== Special Mission Ticket ==
==== St. Patrick's Day Decor Pikmin ====
Special Mission Tickets are unique items available in the [[shop]] during [[Event Challenge]]s, [[Event/Decor Pikmin events|Decor Pikmin events]], and [[Community Day]]s. When purchased from the shop, a special mission to plant 2,000 flowers of a specific color is made available. If the missions that are made available by purchasing a ticket are not completed before they expire, there is no compensation given for what was spent on the price of the ticket, and no rewards are given.
[[File:StPatricksDay2022.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Promotional image for the event.]]
A special {{w|St. Patrick's Day}} event occurred between {{date|17|March}} and {{date|20|March|2022}}. It was themed around four-leaf clovers, traditional symbols of luck.

If the ticket is purchased for a Community Day, completing the mission rewards a specific amount, color, and type of seasonal [[petal]]s. The flower type rewarded depends on what flower the Community Day is themed around. Community Day tickets can only be purchased with real money, and always cost $1.99 (or equivalent in other currencies). After being purchased, the mission can only be completed until the day after the Community Day weekend.
During the event period, players could find specially-marked Huge Seedlings in previously-unvisited areas, similar to the [[#Lunar New Year Decor Pikmin|Lunar New Year]] event. Only one specially-marked Huge Seedling could be held in seedling storage at a time. These special Pikmin had a much higher chance than normal of gaining the recently added Four-Leaf Clover [[Decor Pikmin|decor]] instead of the regular Clover decor for Park-type Decor Pikmin, with about a 1 in 2 chance.{{cite web|https://pikminbloom.com/en/news/0416/|News post|the Pikmin Bloom website|published={{date|15|March|2022}}|retrieved={{date|16|March|2022}}}}


If the ticket is purchased for a Decor Pikmin event, completing the mission rewards a colored [[Gold Seedling]] of the players choice. The type of special [[Decor Pikmin]] rewarded from the Gold Seedling depends on what Decor Pikmin type the ticket is purchased for. Event Challenge tickets always cost {{icon|Coin}} 799 coins. After being purchased, the mission has two months to be completed.

There are also Special Completion Tickets, which unlock a series of missions when purchased from the shop. The missions consist of walking a certain amount of steps, planting a certain amount of flowers, and destroying a certain amount of [[Mushroom battle|mushrooms]]. Each mission that is completed grants a Gold Seedling of a specific type of special [[Decor Pikmin]], and completing all the missions guarantees the whole set of Decor Pikmin is obtained. The ticket does not have a set price. After being purchased, the missions have two months to be completed. If any missions are not completed, the Gold Seedlings from the uncompleted missions are not rewarded.
During the event period, players could find specially-marked Huge Seedlings in previously unvisited areas, similar to the [[#St. Patrick's Day Decor Pikmin|St. Patrick's Day]] event. Only one specially-marked Huge Seedling could be held in seedling storage at a time. These special Pikmin grew into Forest-type Decor Pikmin, no matter the location type of where they were found. During the event, [[Special Slot]]s were available for 25% fewer coins in the [[shop]].
