'''Rush''' is a skill where Oatchi rushes forward. This can be used to charge at enemies or obstacles. For example, he can smash open pots and frozen objects, or ram into walls to knock down hard to reach items. It can also provide enough speed to run against the direction of [[conveyor belt]]s, or instantly burst any frozen [[hydro jellies]]. When [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] are riding Oatchi, he can also launch the Pikmin directly onto an enemy or obstacle when rushing into them.

It can be performed by holding and releasing {{button|switch|x}}, be it by being ordered by the player's character or when the player is controlling Oatchi directly. While the button is pressed, an orange ring-shaped gauge appears with Oatchi's face on it, and fills as the button is held down. An arrow also appears on the ground indicating where Oatchi will go. If the button is released after the gauge is full, the rush will start, but if released before that the process will be cancelled. Before releasing the button, the player can also press another button to cancel. While rushing, if the player is controlling Oatchi he can be slightly veered left and right. Oatchi can usually only rush for a few seconds before screeching to a halt on his own, or sooner if the player presses {{button|switch|b}} mid-rush. After rushing, the same gauge will appear with a grey ring instead, slowly depleting to indicate the cooldown between Oatchi's rushes.
