{{for|the ship|S.S. Shepherd}}

'''Erma Shepherd''', usually simply called '''Shepherd''', is the captain of the [[Rescue Corps]] in {{p4}}. She is [[Oatchi]]'s trainer and leads the group's mission. She is the second member of the Rescue Corps found in the tutorial, being found holding onto a pole in the [[Burrow of Beginnings]] surrounded by 3 [[Bulborb Larva]]e; defeating the Bulborb Larvae will let Shepherd come down from the pole to join the [[rookie Rescue Officer]] and [[Collin]]. In the [[Rescue Command Post]], talking to Shepherd lets the player spend Oatchi's [[Oatchi#Skills|Pup Drive]] to train Oatchi and unlock new abilities. Although Shepherd is not playable in the main story, the first player can choose to play as her in [[Dandori Battle#Dandori Battle mode|Dandori Battle mode]]; the same applies to Collin.

Shepherd has a egg-shaped head, long ears, dark skin, and blonde hair styled in a bun with a long curl on the side. She also wears a bandana that matches her spacesuit color and has blue grease paint under her eyes.

She is the 99th {{color|2=#fab400|captain}} in a family that has been running a space Rescue Corps for generations. She is also a {{color|2=#fab400|top Rescue Pup trainer}}, but is not good with animals other than dogs.

 

 

 

Fitting with the dog theme of ''Pikmin 4''{{'s}} character names, Shepherd's name comes from the {{w|German Shepherd}} breed of dog. Additionally, a "shepherd" can refer to someone who guides or watches over a group of people, alluding to Shepherd's role as captain of the Rescue Corps.
