'''Mushroom battles''' are a feature of {{pb}}, unlocked at [[level]] 8. Mushrooms of various types and sizes appear around the world, and players can send groups of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to [[Combat|attack]] them. Multiple players can join a battle, and participants will receive [[Fruit (Pikmin Bloom)|fruit]] and a [[postcard]] as a reward, and a score that measures how well they did. Up to three mushroom battles can be done by a player in a day, but additional battles can be joined by spending a [[#Mushroom Recharge Ticket|Mushroom Recharge Ticket]].

'''Mushroom battles''' are a feature of {{pb}}, unlocked at [[level]] 8. Mushrooms of various colors and sizes appear around the world, and players can send groups of [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to [[Combat|attack]] them. Multiple players can join a battle, and participants will receive [[Fruit (Pikmin Bloom)|fruit]] and a [[postcard]] as a reward, and a score that measures how well they did. Up to three mushroom battles can be done by a player in a day, but additional battles can be joined by spending a [[#Mushroom Recharge Ticket|Mushroom Recharge Ticket]].


The amount of Pikmin that can be sent on a mushroom battle by a player will increase over time based on the player's [[level]], starting at 10 Pikmin and reaching a maximum of 40 Pikmin at level 20. The [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Mushroom Battles|mushroom battle selection screen]] lets the player choose which Pikmin to send and shows the strength of the squad and how long the battle will take. The higher the strength, the faster the Pikmin will be at completing the battle. Up to 5 people can battle a single mushroom at once, each sending their own groups of Pikmin, and after reaching this number, additional players can join (up to a maximum of 20 for all small, normal, and large mushrooms, and 30 for giant mushrooms) by using a Mushroom Recharge Ticket. Players can also call their [[friend]]s for help in the mushroom by using a [[Mushroom Battle Bullhorn]].

Mushrooms grow at points of interest in the real world, similar to [[Big Flower]]s. They can only be seen and interacted with when they are less than 600 meters away from the player. After the mushroom is destroyed, it grows back in the same location 5 minutes later, without any input. As of the update on {{date|13|December|2023}}, mushrooms that have not been cleared for 24 hours will automatically regrow at 18:00 UTC. Whether regrowth is automatic or following the destruction of the previous mushroom, the mushroom type that grows is randomized.

Whether regrowth is automatic or following the destruction of the previous mushroom, the mushroom type that grows is randomized.


Mushrooms come in various types that differ in size and type. The hierarchy of the sizes are small, normal, large, and giant, with each size increasing in [[health]]. The larger the mushroom, the bigger the reward for destroying it. There are 12 basic types of mushrooms – 7 regular colors, and 5 special types. Fire Mushrooms can only be fought by [[Red Pikmin]], Water Mushrooms can only be fought by [[Blue Pikmin]], Electric Mushrooms can only be fought by [[Yellow Pikmin]], Poisonous Mushrooms can only be fought by [[White Pikmin]], and Crystal Mushrooms can only be fought by [[Rock Pikmin]]. All other types can be fought by Pikmin of any type. The type of mushrooms determines the type of [[nectar]] players can get as a reward.

When a mushroom is selected, either from the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Map|map screen]] or [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Expeditions|expedition list]], the camera will focus on the mushroom, with a photograph of its corresponding real-world landmark behind it. The screen displays some basic information about the mushroom, such as its remaining [[health]], the time left until it is destroyed, and the rewards for destroying, as well as circles that can be filled with icons of the [[Mii]]s of the players who have joined the battle.

The screen displays some basic information about the mushroom, such as its remaining [[health]], the time left until it is destroyed, and the rewards for destroying, as well as circles that can be filled with icons of the [[Mii]]s of the players who have joined the battle. There is a Join button which progresses to the selection screen. The button will be grayed out if the participant limit has already been reached. If the player has run out of daily tries, a Mushroom Recharge Ticket will be displayed inside.


