Suggestions for Pikmin Bloom Improvements/Updates

Turn the Detector’s “Places Nearby” icons yellow if its Decor Collection is complete

When activated a Detector, there are icons that appear below the “Places Nearby” text. For the Decor Collections I’ve already fully collected, it would be great if those icons turned yellow. This would be the same way the icons behind seedlings that I’ve already collected turn yellow to indicate hatching would only give me a duplicate.

Ability to hide Pikmin with 4 golden hearts in Pikmin list view

On the “Pikmin” view, it would be great to have the option to hide Pikmin with the max level, 4 golden hearts. I often try sorting by friendship level but then have to scroll past my 185 Pikmin with 4 golden hearts to get to the remaining Pikmin I’m trying to level up to max level.

Now you can, put 7* in pikmin tab->search (the magnifying glass from v98) and the search return the pikmins with that.
7* allows to see the ones with 3 full golden hearts

  • You can search -7* and it list the pikmin with 3 golden hearts or less
  • Another search is !8* (the ! is deny the next search) and bring all the pikmins that doesnt have full golden hearts. It’s very similar to the previous but select whatever you want.

If you dont have the v98, I recommended to have it, the feature is a good QoL.
To order, do before the search, because currently you cant change it in the search results.

Ugh I agree. I’ve found myself avoiding them if there’s an option for other size mushrooms unless it’s a super cool postcard. But now I am wondering if there is some unique reward that’s received with giant mushrooms even if you only get one or two stars that I’m forgetting about? :thinking: The higher goals really are extremely unobtainable on giants, even when there’s extra teammates all with high ranking levels using max strength Pikmin with the correct nectar and everything.

Ooo better yet - detector turns a different color when there’s something nearby that you don’t have yet. Then you’re not constantly checking. For example, I live in a tourist town with loads of hotels and restaurants. I completed both categories and those are the ones that show up all the time so I don’t bother to use the detector in those areas. However, every now and then there’s something from a category I don’t have completed (like a bus stop that I didn’t even know existed on this walk I’ve taken 800 times) and it would be convenient to have something that shows “hey this is a good place to use the detector”. I know you can just have the detector on and keep looking to see when the categories change, but I’d rather not stare at my phone and enjoy the journey. Thanks!

Sometimes me and my partner want to do the weekly Step Challenges by ourselves, without someone else from our respective Friends lists randomly joining us. Rather than approach them in real life and tell them to leave us alone, it would be nice to have an option to do Step Challenges privately between just the people you choose to invite.

Love this search function and your tips. I also like to search for “bud” and “leaf” depending on what I’m trying to do. I was wondering if there is a way to find petals that need to be collected. That would be really nice, but I’ve tried different things and haven’t found anything that works.

In pikmin tab if we click in the search it covers the color selection and order; but in expeditions, mushrooms, etc. when click in search it go up allowing to select both of them.
Please, add that mechanic to pikmin tab, too.

Bring back feature to block postcards

I DO NOT want to recieve any & theyre nothing but waste of time

Since the nadjustment in postcards recieving beglhaviour, it really made me feel lazier in sending out my pim.ins to my expeditions & it was already made worse when the auto feature doesnt go by speed.

So much chore & plz give me back the QoL improvement

Justice for STOP SHOVING POSTCARDS UP MY WAY

Please add the ability to sort petals and nectar by quantity. It’s annoying to have to scroll through to see what I have a lot of. Maybe others don’t save as much of everything like me, but I’m constantly scrolling through to the bottom over and over again. There are so many kinds now, even going to the middle, it’s a lot of scrolling. I don’t know if there are other sorting options that would be nice, I’m sure there might be others.

Also, for mushroom battles it would be nice if the available nectar showed the quantity I have in my inventory. That way I could easily see I’m almost maxed out on a nectar I might get after the battle.

did you quit

I would like to suggest in the Pikmin filters, the possibility of filtering Pikmin that do not have decoration yet.

I would love to see the life log in Pikmin Bloom integrate with the journaling that has been added to iOS. It seems like such a natural match.

does anyone have a list of all the possible search words?

Have the english version in FAQ Text Search Function — Pikmin Bloom Help Center
I have a post in NEW PLAYERS AND GETTING STARTED with some words from other languages, the rest of words use the same to ingame or very similar (I dont ask for them because of that)

It’s something my friends and I always say! :weary: I would love to be able to exchange duplicate pikmins so I can complete the sets, I’m always missing one or two from each event and my friend has so many of the one I’m missing :smiling_face_with_tear:

Search in seedling menu, it’s the last place where we dont have it
And with the rare decor a search for category it’s extremely helpful.
