*On the day of the event, ticket holders will be able to exchange 180 blue hydrangea petals for 300 coins at the store. In the event that you run out of blue hydrangea petals, please use this option.
3: The postcards you will get during the event will have a special design for the online event, Pikmin Bloom Journey 2026: Challenge Anywhere Kobe (+ Greater Area).
Collect as many postcards as you can and send them to your friends to share the experience! The design of the postcard will be published at a later date.
※Postcards will include pictures and the name of the locations where your Pikmin squad picked them up.
4: Giant, event-exclusive Festival Mushrooms will appear during the event! While these Mushrooms will sprout in Kobe and the surrounding areas, battles can be joined from anywhere around the world!
There’s no limit to how many people can join these mushrooms. Destroy as many as you can to get specially designed postcards. These mushrooms differ from regular ones in the following ways:
- Festival Mushrooms will appear in various locations of Kobe and the surrounding area at regular intervals. Users who have a Challenge Anywhere ticket can participate in these Mushrooms from wherever they are in the world.
- Festival Mushrooms will not be displayed to users who do not have a Challenge Anywhere ticket.
- There is no limit to the number of participants who can join Festival Mushrooms.
- Even if 5 or more people have already joined, you can still participate without using a Mushroom Recharge Ticket by using your three daily free battles. Once you’ve used up your free battles, you’ll need a Mushroom Recharge Ticket.
- You won’t be able to use Mushroom Battle Bullhorns, and you can’t cancel these Mushroom battles midway.
- When you destroy a Festival Mushroom before 23:59 on November 29, 2026 (local time), you’re guaranteed to get a Mystery Box from November’s event. ※You’re also guaranteed to obtain November’s seasonal nectar from these Mushrooms.
5: Ticket holders will receive a Special Pikmin Bloom Journey 2026: Challenge Anywhere Kobe Exclusive Balloon Mii item featuring the event’s logo sometime around 9:00 on November 24, 2026 (local time).
