Rompopolo, a Brute Wyvern, first appears in Chapter 2, Mission 2-1: Toward Fervent Fields, within the Oilwell Basin. Defeating it is crucial to progressing towards Azuz City. Once defeated, its entry unlocks in your Large Monster Field Guide. You can re-engage Rompopolo in the Oilwell Basin or via the "Oilwell Basin Blast" Optional Quest.
How to Beat and Capture Rompopolo in Monster Hunter Wilds

For optimal preparation, equip water-element weapons (obtained from Uth Duna in the Scarlet Forest), and gear with fire resistance (farmed from Uth Duna or Ajarakan). Consider crafting a Fire Charm I or Defense Charm I talisman. Don't forget a hearty meal to boost health and stamina!
Rompopolo Attacks and Weaknesses

Rompopolo's attacks utilize its gas-filled, saggy skin, resulting in explosive and poisonous assaults. Carry Antidotes; your Palico can also help mitigate status ailments. Key attacks to watch for include:
- Arm Swipe: A double swipe; easily dodged.
- Lunge With Arm Swipe: A charging swipe attack.
- Tail Swing: A straightforward tail attack.
- Poison Stream or Swipe: Poison gas spray or a charging swipe with poison.
- Oil Explosion: Explosions triggered in oil pools using its tail.
- Charged Oil Explosion: A larger, more damaging oil explosion later in the fight.
Should You Kill or Capture Rompopolo?

Weaken Rompopolo until your Palico notes its exhaustion. Use Shock Traps or Pitfall Traps, followed by a Tranq Bomb for capture. Killing or capturing both yield rewards; some items are exclusive to capture, others to a kill. The differences are subtle, but impactful.
