Pikmin visibly gain friendship after being fed nectar, after their expedition reward has been collected, and after the score of a mushroom battle is displayed; this is shown by a heart briefly appearing above the Pikmin's head. If friendship gain is enough to fill the current heart, the heart will persist for longer and expand with a special sound effect. | Pikmin visibly gain friendship after being fed nectar, if they immediately return to the active squad after their expedition reward has been collected, and after the score of a mushroom battle is displayed; this is shown by a heart briefly appearing above the Pikmin's head. Note that Pikmin returning to standby after an expedition will still gain friendship, even if the heart animation doesn't occur.

The most nectar-efficient way to do this strategy is to feed a Pikmin 5 nectar in a row, making sure the first is not white nectar if the Pikmin starts with a leaf (this would still give 1 point of friendship, but would require feeding 6 nectar in a row instead of 5), and also ensuring the final flower is left unplucked. After this fifth feeding is complete, waiting two hours will cause the "Petals Plucked" count to reset. Plucking the fifth flower from the previous feeding after this reset occurs will take the current count up to 1/6. This reduces the number of feedings required to again achieve the 10 point bonus for feeding after 4/6 petals plucked. | The most nectar-efficient way to do this strategy is to feed a Pikmin 5 nectar in a row, making sure the first is not white nectar if the Pikmin starts with a leaf (this would still give 1 point of friendship, but would require feeding 6 nectar in a row instead of 5), and also ensuring the final flower is left unplucked.

The most time-efficient way to do this strategy is to feed a Pikmin 6 nectar in a row | The most time-efficient way to do this strategy is to feed a Pikmin 6 nectar in a row, pluck the 6th, and leave the Pikmin with a bare stalk. If you walk with that Pikmin about 1800 steps, they will regrow a leaf due to [[Maturity#Automatic_maturity_changes|automatic maturity changes]]. If you walk 2400 more steps with a leaf Pikmin, it will grow a bud again (not necessary for this strategy, but doubles the petals gained from the first nectar fed). This allows you to repeat the feeding process without waiting two hours. Note that this strategy cannot be done between 9:00pm and 4:00am local time due to automatic maturity changes ceasing overnight. | ||
