The Puffy Blowhog is an enemy in both Pikmin games. It is first introduced of the two airborne Blowhog species, but is much more rare than the other in the second game. Pikmin's Puffy Blowhogs are slightly larger than those in Pikmin 2; in both, it resembles the Withering Blowhog, but is larger, with purple/light blue stripes and spines on its back.

In Pikmin, this creature blows Pikmin with its breath and makes their flowers wilt. In Pikmin 2, its breath is notably stronger than that of the Withering Blowhog but weaker than that of Puffy Blowhogs in Pikmin, and it does not cause Pikmin flowers to wilt. Instead, it blows Pikmin into hazards or enemies; Purple Pikmin are immune to this, and collecting the Rush Boots makes thecaptains immune too.

In the first game they appear in The Distant Spring, usually near water and other enemies, making them more dangerous. Puffy Blowhogs are only rarely seen within a few caves in Pikmin 2, as well as the multiplayer stage Carpet Plain.
