'''Weekly challenges''' are a feature of {{pb}}, introduced in [[Update|version]] 44.0. Each week, a certain challenge (such as walking some number of steps) is set for all players, and players can work together with up to 4 [[friend]]s to complete the challenge as a group. Completing a challenge before the deadline gives rewards to each player in the group.

{{update|Document the new system for selecting challenge groups, what happens when you leave a challenge, and the new challenge retry ticket.}}
To begin a weekly challenge a player needs to open the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Activity list|activity list]] menu and select a challenge. A menu displaying groups participating in the selected challenge will be presented. These groups are comprised of the player's friends, as well as their friends. If there are no such acquaintances participating in challenges prior to the player opening this menu, or if all groups are filled, the player will be presented with the option to begin a new group.  


To begin a weekly challenge a player needs to open the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Challenge list|challenge list]] menu and select a challenge. A menu displaying groups participating in the selected challenge will be presented. These groups are comprised of the player's friends, as well as friends of friends, with a final option featuring only the player, should they choose to begin a new challenge themselves. After selecting a group, the player will be asked to confirm their choice. If a player so wishes, they may invite friends to any open slots within the challenge before or after choosing to initiate.
While a challenge is active its display in the [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Activity list|activity list]] changes to display the challenge's progress and its participants. Tapping on the challenge will bring the player to a screen displaying all participants jogging together, each alongside a few of the Pikmin in their active [[squad]]. This screen features various elements, such as the step total and step goal, how many days remain to achieve it, the date the group began the challenge, a breakdown of each player's contribution towards the goal, alongside their profile images and names, as well as a random quote.  
 
While a challenge is active its display in the challenge list changes to display the challenge's progress and its participants. Tapping on the challenge will bring the player to a screen showing all participants jogging together, each alongside the first five Pikmin in their active [[squad]], according to their most recently-chosen sorting order. This screen features various elements, such as each player's step or flower total, the total step or flower goal and how many days remain to achieve it, the date the group began the challenge, a breakdown of each player's contribution towards the goal, their profile images and names, as well as a random quote.


Upon completing a challenge, whether by reaching either the goal or the expiration date, the player is brought to a screen displaying the group and their progress. A star-rating from 1-3 is awarded based on how much of the goal was achieved. Each player's [[Mii]] will then take turns jogging to the fore, as their contributions are displayed and celebrated by the the other Miis and Pikmin in the group.

If the player leaves a challenge before it is completed, their progress in the challenge will be removed, and they'll be able to join another challenge. If they rejoin, their previous progress does not get added.
The challenge ends at Monday midnight in the timezone of the user who created the group.

From, June 2023 to July 2023, two options were available each week for flower planting challenges, one for planting 20,000 flowers and one for planting 30,000 flowers, with each giving different types of petals as a reward.
==List of weekly challenges==
{{update maintenance|Pikipedia:Pikmin Bloom update procedure}}
The table below contains information on each weekly challenge that has happened so far. With the exception of the first challenge, weekly challenges go from Monday to Sunday. The rewards listed are the rewards for completing the challenge and getting a 3-star rating; not completing the challenge and getting a lower star rating will give rewards with lower amounts of the same nectar types. All players in the challenge are given the same rewards. Nectar rewards ignore the regular nectar storage limit, so they can cause the amount of nectar a player has to exceed its normal maximum value.


===Star challenges===
:''This table only shows the most recent weekly challenges. For older challenges, see [[Weekly challenge/Old challenges]].
These are a special kind of challenge that run on a specific date. Unlike the first two types of challenge, these do not consume Weekly Challenge Tickets and do not offer any reward for their completion. Additionally, these challenges have a host appointed by Niantic.


The first Star challenge was hosted by ジョーさん (Mr. Joe) and ran from {{date|22|October}} to {{date|29|October|2023}}.{{cite web|https://twitter.com/syokojiro/status/1715236638769697090|Tweet|ジョーさん's Twitter account|published={{date|20|October|2023}}|retrieved={{date|11|November|2023}}}} To join users had to follow a link provided by the challenge's host or scan a QR code. Once the challenge started, players could create groups of 4 people (either randomly or by inviting people from the friends list) to join ジョーさん in walking 150,000 steps.

==History==
</gallery>
Since their introduction on {{date|28|April|2022}}, there has been at least 1 weekly challenge each week, with all challenges running from Monday to Sunday (except the first). Initially, there was just one challenge each week, a step challenge. On {{date|16|May}}, a second step challenge option was added, where players could choose whether to do the easy option (most often 20,000 steps) or the hard option (most often 100,000 steps). Completing an easy step challenges usually gives 20 white nectar, 20 yellow nectar, 20 red nectar, and 10 blue nectar. Completing a hard step challenge usually gives 40 white nectar, 40 yellow nectar, 40 red nectar, 20 blue nectar, and 1 special nectar.
 
On {{date|11|July|2022}}, flower planting challenges were introduced. These usually give white petals, yellow petals, red petals, a single-use slot, and some other kind of petal when completed, though this has varied over time. Initially there were 2 levels of flower planting challenges, similar to step challenges, but from {{date|26|September}} there was only 1 type of flower planting challenge each week. Since {{date|3|July|2023}} there have now been 2 types of flower planting challenges again.
 
On {{date|23|May|2023}}, the Challenge Recharge Ticket was renamed to the Weekly Challenge Ticket.
 
On {{date|1|November|2023}}, the Weekly Challenge Ticket's price in the [[shop]] increased from 100 to 200 [[coin]]s.
 
[[Event]]s often add temporary extra rewards for completing weekly challenges, such as a [[Gold Seedling]] or a [[Mii]] part. These rewards are usually obtained no matter the score the player gets on the weekly challenge.
