Decor Pikmin/Animations

When plucking a Seedling or when a Pikmin receives its Decor, a short discovery animation would play, based on the Pikmin and the decor it's wearing. You can replay the animation by going onto the Pikmin viewer menu, selecting a Pikmin to see its information and tapping on the pikmin.

Spins around like a ballet dancer.

The designs of the macarons are later referenced in Pikmin 4, where they appear as treasures. Interestingly, these Decor Pikmin existed in the game at launch, even though Pikmin 4 wouldn't release until around 2 years later.