If the player that joined the mushroom is on the player's [[Friend#Friend list|friend list]], their icon have a green border. If the player that joined the mushroom joined from the player's [[#Mushroom Battle Bullhorn|Mushroom Battle Bullhorn]] invitation, their icon will have a pink border. Clicking on another player's Mii icon will open a menu that allows you to send a [[#Reactions|reaction]] and view their total [[#Attack power|attack power]]. If the player is on your friend list, you also have the option to send them a [[postcard]] or a [[Shop#Gift bundles|gift]]. If the player clicks on their own icon in this menu, they will be able to view their total attack power, what reactions they have received, and buttons to either edit their Mii or open their friend list.
In the selection screen, the player can manually choose which Pikmin to send, or have the game automatically select Pikmin with the Auto button. A list of all the player's Pikmin appears, and by tapping one, it can be added to or removed from the mushroom attacking group. The maximum size of the group depends on the player's [[level]]. Pikmin with an advantage against that mushroom type (see the next section) may jump in the list when selected for the battle. Selected Pikmin also appear in front of the mushroom in the camera view. Since {{date|14|December|2022}}, after selecting at least 1 Pikmin, a [[nectar]] button appears in the lower half of the screen and can be tapped to feed the selected Pikmin. The player will be taken to a separate [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Garden|garden screen]] where selected Pikmin can be fed. There is a GO button in the lower right corner; tapping it sends all the selected Pikmin to attack the mushroom. If the player has run out of daily tries, they will be asked to use a Mushroom Recharge Ticket before proceeding. Additional tickets can be purchased from this screen by tapping the "Add Tickets" button.

In the selection screen, the player can manually choose which Pikmin to send, or have the game automatically select Pikmin with the Auto button. The Auto button will always select the top 40, which will changed based on how their Pikmin list is currently sorted. By tapping a Pikmin in this list, it can be added to or removed from the group that is being sent to attack the mushroom.  
[[File:PB Small Red Mushroom Battle.gif|thumb|150px|Red Pikmin destroying one part of a small red mushroom.]]
Once the Pikmin are sent on the mushroom battle, they rush towards the mushrooms and start attacking them. Most Pikmin types latch on to a mushroom and start attacking it at a constant rate, with each attack doing some damage. [[Rock Pikmin]] instead jump towards a mushroom from a distance and roll back to jump again. From time to time, Pikmin get off the mushroom, walk back to their starting position, and walk back to the mushroom to start attacking again. Each hit decreases the health of the mushrooms, though not by a set amount; see the [[#Time|Time]] section for more details. From time to time, one of the mushrooms in the group will collapse, leaving the Pikmin attacking it to start attacking another one. The intervals at which mushrooms break depend on the number of the mushrooms in the cluster: 4 for small, 7 for normal, and 10 for large, such that mushrooms break at regular intervals. For example, in a large mushroom group, one of the mushrooms will break for each tenth of health depleted. After joining a mushroom battle, player icons can be tapped to send a reaction, chosen from four different types of reactions. A reaction can be changed at any time once sent. Mushroom battles can be left using the "Leave" button. Doing so will not give the player an extra attempt for the day.


The minimum size of this group depends on the size of the mushroom being battled, as shown in the table below.
When the health is fully depleted, the mushroom battle is cleared. The player is provided with their score, the time it took to destroy the mushrooms, and a star rating, followed by the Pikmin bringing a [[postcard]] about their battle and a small number of [[Fruit (Pikmin Bloom)|fruits]] to be given to the player. Each Pikmin that was sent on the battle also gains some [[friendship]] (though this actually happens at the start of the battle, not the end).

Prior to update 59.0, players could not leave current battles or send reactions to one other. The selection screen did not display rewards. Only up to three mushroom battles could be done in a day, as Mushroom Recharge Tickets had not yet been introduced to the game. Selected Pikmin could not be fed nectar from the selection screen.

The maximum size of the group depends on the player's [[level]], as shown in the table below.
==Attack power==
{|class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"
When the player is selecting Pikmin for the mushroom battle, a power value appears in the bottom-right of the upper display, alongside an image of two Pikmin. This shows how strong the selected squad is against that mushroom. Adding a Pikmin will increase the value by some amount. This amount depends on the [[Pikmin family#Types|type]] of Pikmin, whether it is a [[Decor Pikmin]], its [[maturity]], its [[friendship]], and the color of the mushroom being attacked.

As the requirements for each star rating are met by the squad's total attack, the display changes in design, colour and effects. While the total attack is less than the required score for 2 stars, the display is green and shows a single star between the two Pikmin icons. Once the attack total exceeds the score for 2 stars, the display changes to yellow backed by a golden glow, and two stars are shown between the Pikmin icons. When the squad's attack grows greater than the required score for 3 stars, the display changes to a light orange colour, backed by an orange glow with small orange sparks, and three stars appear between the Pikmin icons. And when the attack total overtakes the score needed for 4 stars, the display changes to a darker orange, with a vibrant blue glow backed by white sparks and multicolored fireworks, and four stars are shown between the pair of Pikmin icons.
 
