Spooky Season has arrived in Pikmin Bloom, with the annual Halloween event beginning on October 6 and running until 11:59 local time on October 31. What does this mean for players? As you roam your neighborhood admiring Halloween decorations, your steps will bring you closer to getting Halloween-themed content in the game.
Halloween items this year include Jack-O’-Lantern decor Pikmin, which was also available in last year’s event, and all-new Halloween Treat decor Pikmin. You can also use Halloween Candy to unlock cute costumes for your Mii! There are new costumes for this year alongside favorites from last year.
Pikmin Bloom Halloween Event Challenges & Rewards
There are two ways to earn Halloween Candy. You can finish Event Challenge missions or destroy Mushrooms to earn some sweet treats! Make sure to play on weekends because that is when Giant Halloween Mushrooms appear. When these Mushrooms are destroyed, they give out extra candy and some cute spooky postcards! When you finish an Event Challenge, you will receive a random reward. These rewards might include nectar, gold seedlings, Halloween Candy, or other items. Keep reading to find out how to clear Event Challenges and get your hands on some of these prizes!

Something else to keep in mind while you are working on these challenges is that any seedlings you obtain while clearing these Event Challenges will grow into Halloween Pikmin! They appear at random, though, so you may not be able to get the whole set. It is also important to note that during this event, Jack-O’-Lantern decor Pikmin and Halloween Treat Pikmin will be stronger than normal against Mushrooms. Fortunately, Pikmin cannot die in Pikmin Bloom, so your new spooky friends are perfectly safe. Now, get out there and start earning some prizes!
