You should use [[Red Pikmin]] to fight against it, but you should also get the [[Scorch Guard]] from [[Russ]] since you may be damaged by the fire.

Titan Blowhogs are larger versions of Fiery Blowhogs similar to how the Blizzarding Blowhog is a larger version of Icy Blowhog's. Since this creature blows fire, Red Pikmin should be used to defeat them as they are resistant to fire. However, since the Blowhog is placed near a void, they aren't fully immune to the creature as they can be thrown to their deaths. Titan Blowhogs only appear in caves and are not found on the surface.

Behavior

Titan Blowhog's act quite similar to their smaller counterparts, the Fiery Blowhog. They will walk around a small area, noticing Pikmin and the captain when they draw near, and will then attack blowing fire out of its mouth. This fire will burn any Pikmin apart from Red Pikmin, as they are resistant to fire, but will blow them away. The Titan Blowhog shakes after every attack, throwing all Pikmin attacking it in front of it.

There is only one Titan Blowhog that natural appears in Pikmin 4. This is in the Cavern for a King located in the Primordial Thicket, the final area of the game.

Red Pikmin should be used to defeat Titan Blowhogs due to their resistance to fire, but other Pikmin can be used if care is used and you're quick to whistle any burning Pikmin. To avoid Pikmin falling to their deaths, try to steer the Blowhog to look towards the platforms the cave is made of, this will reduce the chances of Pikmin being thrown off the map. The best way to attack the Titan Blowhog is constantly throw Pikmin at its body until it throws them forward. Whistle all your Pikmin and repeat until the Blowhog is defeated.

Notes

Dalmo's Notes

Massive gouts of false blow out from that gigantic body with astonishing force--enough to make you think of a volcanic eruption. This critter exhibits the power of nature's fury! One can be truly overwhelmed by the sight of the Titan Blowhog's raging torrents of fire.

Olimar's Notes

Due to a hormone abnormality, this Fiery Blowhog specimen has grown to an irregular giant size. As a result, its mouth and the organs that regulate its fire-breathing abilities are significantly larger, so the firepower of this specimen greatly exceeds that of its normal counterpart.

The fire it produces is actually so strong that the stress it places on the creature's internal organs is magnified, thus reducing its overall life span. This specimen is also unable to reproduce.

Louie's Notes

Creature too large to easily carve. Bigger is not better in this case.
