You only get one Palico but during hunts/investigations etc your palico can sometimes recruit additional temporary palico during that hunt/investigation.

You get one adorable ball of fluff and happiness. It will love you and you will love it or else.

You get one palico, you don't buy them they are your bestie. You don't buy friends!

You can customize what weapons and armor they have, effectively changing the role they play in your group. You can have them use a plunderblade that steals materials, or have them set traps for your, or heal you and all that good stuff.

As someone mentioned as you do side quests the palicos can tame smaller monsters and bring them into battle. They also can learn to socialize with Palico tribes and recruit them to help during a mission. (so even while in SP, you can have a party of 4 total for a duration)

Getting the additonal weapons from the Palico tribes, learning how to tame monsters for each map and recruiting tribe members for temp support are key to your Palico enhancements.

Only one, but you can change its tools freely. If you want more followers you can make your palico tame mobs in the map to become the second NPC, which only lasts during the mission.
