The '''Burrow of Beginnings''' is the first [[cave]] in {{p4}}, and the only one in the [[Rescue Command Post]]. It has a single sublevel with no wild [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or [[treasure]]s, and very few enemies and obstacles. It is first explored with [[Collin]] and is where [[Shepherd]] is rescued. It has an exit leading to the base near the [[S.S. Shepherd]].

==How to reach==
During the beginning tutorial, after the [[Pikmin 4 player character|player avatar]] finds [[Collin]] and [[Oatchi]], you will be leaded to a high ledge you cannot progress over. Behind it is a cave entrance covered in dirt, which must be cleared away using Oatchi. From there, you can proceed into the cave.

Because the cave entrance and exit are both are high ledges, the cave only be re-entered once Oatchi has learned to jump. However, the Bulborb Larvae will not respawn and there is no real reason to go through the cave a second time.

==Sublevel 1==
* '''Enemies''':
** {{icon|Bulborb Larva|v=P4|y}} &times; 3 (doesn’t respawn after first defeat)
* '''Obstacles''':
** {{icon|Breakable pot|v=P4|y}} &times; 5
* '''Others''':
** {{icon|Castaway|v=P4}} [[Erma Shepherd]]

==Trivia==
* Unlike many others, this cave does not have any notes from [[Olimar]] or [[Louie]]. This likely implies neither of them explored the cave; indeed, Olimar's first visit to the Rescue Command Post is in the ending of his [[Olimar's Shipwreck Tale|Shipwreck Tale]], where his life support fails in the planet's atmosphere and he crash-lands once again before becoming a [[leafling]].
* Due to being the tutorial cave, and before obtaining Pikmin, this cave is the only cave in ''Pikmin 4'' that does not contain any wild Pikmin.
* The cave suggests [[Red Pikmin]] upon re-entry, despite no Pikmin being needed to clear it the first time.
* This is the only normal cave which does not respawn enemies upon re-entering.
