PlotEdit

The Rescue Corps goes to this area in search of Nelle, a Koppaite who may be able to cure Oatchi's tail. Right after landing, the player character and Oatchi see Louie and Moss with a castaway who looks like Alph from Pikmin 3. They follow Louie into a cave where he tries to turn the castaway into a leafling. The process fails and he challenges them to a Dandori Battle. Upon defeat, Louie runs off with Moss and the Rescue Corps duo saves the castaway, a different Koppaite named Yorke. In one of the area's three regular caves, the player and Oatchi also rescue Yorke's partner Don Bergman. Yorke and Don Bergman can be rescued in either order.

After Yorke and Don Bergman are reunited, Shepherd asks Don Bergman what happened to Nelle. He remembers seeing a dog-like creature drag her further into the Primordial Thicket.
