The '''Bogswallow''' ({{j|ヌマススリ|Numa Susuri|Swamp Sipper}}) is an enemy in {{p4}}. It hides imperceptibly within pits of [[mud]], emerging when prey is nearby to inhale them. [[Oatchi]] is too heavy to be sucked in, and the player may be swallowed if they get too close.

The Bogswallow hides under the mud until a captain, Oatchi, or the Pikmin comes close to the mud puddle or goes into the mud. It then comes out of the ground and starts vacuuming Pikmin. Once it has vacuumed a number of Pikmin, or if it vacuums for too long, it swallows whatever Pikmin it managed to vacuum and begins vacuuming again, or hides back under the mud if the Pikmin are out of range. If the Pikmin are too far out of range to begin with, they will just hide back under the mud.

Once it has vacuumed a number of Pikmin, if it vacuums for too long, or if it vacuums an item like a bomb rock; it swallows whatever Pikmin or item it managed to vacuum and begins vacuuming again, or hides back under the mud if the Pikmin are out of range. If the Pikmin are too far out of range to begin with, they will just hide back under the mud. When it is dead it's body floats a little letting winged pikmin carry it

The Bogswallow's colors consist of a mix of orange and yellow, and brown. It has a large mouth with puckered red lips, similar to the Beetle Cannon Larvae. Its body appears to be segmented, like the Emperor Bulblax. Its fins are akin to the Pricklepuff. Behind its mouth are six green eyes, and when killed, it is shown to have a spiked tail.
