So, first, complete the first ending of Hero’s Hideaway and find Olimar, then complete the Shipwreck Tale quests. Once you complete all of them, you can proceed to play the trial.
The one you should finish to get the White Poison Pikmin Onion is the 5th Story: The White Key.
To successfully finish this story, you should get nine dragon jewels. You will get them as you defeat the dragons in the trial.
How to Complete 5th Story: The White Key
The objective of this chapter is to Capture the White Jewel. You will need to have Rock Pikmin and Pink Pikmin with you to do that. You will have seven minutes to complete the story.
When you first start the chapter, follow the path and eliminate the Armored Cannon Larva in front of you. Do not try to skip this step as it will keep shooting canon balls in the direction you will need to go. Leaving it might make you lose a lot of time.
Keep going forward and jump to the other side. Send your Rock Pikmin to the pink dragon jewel buried in the ground. You will see that there is two Miniature Snootwhacker in your way, defeat them, and don’t forget to collect the Pink Pikmin around it as well.
Then, send at least 7 Pink Winged Pikmin to collect the Dragon Jewel number five from the platform above. While they are carrying it, get rid of the sticky mold on their way. Then, use your other Pikmin to extend the climbing stick near the platform. The Pikmin will climb up and push the button to lower the iron fence.
Now that the iron fence is lowered, turn around and use the bouncy mushroom to get to the other side. You will see a red hanging dragon jewel on your left.
Throw Rock Pikmin on it to weigh it down.
While they are dealing with that, go back and go forward. You will see that there are some White Pikmin buried in the ground, pluck them and proceed to the left by using bouncy mushrooms once more.
There, you will see a giant Snootwhacker. You don’t actually need to get rid of it as it cannot go past the area around him. However, if you knock it down by using your Oatchi, it will drop some Rock Pikmin. So you can do that if you think it might be useful for you to get more.
Whatever you chose to do, the next step you need to follow is to go to the right and collect the Rock Pikmin from the ground. Then, go back and pass the Snootwhacker and go to the right.
You will see another dragon jewel there. Get rid of the sticky mold in front of it, collect the Pink Pikmin on your right, then send 7 Pink Pikmin to carry it.
Then, go back, jump up by using bouncy mushrooms, and throw Pink Pikmin on the yellow Dragon Jewel there. Get the hanging green dragon jewel by using your Pink Pikmin while you are there.
After that, jump up and collect your Pink Pikmin back from there.
On the right, you will see that there is another hanging dragon jewel lying there. Collect it as well. Then go down and to the right and get the black dragon jewel.
Then, if you turn back and go to the right, you will find dragon jewel number 2 there.
You will now have collected all nine Dragon Jewels and the gate will open. Go back to the point where the giant Snootwhacker is located. Go to the area where the White Poison Pikmin Onion is located and send your Pikmin to collect it.
Using Pink Pikmin to carry it will make your work a lot easier as they can fly over some of the gaps and make it faster for you to collect the treasures.
Your Pink Pikmin will carry it all the way to the ending point and the fifth story: The White Key now will be completed.
These are everything you need to know to Find The White Poison Pikmin Onion in Pikmin 4. Even though the steps are not very difficult to complete, you might need to spend some time as you will need to complete a couple of things before being able to access the Trial of the Sage Leaf.