Each Pikmin type has a base attack power. These attack powers are shown in the table below.

The attack power of a Pikmin originally depended on 5 variables: the [[Pikmin family#Types|type]] of Pikmin, its [[friendship]], its [[maturity]], whether it was a [[Decor Pikmin]], and the color of the mushroom being attacked. The equation below was the overall equation for calculating the power contributed by a single Pikmin; the paragraphs below explain what each variable means.

Finally, added to the total so far is a value to represent the Pikmin type's strength against the type of mushroom being fought.
{{equation|PB Challenge Power Formula.png}}


Each Pikmin type had a base attack power. [[Red Pikmin]], [[Yellow Pikmin]], and [[Blue Pikmin]] all had the standard base attack power. [[White Pikmin]] and [[Winged Pikmin]] were slightly weaker, while [[Purple Pikmin]] and [[Rock Pikmin]] were slightly stronger. The exact values used are in the table below.

A Pikmin's [[maturity]] contributed to how strong it was. Leaf Pikmin had the standard attack power, and each maturity level above that increased the power slightly. Rare flowers, such as pansies and roses, were stronger than regular flowers. Bare Pikmin, obtained by feeding them too much [[nectar]], were slightly weaker.

A Pikmin's [[friendship]] contributed to its strength. For the purposes of the formula, the value used was the number of completed hearts. The fractions of a heart between full hearts didn't matter, so a Pikmin with 1.1 hearts of friendship and a Pikmin with 1.8 hearts of friendship had the same attack power of 1. The number of full hearts ranged from 0 to 4, so a value in this range was used in the formula.
|-
 
!How attack power was calculated before {{date|14|December|2022}}
If a Pikmin is a [[Decor Pikmin]], 4 points were added to its attack power. This variable in the equation could be either 0 (for non-Decor Pikmin) or 4 (for Decor Pikmin).
|-
|
The attack power of a Pikmin originally depended on 5 variables: the [[Pikmin family#Types|type]] of Pikmin, its [[friendship]], its [[maturity]], whether it was a [[Decor Pikmin]], and the color of the mushroom being attacked. The equation below was the overall equation for calculating the power contributed by a single Pikmin; the paragraphs below explain what each variable means.


{{equation|PB Challenge Power Formula.png}}
The final variable was the type of mushroom, and this was the last step in calculating attack power. If a Pikmin was the same color as the mushroom, its attack power was multiplied by 2. In other cases, certain Pikmin types may have an advantage or disadvantage against certain mushroom types. The multipliers for each Pikmin-mushroom combination are in the table below.


Each Pikmin type had a base attack power. [[Red Pikmin]], [[Yellow Pikmin]], and [[Blue Pikmin]] all had the standard base attack power. [[White Pikmin]] and [[Winged Pikmin]] were slightly weaker, while [[Purple Pikmin]] and [[Rock Pikmin]] were slightly stronger. The exact values used are in the table below.

A Pikmin's [[maturity]] contributed to how strong it was. Leaf Pikmin had the standard attack power, and each maturity level above that increased the power slightly. Rare flowers, such as pansies and roses, were stronger than regular flowers. Bare Pikmin, obtained by feeding them too much [[nectar]], were slightly weaker. The exact values used are in the table below.

As an example, picture a standard [[Purple Pikmin]] with 2.5 hearts of friendship and a bud on its head, against a red mushroom. This gives it a base damage of 5.2, a maturity multiplier of 1.1, a friendship value of 2, a Decor bonus of 0, and a mushroom multiplier of 1.1. Putting these values in the formula gives (5.2 × 1.1 × (1 + 2/10) + 0) × 1.1, or 7.5504. The game would round this up to 8 for displaying to the player.

