'''Watery Blowhogs''' ({{j|ミズブタ|Mizu Buta|Water Pig}}) are enemies in {{p2}}, {{p3}}, and {{p4}}. Watery Blowhogs are almost identical to [[Fiery Blowhog]]s, except that their snouts are colored blue. Instead of fire, they spit out a water-like liquid that gets stuck on the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]'s heads, excluding [[Blue Pikmin]] and [[Bulbmin]]. Leaders will be pummeled to the ground if they are caught in the blast, making this one of the few times where leaders can be stunned by water. [[Purple Pikmin]] may work as well as long they are [[throw]]n (preferably on top of the Blowhog, so it gets stunned). Blowing the whistle in the area the water is spewed can also cancel out the attack almost instantly and save the Pikmin caught in the spray instantly. | |||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
*By standing | *By standing really close to a Watery Blowhog in {{p2}}, it will rotate to face the leader, but will never actually attack. Instead, it will endlessly repeat its rotation animation. This happens with the [[Fiery Blowhog]] as well, and interestingly, the Watery Blowhog near the entrance to the [[Subterranean Complex]] follows through this animation faster than normal. | ||
*The Prima Guide for ''Pikmin 3'' and the Nintendo Player's Guide for ''Pikmin 2'' state that the Watery Blowhog spits water. This contradicts the Piklopedia, which states that it shoots a flammable liquid, but is incapable of igniting it. | *The Prima Guide for ''Pikmin 3'' and the Nintendo Player's Guide for ''Pikmin 2'' state that the Watery Blowhog spits water.

However, it might not be an actual Watery Blowhog because every [[enemy]] at the Formidable Oak turns into plasm when defeated, implying that it was created by the [[Plasm Wraith]]. This can also be applied to the [[Shearwig]]'s appearance in ''Pikmin 3''{{'s}} story mode. | ||
