How to unlock the Rock Onion in Pikmin 4

To find the Rock Onion in Pikmin 4, you’ll need to have seen the first ending to the game and unlocked the fifth area, Giant’s Hearth.

The Onion is located at the south of the map, behind a wall that will require three Bomb Rocks to destroy. You’ll also need to have cleared the burnable obstacles in order to reach this area.

Here you’ll find the Rock Onion guarded by a Sovereign Bulblax, one of the most tricky boss enemies in the game. We recommend bringing plenty of Ice Pikmin to prevent it from using its powerful moves.

Once defeated, you’ll find the Rock Onion behind the Bublax. Return it to your ship and you’ll be able to grow Rock Pikmin!
