Decor Pikmin: Difference between revisions

The final way to get Decor Pikmin is through growing Gold Seedlings. These seedlings are mostly received through events but sometimes can be obtained in [[Weekly challenge|weekly challenges]] and from [[Friend#Inviting friends|inviting friends]] to play the game. Gold Seedlings work similarly to Huge Seedling in which they instantly give you a Decor Pikmin after growing them. The only difference is, Gold Seedlings only require 100 steps to grow instead of 10,000. The type of Decor Pikmin you obtain from these seedling depends on the event that is taking place when you get them.

These Decor Pikmin wear red decorations with a gold 福 character, signifying "good luck" or "good fortune". These Decor Pikmin were Red, Yellow, and Blue exclusively. They could only be obtained from a Huge Seedling marked with the {{icon|Special|l=|c=invert}} Special Decor icon. Only one seedling could be held at a time, and once that Pikmin is plucked another event seedling can be discovered.
