'''Blizzarding Blowhog'''s ({{j|ブリザードックリ|Burizādokkuri|Blizzard Tokkuri}}) are larger versions of [[Snowy Blowhog]]s similar to how the [[Titan Blowhog]] is a larger version of [[Fiery Blowhog]]s. Since this creature blows ice, [[Ice Pikmin]] should be used to defeat them as they are resistant to ice. However, since these Blowhogs can be placed near a void, they aren't fully immune to the creature as they can be thrown to their deaths. | |||

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

Blizzarding Blowhogs cannot directly kill Pikmin, as freezing is nonlethal. However, keep in mind that, due to the cave layout, they may be able to buck them off the map and into the [[pit]], which ''will'' kill them. Take care to ensure that the Blowhog is facing in-bounds when fighting it, and be prepared to disengage if it begins facing out of bounds. Otherwise, Blizzarding Blowhogs can be treated similarly to all other Blowhogs: Throw Pikmin onto its body (or Rush a squad into it while riding [[Oatchi]]), and whistle them back before it can buck them off, repeating the process until the Blowhog dies. | Blizzarding Blowhogs cannot directly kill Pikmin, as freezing is nonlethal.

As with all Blowhogs, throwing [[Purple Pikmin]] onto its body is also a very effective strategy that can very quickly kill it, due to their extreme stomping power. | |||
