'''''Pikmin Bloom''''' is a spin-off game in the {{ps}}, released in 2021 for iOS and Android. It is an augmented-reality location-based game, co-developed by Niantic and Nintendo, with gameplay mechanics designed to encourage walking.
{{futuregame}}
An untitled '''''Pikmin'' mobile app''' developed by Niantic and Nintendo has been announced for mobile devices, featuring augmented reality gameplay. It was announced on {{date|23|March|2021}}, and is set to release later in 2021.{{cite web|rname=nintendo_tweet}}{{cite web|rname=niantic_tweet}}

The following features of the app have been published:
''Pikmin Bloom'' is a mobile game about walking around the real world. By taking steps and playing the game in different locations, various kinds of in-game resources can be obtained, which allow incremental progress through the game. Because of this focus on moving around, the game requires the GPS in the mobile phone to be on, and it needs permission to use the phone's inbuilt step counter, either via {{w|Health (Apple)|Apple Health}}, {{w|Google Fit}}, or within the app on Android devices. The game also requires an account to play, and the account can be set up with using either a Nintendo account, a Google account, a Facebook account, a Niantic Kids account, or, on iOS devices only, an Apple account.
*The app will be an augmented reality game involving exploring the real world.{{cite web|rname=nintendo_tweet}}{{cite web|rname=nintendo_news}}
 
*It will feature gameplay activities to encourage walking.{{cite web|rname=nintendo_news}}{{cite web|rname=niantic_blog}}
One of the main things that can be done in the game is growing and raising [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Pikmin in this game start their lives as [[seedling]]s, which can be obtained in various ways. Seedlings can be placed in slots in the [[Planter Pack]], a backpack worn by the player's actar, which is represented by a [[Mii]]. After walking some number of steps (either 100, 1000, 3000, 5000, or 10000, depending on the type of seedling), the seedling will be ready to be plucked, and plucking a seedling adds a Pikmin to the player's collection. Pikmin in this game can be individually named, and the location where each Pikmin was found can be viewed in a [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Pikmin|menu]]. Only a certain number of Pikmin can be in the player's [[squad]] at a time, with the rest being on standby.
*[[Red Pikmin]], [[Yellow Pikmin]], and [[Blue Pikmin]] appear, and their [[Maturity|flowers]] can be either white, red, yellow, or blue.
 
*According to Niantic developer Tatsuo Nomura, the gameplay will be very different than that of [[bulbapedia:Pokémon GO|Pokémon GO]].{{cite web|rname=developer_tweet}}
Pikmin can do various things. They can be sent to collect items on [[expeditions]], destroy [[Mushroom challenge|mushrooms]], and deliver [[Postcard|postcards]] to [[Friend|friends]]. Pikmin in the squad can be interacted with in the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Garden|garden screen]], where they can be fed [[nectar]], blooming the [[Maturity|flower]]s on their heads. The garden screen also has an [[Pikmin Bloom interface#AR mode|augmented reality mode]], which places the Pikmin on top of real-world objects seen through the phone's camera, and allows the player to take photos. By doing things with a Pikmin, its [[friendship]] can be increased. Once it reaches a high friendship level, the Pikmin can turn into a [[Decor Pikmin]], a special status of Pikmin that wears a costume. The costume depends on where in the real world the Pikmin's seedling was found, encouraging the player to visit different kinds of locations. Alternatively, the decor may be based on an [[event]].
*Mii characters will be implemented in some capacity.{{cite web|rname=niantic_blog}}
 
Another main thing that can be done in ''Pikmin Bloom'' is gain flower-related resources. Various types of [[Fruit (Pikmin Bloom)|fruit]] appear in the game, and can be found on [[expedition]]s and also while walking around. When collected, fruits give the player some [[nectar]]. Nectar can be fed to Pikmin in the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Garden|garden screen]], which will cause their flowers to bloom; tapping the flowers will give the player [[petal]]s. Petals are expended by doing [[flower planting]], an activity that plants flowers on the map behind the player as they walk. And when flower planting is turned on, fruits are more likely to appear near the player. This loop of items that each contribute to obtaining the next one is the major part of the gameplay, and encourages the player to collect more nectar and petals, though there is a limit on how many of a resource can be held by the player at a time.
 
