There were some complications with the first mission. Initially it was to walk 10,000 steps, but no steps were counting towards it. After a few hours, it was changed to "Plant 1,000 white flowers" for people who hadn't opened the app yet, and a few hours later, people who had started the mission when it wasn't working had it automatically completed even if they hadn't walked 10,000 steps yet.{{cite web|https://twitter.com/NianticHelp/status/1566570076710526976|Tweet by Niantic Support|Twitter}}{{cite web|https://twitter.com/NianticHelp/status/1566599189596889089|Tweet by Niantic Support|Twitter}}{{cite web|https://twitter.com/NianticHelp/status/1566692198816665602|Tweet by Niantic Support|Twitter}} | |||
To note is that missions referring to a specific color of flowers actually counted all flower types of that color, not just the basic type. For example, planting white spider lily flowers or white rose flowers would count towards missions requiring the planting of white flowers. | |||

A special event themed around {{w|Halloween}} was held from {{date|14|October}} to {{date|31|October|2022}}. This event added the Jack-o'-Lantern type of [[Decor Pikmin#Jack-o'-Lantern|Decor Pikmin]], which has 7 varieties, one for each type of Pikmin. Pikmin with these costumes were grown from [[Gold Seedling|Gold Seedling]].{{cite web|https://pikminbloom.com/news/october22-halloween/|News post|the Pikmin Bloom website|published={{date|13|October|2022}}|retrieved={{date|14|October|2022}}}} | |||
The event was divided into 2 parts. The first part started on {{date|14|October}}, and the second part on {{date|24|October}}. In the first part: | |||
*The main way to get Jack-o'-Lantern Decor Pikmin was by completing missions. There were a total of 20 missions, each requiring some task (usually [[flower planting]]) to complete, and each one could be unlocked by completing the previous one. | |||
*Gold Seedlings provided by these missions could grow into Purple, White, Rock, or Winged Pikmin wearing Jack-o'-lantern Decor. | |||
*The [[weekly challenge]] starting in this period also provided Gold Seedlings when completed, and these could grow into the same types of Pikmin. | |||
*Halloween-themed [[Mii]] costumes were added to the [[shop]] at the start of the event, and were removed at the end of the event. | |||
*All [[postcard]]s obtained during the event featured one of 3 special background designs. | |||
In the second part: | |||
*All [[Mushroom battle|mushrooms]] were turned into Halloween-themed mushrooms. These were orange with purple spots, came in large size only, and Jack-o'-Lantern Decor Pikmin are especially strong against them. | |||
*A new set of missions was introduced, themed around destroying these mushrooms, and completing each mission gave a Gold Seedling that could grow into a Red, Yellow, or Blue Pikmin wearing Jack-o'-Lantern Decor. | |||
*These missions could be attempted alongside the missions from the first part. | |||
*The two [[weekly challenge]]s starting in this period also provided Gold Seedlings when completed, and these could grow any of the 7 types of Jack-o'-Lantern Decor Pikmin. | |||

In Japan, players did not receive event missions. Instead, there were [[Special Spot]]s at Lawsons locations which rewarded a 1st Anniversary Snack Huge Seedling. This was due to a promotion at Lawsons location where people could purchase Pikmin themed smoothies, some Pikmin themed merchandise, and participate in the Pikmin Ichiban Kuji.{{cite web|https://pikminbloom.com/ja/news/november22-1stanniversary/|News Post| | |||

*[[Big Flower]]s bloomed into special flowers from past Community Days between [[Event#December 2021 Community Day|December 2021]] and [[Event#October 2022 Community Day|October 2022]], and only for six hours. Other players who planted flowers in the Big Flower's radius during the 6-hour blooming period would also receive a [[Fruit (Pikmin Bloom)|fruit]] from the Big Flower. The flower types that could be bloomed changed in the middle of each day. | |||
**The available flowers alternated between cherry blossoms, tulips, roses, sunflowers, lilies, and hydrangeas for 24 hours, then spider lilies, cosmoses, poinsettias, camellias, and plum blossoms for 24 hours.{{cite web|https://twitter.com/PikminBloom/status/1588365424923537413|Tweet by Pikmin Bloom|Twitter|published={{date|4|November|2022}}|retrieved={{date|8|November|2022}}}} | |||

