The Captain's Signal Walkthrough

Objectives List

1: Break the Glass Wall

First break the glass wall located North of the landing site. Upon breaking the wall, there will be a detection on the radar, allowing you to confirm the signal on the GPAD.

2: Obtain the Exploration Note and Defeat the Fiery Blowhog

Right after breaking the wall, the Go Here exploration note is obtained. Once learning Go Here, you can change to different locations on the radar, allowing you to manage your workflow and increase your productivity greatly.

After obtaining the exploration note, defeat the two Fiery Blowhogs behind it. Throwing the Red Pikmin can make work of them without taking any fire damage.

3: Throw your Ally and Pikmin Over

After defeating the Fiery Blowhogs, head to the right of the bridge in order to reach the other side. You can complete the bridge by throwing Brittany and some Pikmin to the other side. While Brittany is on the other side, set your Go Here function to the landing site and regroup with the nearby Pikmin before returning to the bridge in order to progress more efficiently.

4: Gather the Pieces of Rubble and Finish the Bridge

Once thrown to the other side, switch to Brittany and throw the Rock Pikmin to break the crystal. Use the remaining Red Pikmin to start carrying the bridge pieces. Once the bridge is complete Alph can cross over, allowing everyone to work together again.

5: Break the Dirt Wall and Obtain the Exploration Note

After completing the bridge, destroy the dirt wall on the other side and continue forward. If you continue on the path you will obtain an exploration note.