Being a location-based game, ''Pikmin Bloom'' has in-game objects at real-world points of interest. [[Big Flower]]s and [[Mushroom challenge|mushrooms]] are spread around the world, and can be interacted with. Locations of these are viewable on a [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Map|map]] centered around the player. This map shows some basic geography, points of interest near the player, flowers planted by players with the [[flower planting]] feature, and items obtainable through [[expedition]]s. As the player walks around, the [[Mii]] representing the player will move on the map and so will the [[squad]] of Pikmin following the Mii.
 
''Pikmin Bloom'''s overall progression is slow, with new features being unlocked over time as the player's [[level]] increases. To go up a level, a defined set of tasks has to be completed, which can include tasks like walking a certain number of steps, growing a certain number of Pikmin, or planting a certain number of flowers. Some of the features unlocked over time are [[expeditions]], [[mushroom battle]]s, the [[detector]], and new [[Pikmin family#Types|types of Pikmin]]. The game's slow pace encourages not playing it constantly, but checking in on the app every few minutes on a walk to see how tasks are going and to see what's nearby. Over time, the player can also unlock [[Badge (Pikmin Bloom)|badges]] by completing certain criteria.
 
The game has a number of features which allow multiple players to interact with each other. Flowers planted with the [[flower planting]] feature are visible to other players by default. If multiple players are planting in an area at the same time, and mutually have the "with others" switch on, they can see each others avatars walking. Players anonymously collaborate over time to bloom [[Big Flower]]s, making the game a kind of multiplayer idle game. [[Mushroom challenge|Mushrooms]] can be attacked by up to 20 people (anyone past the first 5 require the use of a mushroom recharge ticket) at once. There is a [[weekly challenge]] feature where players can collaborate to complete a certain goal together, and [[Party Walk]]s, where players can walk together with others without a specific goal to reach. Players can add other players as [[friend]]s, and send [[postcard]]s to them.
 
''Pikmin Bloom'' encourages players to look back over their day with the [[lifelog]] feature. This shows the tasks the player has done in the app over time. At the end of the day, a [[daily lookback]] cutscene will occur, which shows where the player walked that day, and allows the player to write a short journal entry. Every Sunday, there is also a [[weekly lookback]], which shows a summary of how much the player walked compared to the previous week, what places they visited, total flowers planted, and a "photo of the week", which is randomly chosen from any photos that were uploaded to the lifelog during the week.
 
The game is free to download, but contains in-app purchases in the [[shop]]. [[Coin]]s can be bought with real-world money to buy in-game items, though coins can also be obtained at a slow rate through [[flower planting]]. There are also various items that can only be bought with real-world money. Some purchases have the option to be paid with coins or real-world money.

===Pikmin===
All seven [[Pikmin family#Types|Pikmin types]] that were introduced prior to {{p4}}: ([[Red Pikmin]], [[Yellow Pikmin]], [[Blue Pikmin]], [[Purple Pikmin]], [[White Pikmin]], [[Rock Pikmin]] and [[Winged Pikmin]]) appear in ''Pikmin Bloom'', each one unlocked at different [[level]]s. There is also a large collection of Pikmin donning some decoration, called [[Decor Pikmin]].
 
===Flowers===
''Pikmin Bloom'' has several types of flowers, which appear in several different forms. The [[maturity|flowers on Pikmin heads]], [[nectar]]s, [[petal]]s, and [[Big Flower]]s all come in different varieties for the different types of flowers. The following types of flowers appear in the game:
*{{icon|White Big Flower|l=}} '''Normal''' (unnamed): The standard type of flower, resembling a ''[[Chaenostoma cordatum]]'' on Pikmin heads and a {{w|Bellis perennis|daisy}} as a Big Flower.

In May 2022, they were made into a regular type of rare flower, being obtainable normally from Big Flowers and later [[mushroom battle]]s. Comes in white, red, blue, and yellow varieties.

Some of the game's features require the player to be connected to the internet.
 
* [[Flower planting]], be it for starting, stopping, consuming a petal, or for effectively planting a flower. The timer that starts when the player begins flower planting is based on the number of petals at the start, and will always decrease. This means that the timer may go down without the petals being decreased if the player is offline, and can even reach the end without the player emptying the jar.
 
Increasing the amount of steps and having their position registered in the map does not require an internet connection.
