Editing Seedling

{{game icons|pb=y}}
'''Seedlings''' are items in {{pb}} that grow into [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. They are mainly found on [[expedition]]s, but some are gifted to the player by the game for [[Level|leveling up]]. (Early in the game's life, Pikmin could very rarely pick them up as the player walked around, similarly to how Pikmin pick up [[Fruit (Pikmin Bloom)|small fruits]].) Once found, they can be put into a slot in the [[Planter Pack]], where they will start growing. After walking a certain number of steps with the seedling in a slot, it can be [[pluck]]ed, which will add one new Pikmin into the player's collection. A player can store up to 30 seedlings, though this limit can be raised through [[Shop|in-app purchases]]. It is possible to get rid of seedlings without growing them by pressing the "Recycle" button while viewing a seedling's information page.

==Types==
There are different types of seedlings, corresponding to the different types of Pikmin, with different numbers of steps required to grow them into a Pikmin.

Golden Seedlings were added on {{date|18|July|2022}} for an [[event]], and can only be obtained in specific circumstances unlike the other seedling types.

==Lifelog-paired seedlings==
After viewing the [[daily lookback]], if the player gives the app the necessary permissions and saves a photo, a special expedition to the location they took the photo in might appear. The seedling will be "paired" to that photo/lifelog entry, so the player will always be able to view the lifelog photo on that seedling. After plucking said seedling, the [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] will be paired too and have the same photo. The player can view the photo under its location details and right above the flower type.

==Trivia==
*Except for the huge seedling, the coloration of seedling pots and the markings on them correspond respectively to the skin color and eye color of the Pikmin they yield.
*The markings on the seedling pots look vaguely similar to those of the [[Onion]]s in {{p}} and {{p2}}, especially the huge seedling's pot.
