Suggestions for Pikmin Bloom Improvements/Updates

Please allow more than 5 free mushrooms spots!! Now that you can call 10 people, I’ve gone from being able to join nearly any mushroom call to missing out on nearly all of them due to so many people being able to join in a short amount of time.

I also desperately want a message to pop up indicating we’ve sent a specific postcard to a user before, similar to the new notification alerting us that we have X amount of this postcard already.

I’d like to ability to send a decor Pikmin back to its origin point to retrieve a seedling of the same decor. This could be a reward for reaching 8* with that pikmin. The journey time can also be adjusted to account for the fact that it’s a single pikmin dragging the seedling back by itself.

I think this would be a very welcome update for everyone, from rural players who rarely have access to certain categories to city players where the detector is flooded with categories we’ve already completed. This would give us the option of slow progression instead of just relying on RNG forever.

Can we get an update to display your strength when attempting to join a mushroom.

Currently it only displays a combined strength with everyone else. This is tedious to manually calculate your strength by trying to figure out the difference. It’d be nice if it showed an additional line on the strength with your strength.

It’s easy to miss some pikmin that are holding a fruit or still stuck in an expedition collection without seeing your party strength proir to joining a mishroom

Can we please discard/recycle a planted seedling? I don’t see why not, that would be nice. Thank you!

i think so too!
I hope they implement that feature soon.

Ever better better yet, it would be great if there were an option that could be turned on that would “Automatically use daily detector when nearby an incomplete decor type.”

Love this!! Thanks for the tip :+1:

Suggested before, I would love to be able to make a queue of flowers to plant. That would be extremely helpful!

Also please let me name seedlings.

Lastly (for now) could you add a recently searched thing to the search bar? I use the same searches a ton, that would be great, thank you!!

Suggest to be able to sort petal and nectar since the list getting more and more. Thank

Hello, and thank you Pikmin Bloom team for all your super hard work!!!

I’m adding my support to those who recommend including enemies from the game somehow. Especially Breadbugs since they can steal treasure.

If possible I’d like to have an alien character creator like in Pikmin 4 instead of a Mii.

I’d also like the friend Bullhorn auto call option to be randomized again. I don’t want to call the same 10 people each time, and selecting manually takes too much time when you’re on a quick work break walk.

Auto Select pikmin even if holding items and collect held items automatically before going to battle

I want to join battles with full force but sometimes forget to collect items from Pikmin returning from a previous battle. This is more likely to occur when I’m in a rush to join a battle before the free slots full up.

This would apply when sorting by strength and I select auto, and only after I click on Join. Maybe show some indication on the pikmin who are holding something. Then on the animation when they leave for battle you can show the other pikmin in the squad picking up dropped items…

I’d make an exception for presents though…

You can reverse the sort so your newest are on top.

(This was in response to another suggestion for sorting and filtering pikmin to not show pikmin with full hearts. My post looks like it’s tracked on the end of the thread instead of replying to the specific post.)

Yes please allow friends to donate nectar and petals to each other.

And to trade or give pikmin to each other like in Pokemon.

(This was in response to another suggestion to share nectar with friends. My post looks like it’s tracked on the end of the thread instead of replying to the specific post.)

I would like to add friends from mushroom battles AFTER the battle is over. Or send invites to people attacking a full mushroom that you can’t join.

Right now I can only send invites during the battle to people who join.

I’d also like to sort friends by location or time zone, to potentially not invite friends in the middle of their nighttime.

I like the idea. But I like the idea of Trading decormin better. Itll help complete collections and the pikimin dont have to die. Also what if you lost a rare decormin. That would stink.

Just my thoughts

This is all seedling related, so don’t read if you aren’t interested :slightly_smiling_face:

You should be able to name seedlings. I literally name almost every Pikmin for management. If I could do this in the seedling state it would save me from waiting until it’s ready to be plucked or remembering after I’ve plucked it.

I already said I want to be able to name seedlings, but something else that would help with management would be changing the view so you can see what a seeding is. It’s annoying you can’t see what a gold or huge seedling is without opening it. All you can see is number of steps and color/size. I don’t know, my dad is color blind so maybe it needs to say the color, but you should be able to see more than that, especially for gold and huge.

I also dislike that special seedlings icons don’t turn gold for complete collections. It would be nice to have a filter that could filter out completed collections or something that indicates what special seedlings you have that are from incomplete collections.

You all know I love the game though! So many really great ideas in this thread have already been implemented. Love and appreciate the work you do!! Thanks to anyone that read this far!

I just wish there were more uses for the postcards, especially ones that are duplicated. Maybe if we can convert 5 of the same postcards into a seedling from the location of that postcard, that’d be really cool.

this is brilliant: reminds me of POGO gifts but more customizable. you would have to bury the option or have a warning to give Pikmin so you don’t do it on accident. I could see giving nectar and flowers but I doubt niantic would be chill with remote Pikmin trading (or else they wouldn’t sell any event tickets)

I wish there was a way to bulk send for all expeditions. It takes so long to send for 30-40 things after a long walk.

Please please let us bulk send.
