One way is by growing a [[Seedling|Huge Seedling]]. These are unlocked at [[level]] 10 and can be found from [[expedition]]s or [[Level|leveling up]]. Huge Seedlings require 10,000 steps to grow, and after growing one in the [[Planter Pack]], plucking it will result in an animation where the Pikmin jumps into a gift box, and comes out as a Decor Pikmin. The type of decor the player gets is determined by where the seedling was discovered. The Pikmin's type (color) is random. | One way to obtain Decor Pikmin is by growing a [[Seedling|Huge Seedling]].

The other way to obtain Decor Pikmin is by leveling up an individual Pikmin's [[friendship]] level. This can be done in various ways, such as by sending Pikmin on [[expedition]]s or feeding them [[nectar]]. Once the Pikmin is at the maximum friendship level of 4 hearts, a new expedition will appear for a gift box.

There are 22 types of decor, each corresponding with some kind of real-world location. The decor a Pikmin wears depends on where its [[seedling]] was found. They are listed here in the order they are listed in-game. The icons appear when viewing information about a Pikmin or seedling, and can be used to work out what type of Decor Pikmin a Pikmin will level up into. | There are 22 types of decor, each corresponding with some kind of real-world location.

Decor Pikmin are ''Pikmin Bloom''{{'s}} main collectable item, so there is an incentive to collect as many types as possible. | Decor Pikmin are ''Pikmin Bloom''{{'s}} main collectable item, so there is an incentive to collect as many types as possible. To aid in getting decor types you don't already have, go to a Pikmin's information page (or a seedling's information page) to look for the icon in the red circle. This icon represents the decor type; the icon associated with each type can be seen in the table above. Focus on increasing the [[friendship]] of Pikmin with decor types you don't already have, as when they reach 4 hearts of friendship, they will turn into a Decor Pikmin after collecting a gift. To note is that Roadside-type Decor Pikmin are by far the most common, so if a Pikmin has a {{icon|Roadside|l=}} icon, it may be worth ignoring it. Pressing the star in the corner of a Pikmin's page favorites that Pikmin, and this is a useful way to indicate Pikmin you want to prioritize. To see which types of Decor Pikmin you already have, tap a Decor Pikmin-related [[Badge (Pikmin Bloom)|badge]] on your [[Pikmin Bloom interface#Profile|profile page]] and scroll down to see a list of all Decor Pikmin types. | ||
The [[detector]] can be a useful way to get Decor types you don't have many of. It displays icons that can tell you what types of Decor Pikmin can be found nearby. Using it has a chance of uncovering seedlings of the decor types displayed, so if you're missing certain types, tactical use of the detector can be handy. | The [[detector]] can be a useful way to get Decor types you don't have many of.
