Even though you can find Rock Pikmin quite early, you have to walk quite a long way before you find their Onion. To be more precise, you will need to get to Giant’s Heart. This area is one of the hardest in the game so you need to be careful:

Head south of the map and find the gate.
Destroy them using Bomb Rocks.
Then, you must defeat the Sovereign Bulblax blocking your path.
