Flower Card Decor missions

1. Plant 1,000 white flowers
2. Pluck 2 seedlings
3. Defeat 3 mushrooms
4. Plant 5,000 white flowers
5. Walk 15,000 steps
6. Pluck 3 seedlings
7. Defeat 1 red mushroom
8. Plant 5,000 red flowers
9. Walk 20,000 steps

19. Defeat 3 mushrooms
20. Plant 10,000 flowers

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.

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.

Sneaker Keychain Decor Pikmin

Promotional art for the event.

Starting from May 8^th, 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 golden 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.

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 golden 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.

From May 8^th, 2023 through until after May 31^st, 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.