*It was possible to obtain Community Day [[Badge (Pikmin Bloom)|badges]] that the player did not previously obtain. To do this, 3,000 flowers of the featured Community Day had to be planted. These missions appeared in the challenge list above the missions from the 1st Anniversary event. | |||
For the Community Day, features included: | |||
*This community day took place over 2 days. Players achieving the 10,000 step goal on the two days combined (the counter does not reset between the days, so walking 5,000 steps on each day would still reach the goal) were awarded a special 1st Anniversary badge. | |||
*Seedlings in the [[Planter Pack]] grew at 1.5 times the usual speed. This effect was stackable with the [[flower planting]] multiplier. | |||

[[File:St Patrick's 2023 Promotional Image.png|thumb|left|300px|Promotional image for the event.]] | |||
An event celebrating {{w|St. Patrick's Day}} was held from {{date|1|March}} to {{date|31|March|2023}}.{{cite web|https://pikminbloom.com/en/news/march23-stpatricksday/|News post|the Pikmin Bloom website|published={{date|25|February|2023}}|retrieved={{date|27|February|2023}}}} The event was divided into two parts; the first part started on {{date|1|March}}, and the second part on {{date|17|March}}. | |||
In the first part: | |||
*A set of limited-time missions were available. Clearing each one rewarded the player with a [[Gold Seedling]] with "Clover" or "Four-Leaf Clover" Decor. These Gold Seedlings could grow into any color of Pikmin. | |||
*Every third Gold Seedling obtained from this set of missions was guaranteed to be a "Four-Leaf Clover" Decor Pikmin. | |||
*Gold Seedlings could also be unlocked by clearing a [[weekly challenge]] between {{date|6|March}} and {{date|2|April}}, and could grow into any color of Pikmin with "Clover" or "Four-Leaf Clover" Decor. | |||
*St. Patrick's-themed [[Mii]] apparel was added to the [[shop]] at the start of the event and removed at the end of the event. | |||

In the second part: | |||
*[[Mushroom battle#Green mushrooms|Green mushrooms]] were added. These were green with white spots and only appeared normal-sized. Only "Clover" Decor Pikmin could be used to attack these mushrooms, and "Four-Leaf Clover" Decor Pikmin had a higher attack power than standard "Clover" Decor Pikmin. All mushrooms were converted to these mushrooms at the start of the event, and throughout the event, after a mushroom respawned it would usually become a green mushroom, with a small chance of becoming another type of mushroom. At the end of the event, all green mushrooms were converted back to other types of mushrooms. | |||
*A new set of limited-time missions were introduced with a focus on destroying green mushrooms. Completing each mission gives a Gold Seedling for any color of Pikmin with "Clover" or "Four-Leaf Clover" Decor. | |||
*Every third Gold Seedling obtained from this set of missions was guaranteed to be a "Four-Leaf Clover" Decor Pikmin. | |||
*These missions could be attempted alongside the limited-time missions in the first part. | |||