[[File:PB Mushroom Tickets.jpg|thumb|200px| Mushroom Recharge Tickets, as displayed separately or in a stack in the [[shop]].]]
Mushroom Recharge Tickets are an item that allow player's to join mushroom battles they wouldn't otherwise be able to join. It is a consumable item that can be bought from the [[shop]] (either individually or in stacks of 11), or obtained as rewards from [[event]]s. The player's total remaining Mushroom Recharge Tickets can be viewed on the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Expeditions|expeditions]] screen.
Mushroom Recharge Tickets are a {{w|freemium}} item that allow a player to join mushroom battles they wouldn't otherwise be able to join. After a player has joined 3 battles in a day, spending a Mushroom Recharge Ticket is required to join another one that day. If 5 players are already battling a certain mushroom, spending a Mushroom Recharge Ticket is required to join that mushroom, allowing up to a maximum total of 20 players to join the battle (30 on a Giant Mushroom). (When a ticket is used this way, it does not consume one of the player's free battle attempts).


After a player has used up all three of their free daily tries, a ticket can be used to join additional battles. To do this, the player must open the menu for the mushroom they wish to join. The join button will have an icon of a Mushroom Recharge Ticket inside it, as will the GO button. Click both the join button and then the GO button will not use the ticket, but will instead open a confirmation menu. If the player has no tickets, they can instead purchase tickets from this menu.
Mushroom Recharge Tickets may be purchased from the [[shop]] for 120 [[coin]]s individually, or 1200 [[coin]]s for a stack of 11.


If 5 players are already battling a mushroom, players can use a Mushroom Recharge Ticket to join that mushroom, which allows up to a maximum total of 20 players to join the battle. In battles against Giant Mushrooms, a maximum of 30 players can join using this method. If the ticket is used to join a mushroom with more than 5 players, it will not use one of their free daily tries.

==Mushroom Battle Bullhorn==
[[File:PB Mushroom Battle Bullhorn.png|thumb|200px|The mushroom battle bullhorn.]]
[[File:PB Mushroom Battle Bullhorn.png|thumb|200px|The mushroom battle bullhorn.]]
The Mushroom Battle Bullhorn is an item that allows players to invite their [[friend]]s to join a mushroom battle remotely. Unlike other items, this item cannot be bought from the [[shop]]. Similarly to the [[Detector]], players get one free bullhorn to use each day. On weekends when Giant Mushrooms spawn during [[Event|Event Challenge]]s, players get three free bullhorns to use both days of the weekend. The player's total remaining Mushroom Battle Bullhorns can be viewed on the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Expeditions|expeditions]] screen.
The Mushroom Battle Bullhorn allows a player to invite friends to join a mushroom battle remotely. To use this item, a player must be participating in a mushroom battle. On the detail screen of the mushroom, there will be a "Call Friends for Help" that, when tapped, will prompt the user to select up to 4 friends to join the battle. Users who receive the invite will have to spend one of their daily tries to join the battle. If they have ran out of tries or if the mushroom already has 5 participants, invitees will have to use a Mushroom Recharge Ticket.


To use a bullhorn, players must first be participating in a mushroom battle. On the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Mushroom Battles|mushroom battle selection screen]] of the mushroom, there will be a "Call Friends for Help" button that, when tapped, will prompt the player to select up to 4 of their friends to join the battle. Users who receive the invite will have to spend one of their daily tries to join the battle. If they have ran out of tries or if the mushroom already has 5 participants, invitees will have to use a [[#Mushroom Recharge Ticket|Mushroom Recharge Ticket]].
After using the Bullhorn, the user of the Bullhorn can edit their invites to add more invites (if they previously didn't fill up their Bullhorn invites) or change who they are inviting as long as the invite has not been accepted. If the player invites a friend and said friend joins the mushroom, the player can remove that friend from their Friend List which frees up a spot in the player's Bullhorn, allowing them to invite more than 4 people to a mushroom.


After using the bullhorn, the player who sent the bullhorn can edit their invites to add more invites if they previously didn't fill up their bullhorn invites, or change who they are inviting, as long as the invite has not been accepted. Once a mushroom finishes and all player's [[#Titles|titles]] appear, anyone who joined from the player's bullhorn call will have the word "Helper" next to their name. This will only appear for the player who called them to the mushroom, and will not be viewable for any other participants.
==Event mushrooms==
 
For some [[event]]s, special types of mushrooms are temporarily added.

When you first unlock mushrooms, you likely won't be able to get very high scores because of the limit on how many Pikmin you can send on them. At this stage, focus on attacking larger mushrooms as they give more rewards for low star ratings, and send Pikmin you want to increase the friendship of, since mushroom battles give a small amount of [[friendship]] to participating Pikmin.
