In ''Pikmin 3'', Winged Pikmin can be used to swarm it in mid-air and defeat it easily, but otherwise, the strategies from the first two games work well. Seeing as they cannot make Pikmin [[Maturity|flowers or buds wilt]], leaving a group of Winged Pikmin to take care of it is normally a good idea, as the Pikmin do not need a leader to throw them in order to attack. Rock Pikmin can also drain the enemy's [[health]] rather quickly. Because it inflates when it lands on the ground, it is advised to [[whistle]] your Pikmin to you when you see that the creature is starting to fall; it will not push away Pikmin if there are none attacking it. Then, proceed to [[charge]] like normal. | In ''Pikmin 3'', Winged Pikmin can be used to swarm it in mid-air and defeat it easily, but otherwise, the strategies from the first two games work well.

In ''Pikmin 4'', the creature's much less aggressive with shaking off Pikmin, and will behave as it does in the first two games, laying on the ground for a moment before attempting to go back into the air. It also can blow Pikmin farther than in the previous two appearances, but nowhere near as far as it could in ''Pikmin''. Despite withering being caused by almost everything in this game, even [[panic]], its breath still cannot wither Pikmin flowers. | |||