The event was divided into two parts; the first part started on {{date|1|April}}, and the second part on {{date|17|April}}. | |||
In the first part: | |||
*A set of limited-time missions were available. Clearing each one unlocked a [[Gold Seedling]] with "Easter Egg" Decor. These Gold Seedlings could grow into Purple, White, Rock and Winged Pikmin. | |||
*Completing all 25 missions would guarantee at least one "Easter Egg" Decor Pikmin of the four available colors. | |||
*Easter-themed [[Mii]] apparel was added to the [[shop]] at the start of the event, and removed at the end of the event. | |||
*All [[postcard]]s obtained during the event feature a special Easter themed background and stamp design. | |||
In the second part: | |||
*A new set of limited-time missions were introduced focusing on destroying mushrooms. Completing each mission rewarded a Gold Seedling for a Red, Yellow or Blue Pikmin with "Easter Egg" Decor. | |||
*Completing all 7 missions would guarantee at least one "Easter Egg" Decor Pikmin of the three available colors. | |||
*These missions could be attempted alongside the limited-time missions in the first part. | |||
*Defeating a mushroom would grant the player an {{w|Easter egg}} as a bonus reward. These eggs were opened on the main menu after the battle results screen, and gave some items to the player. The rewards were random and not based on the star rating. | |||
**Approximately 60% of the time, the player would get an egg with blue, purple, and pink zig-zag patterns, with 3 blue dots. These give small amounts of nectar, either 5 nectar of a regular type (white, red, yellow, or blue) or 2 nectar of a rare type (white tulip, red tulip, yellow tulip, blue tulip, or baby blue eyes). These rewards still applied when the player had the maximum amount of nectar of that type. | |||
**Approximately 25% of the time, the player would get a beige egg with flower symbols on it. These give large amounts of nectar, either 50 nectar of a regular type (white, red, yellow, or blue) or 20 nectar of a rare type (white tulip, red tulip, yellow tulip, blue tulip, or baby blue eyes). These rewards would not apply if the player had the maximum amount of nectar of that type. | |||
**Approximately 15% of the time, the player would get an egg with a diamond pattern, with half of the diamonds being gold. These can give one of four things: a Huge Seedling that will grow into a Red, Yellow, or Blue Decor Pikmin with "Easter Egg" decor, a Gold Seedling that can grow into the same types, a [[mushroom recharge ticket]], or a [[flower planting accelerator]]. | |||
*Players could also obtain a Gold Seedling by inviting a new player to start playing with a personal referral code between {{date|17|April}} and {{date|30|April}}. These Gold Seedlings grew into any color of Pikmin with "Easter Egg" Decor. | |||

Starting from {{date|8|May|2023}} a new system for events was established, and the events tab was replaced by the "event challenge" tab. This tab displays a green tile featuring a big flower at its centre, with a circular track arranged around the big flower, which is split into four sections. Beneath this, missions are shown with various requirements for completion; steps taken, flowers planted, Pikmin grown, petals plucked 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 sections is completed new missions will be presented, and the big flower in the centre 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 of the month's limited-time decor, 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. Upon completing the fourth stage the player will reset to the first stage and begin the process anew. | |||

[[File:PB Event Challenge Roulette Before and After.png|thumb|left|250px|The roulette screen of the event challenge tab, both before and after spinning the roulette.]] | |||
When a mission is completed, tapping its entry will bring the player to a roulette screen displaying six items, with one of the player's Pikmin beneath. These items range from various kinds of regular and rare nectar types to a Gold Seedling. Tapping will cause the item roulette to begin revolving, and tapping again will cause the roulette to slow, stopping as the Pikmin jumps and taps the winning block, with the Pikmin waving happily as the prize is displayed. If the player does not tap the second time, this process will eventually conclude on its own. The timing or absence of a tap does not affect the outcome, as each prize is predetermined. {{cite web|https://niantic.helpshift.com/hc/en/23-pikmin-bloom/faq/3968-event-challenges/|Help article|the Pikmin Bloom website|published={{date|8|May|2023}}|retrieved={{date|12|May|2023}}}} | |||
New mii clothing was added, Graffiti Jackets and matching Sneakers. Graffiti Jackets were a permanent addition whilst the Sneakers were available from {{date|28|May}} to {{date|2|June|2023}}, and included Special Missions that rewarded the matching Sneaker Decor Pikmin which needed to be completed by {{date|31|July|2023}}. | |||
From {{date|8|May|2023}} through until after {{date|31|May|2023}}, gold seedlings from event challenges and referral codes reward players with Sneaker Keychain decor Pikmin. During this period these decor Pikmin are stronger when battling mushrooms, gaining an additional 20 points of strength. | |||
