Rompopolo makes its first appearance in Chapter 2 during Mission 2-1: Toward Fervent Fields. You'll encounter it in the Oilwell Basin region on your way to Azuz City, and defeating it is crucial to progress. Once you've defeated Rompopolo at least once, its entry will be added to your Large Monster Field Guide. You can then engage it repeatedly by exploring the Oilwell Basin or by starting the "Oilwell Basin Blast" Optional Quest from your Tent.

To prepare for your battle against Rompopolo, arm your hunter with water-element weapons, obtainable from Uth Duna in the Scarlet Forest. Additionally, equip gear with fire resistance, which can be farmed from Uth Duna or Ajarakan later in the chapter. Consider crafting a fire-resistance Talisman like the Fire Charm I or a Defense Charm I for added protection. Before the fight, boost your health and stamina by grilling a meal.

Rompopolo is distinguished by its unique set of gas-related attacks, thanks to its saggy, gas-filled skin. Be prepared for potential poison status ailments and carry Antidotes. Your Palico can also help cleanse these ailments.
Key attacks to watch out for include:

Similar to previous *Monster Hunter* games, you have the option to either kill or capture Rompopolo. To capture it, weaken the beast until your Palico notes it looks "tired." Then, use Shock Traps or Pitfall Traps to ensnare it, followed by at least one Tranq Bomb to knock it out and complete the capture.
Both methods yield different rewards, with some items exclusive to capture or kill. Below are the potential drops from Rompopolo:
