The '''Puffy Blowhog''' ({{j|フーセンドックリ|Fūsen Dokkuri|Balloon Tokkuri}}) is an [[enemy]] in all four main [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]]. It floats gently in the air, and when it finds [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[leader]]s, it blows them away with a strong gust of air. Before blowing air, it first needs to stop and inhale. | The '''Puffy Blowhog''' ({{j|フーセンドックリ|Fūsen Dokkuri|Balloon Tokkuri}}) is an [[enemy]] in all four main [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' games]].

In | In ''Pikmin'', this creature knocks down [[Olimar]] and blows away Pikmin, causing their flowers to wilt. In ''Pikmin 2'', withering breath is instead caused by the [[Withering Blowhog]], and the Puffy Blowhog instead simply knocks them back, and for a shorter distance. [[Purple Pikmin]] are immune to the wind, and collecting the [[Rush Boots]] makes the [[leader]]s immune too. Regardless of game, their strong gusts can knock Pikmin into hazards or other dangers. | ||
It floats high in the air, but low enough for [[throw]]n Pikmin to reach, however. It can shake Pikmin off, though if overwhelmed and weighed down, it'll be brought to the ground, and be vulnerable to attacks for a few seconds. It will then attempt to go back into the air, but if it has too many Pikmin on it, will not succeed. In | It floats high in the air, but low enough for [[throw]]n Pikmin to reach, however.

It will then attempt to go back into the air, but if it has too many Pikmin on it, will not succeed. In ''Pikmin 3'', it can instantly inflate when it crashes on the ground, throwing off latched Pikmin. It also drops a corpse in ''Pikmin 3'', after it deflates itself from defeat. | ||

Puffy Blowhogs are only rarely seen within a few [[cave]]s in ''Pikmin 2'', as well as the multiplayer stage [[Carpet Plain]]. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', the Puffy Blowhog only appears in Story Mode once in the [[Twilight River]] area, as well as in the [[Battle Enemies!]] version of [[Fortress of Festivity]]. | ||
