Spring may now be in full bloom in some regions around the world, and many of us may be experiencing better weather and nicer temperatures that invite us to go outside and get walking! Now, getting out is a great experience in and of itself, but it can definitely be elevated if you also take the opportunity to indulge in some lavish afternoon tea and treats along the way!
The origins of afternoon tea are a bit unclear, but it is generally accepted by historians that it began (albeit not exactly in the same shape as we know it today) at some point in the 19th century. Now, who would have thought that Pikmin would be into these fancy affairs? This April, we may encounter Decor Pikmin donning tea cups as well as other classic afternoon tea sweets and savories!
Get ready for your walks to turn into a tea party of sorts as Afternoon Tea Decor Pikmin join your squad!

Destroy Lavish Mushrooms to get Mystery Boxes containing Star Candy!
During the event, you may encounter Lavish Mushrooms. When you destroy them, you’ll receive Mystery Boxes that contain items such as Star Candy, flower petals, and other items! Afternoon Tea Decor Pikmin are the strongest against these mushrooms, so be sure to send them out to destroy them!
