The '''Rescue Command Post''' ({{j|レスキューキャンプ|Resukyū Kyanpu|Rescue Camp}}) is the main hub [[area]] in {{p4}}. It is a small tutorial area, unlocked from the start of the game.

== Plot ==
This area is first landed in at the beginning of the game. The player finds [[Oatchi]] and uproots a potted plant to rescue [[Collin]]. The group then tries to navigate to the S.S. Shepherd in the distance, discover the [[Burrow of Beginnings]], and find [[Shepherd]] under attack by some [[Bulborb Larva]] inside. After rescuing her, they exit the cave to reach the damaged S.S. Shepherd, and find that {{sparklium|p4|300}} must be gathered to restart the ship. After discovering the [[Red Onion]] and collecting various treasures, the S.S. Shepherd gains enough energy to enable its radar, which unlocks the [[Sun-Speckled Terrace]].

From here, the area serves as a hub at the start of each day, where the player can talk to rescued [[castaway]]s to use features such as the [[Piklopedia (Pikmin 4)|Piklopedia]], [[Treasure Catalog]], accept Side Missions, train Oatchi, buy items and gear from [[Gear (Pikmin 4)|the Lab]], and choose an area to explore. No time passes in this location.

The area expands as more castaways are found, revealing the nearby crash site of the [[S.S. Dolphin]].

{{guide}}
Before the area becomes the main hub, you have to go through an opening tutorial when you first arrive in this area. First, you'll need to go forward and meet [[Oatchi]], then set him to work on pulling the giant plant stem to open the way forward. Continue along the path until you find the buried cave entrance of the [[Burrow of Beginnings]]. Tell Oatchi to dig and, once it's been uncovered, enter it. Continue forward and you will find [[Shepherd]] surrounded by [[Bulborb Larva]]e. Attack them and once they're defeated, and Shepherd saved, break the nearby vases and go through the cave until you reach the escape wind exhaust. Once outside, go to the S.S. Shepherd. You will be tasked with finding and collecting [[treasure]]s. You can safely look for them without the worry of enemies or the day timer. The first thing you should do is go to the other side of the area where you'll find the buried [[Red Onion]]. Tell Oatchi to retrieve it, and once the Onion has settled and you discovered the first [[Red Pikmin]], start collecting [[pellet]]s and grow more Pikmin to collect the treasures. The [[Noble Bident]] is semi-buried right next to the Onion and Pellet Posies. The [[Path Creator]] is hidden behind the S.S. Shepherd. The [[Stone of Advancement]] is on top of the blue pot; to get it down, [[rush]] at the pot with Oatchi. Once you collect all three in the area, the first day will end and the area will become the main hub area.

You will start at the Rescue Command Post in the beginning of each subsequent day. You speak to [[Collin]] to be able to explore another area. Alternatively, you can speak with the other rescued castaways to get missions from them, or you can grow extra Pikmin with the six [[Pellet Posies]] that grow back every [[day]], or even wait for them to mature.
