Pikmin Bloom celebrates five years throughout November

Pikmin Bloom's anniversary event runs November 1–30 in local time, as Nintendo's November 5 announcement explains.

New decorations, returning collections

Toy Jewelry Decor Pikmin join returning Flower Box and Cupcake anniversary sets. Event challenges award seedlings and other items, with encounters distributed randomly rather than guaranteeing a complete collection. Nintendo says version 156 or later is required to display the new decorations correctly. Its event notice gives the dates and reward conditions.

Build the event around an ordinary walk

The official game overview explains the everyday loop behind the celebration: grow seedlings, feed Pikmin nectar and collect petals to plant flowers while walking. A daily activity review records steps and visited places.

Social features offer several ways to include friends. Party Walk lets a host share a link or QR code for a walking group, while weekly step and flower-planting challenges can bring five participants together. Those options provide a broader reason to return than collecting every limited decoration.

For players revisiting the app, updating it first and choosing a manageable walk is a more useful starting point than chasing a complete set immediately. The anniversary adds temporary goals to the existing walking routine; random rewards mean progress and collecting every variant are not the same thing.
