Editing Event/Event Challenges

'''Event Challenges''' are a type of month-long event in {{pb}} that are able to be participated in after reaching [[Level#Pikmin Bloom|Level 5]]. The current Event Challenge and the player's current progress on the missions can be viewed by clicking on the "Event Challenge" tab. This tab displays a green tile featuring a big flower at its center, with a circular track arranged around the big flower, which is split into four quarters. Beneath this, missions are shown with various requirements for completion; steps taken, flowers planted, Pikmin grown, petals plucked, expeditions done, or mushrooms destroyed. The player's [[Mii]] is displayed marching upon the track, and will advance as missions are completed, leaving a trail of flowers behind them. As each of the four quarters are completed, new missions will be presented, and the [[Big Flower]] in the center will grow through its phases; from a few tiny shoots at first, to a sprout, then a bud, and finally into a bloomed Big Flower once the challenge stage is completed. Upon completion, the challenge stage will advance, awarding the player a [[Gold Seedling]] for the event's [[Decor Pikmin#Special Decor Pikmin|Special Decor Pikmin]] and some seasonal [[Nectar#In Pikmin Bloom|nectar]], and placing them upon a new track with a new Big Flower to grow. There are four challenge stages in total, each with their own missions, and each event's missions vary slightly. Upon completing the fourth stage, the player will reset to the first stage and restart the process.

If a battle against an [[Mushroom battle#event mushrooms|Event Mushroom]] finishes during an event that is different than the one it was started in (for example, a battle against a Bizarre mushroom from the [[#2024 Ice Cream Event|2024 Ice Cream Event]] that was started {{date|31|August|2024}} finishing on {{date|1|September|2024}} during the [[#2024 Paint Event|2024 Paint Event]]), no Mystery Box will be rewarded.

During the [[Event/Decor Pikmin events#2023 Easter Event|2023 Easter Event]] and [[#2024 Spring Festival Event|2024 Spring Festival Event]], a unique type of Mystery Box was available to earn. These Mystery Boxes were not boxes, and instead took on the design of painted eggs, cracking open to reveal their reward. "Easter Eggs" from the 2023 Easter Event were rewarded from any mushroom battles, and "Spring Festival Eggs" from the 2024 Spring Festival Event were rewarded from [[Mushroom battle#Spring Festival mushrooms|Spring Festival Mushrooms]]. Instead of a 2 tiered rarity system, both events had a unique reward pool for each Egg design, which can be seen in the table below. Each reward that is listed had a chance to be rewarded from the Egg.
