Special offer

The Special Offer section, added on May 22nd, 2023, contains a single item, the Free Daily Pack. This pack costs   0 coins, and its contents are random each day: either 5 nectar or 10 petals, where the nectar and petals can be any color of regular flowers or any color of the current monthly flower. It can only be purchased once per day, and once it is purchased the section disappears until it resets at midnight in the player's local timezone.

Upgrades

These increase the maximum amount of a particular type of item that can be stored.

Upgrade Effect Initial limit[1] Maximum limit Price
Seedling Storage Increases the maximum number of seedlings the player can carry by 5. 30 100 (14 upgrades)   180 Coins
Pikmin Storage Increases the maximum number of Pikmin the player can have by 50. 300 2000 (34 upgrades)   440 Coins
Nectar Storage Increases the maximum number of nectar the player can carry by 50 per type. 200 1000 (16 upgrades)   350 Coins
Flower Petal Storage Increases the maximum number of petals the player can carry by 50 per type. 300 1200 (18 upgrades)   350 Coins
Postcard Storage Increases the maximum number of postcards the player can store by 50. 400 2000 (32 upgrades)   180 Coins

Upgrades can also be bought with real-world money, with the price being the same for all upgrades: $1.99 USD / $2.79 CAD / ¥250 / $2.99 AUD / €2.49 / ₱99.00 / £1.99. As a result, the value of coins versus real money is vastly different for each upgrade type.

The postcard storage upgrade was added to this section on June 23rd, 2022.

Initial flower petal storage capacity increased from 200 to 300 on July 11th, 2022, and maximum flower petal storage capacity increased from 1000 to 1200 on July 19th, 2022.

On September 14th, 2022, the 5 upgrades costing real-world money were removed and the 5 upgrades costing coins were added. On December 7th, 2022, the upgrades costing real-world money were re-added back to the game as an alternative to the upgrades costing coins.

On February 16th, 2022, the upgrades costing coins for Pikmin, nectar, and flower petals changed amounts and prices. Before this date, a Pikmin storage upgrade cost 180 coins and increased the limit by 20, a nectar storage upgrade cost 180 coins and increased the limit by 25, and a flower petal storage upgrade cost 180 coins and increased the limit by 25.

Mii costumes

This section contains costumes for Miis. It was added to the shop several months after the game's release, initially appearing inconsistently between July 11th and July 22nd, 2022, before becoming a permanent part of the shop on July 23rd, 2022. On October 13th, 2022 (as part of update 55.0), the section was renamed from "Mii Items" to "Mii Costumes" and was reduced in size, only showing 6 featured items, and a button labeled "See other items" was added to link to the Mii editor, where the rest of the items can be bought from.

For a list of purchasable Mii costumes, see Mii.

Trivia

  • Early beta testers of the app have increased storage limits by default. These are:
    • 500 of each kind of nectar instead of 200.
    • 500 of each kind of petals instead of 200.
    • 1000 Pikmin instead of 300.
    • 50 seedlings instead of 30.
