ICE PIKMIN DETAILS:

  • On November 1st at 00:00 local time, you may begin to find blue seedlings that grow into Ice Pikmin when out and about on your walks. Initially, Ice Pikmin seedlings will be available for Restaurant and Roadside locations only. When you raise your friendship levels with Ice Pikmin grown from seedlings found at these locations, they will become Chef Hat Decor Pikmin (Restaurant) or Sticker or Coin Decor Pikmin (Roadside) respectively. Rare Decor will also be made available for all Coin Decor Pikmin.

  • Additionally, all users will receive a mission to walk 100 steps. Clearing this mission gets you a seedling to meet your very first Ice Pikmin! After clearing your first mission, you will receive two more missions to walk 2,000 steps and 3,000 steps respectively. You must clear the second mission in order to access the third one. Rewards for these missions are an Ice Pikmin Beanie for your Mii and an Ice Pikmin Printed T-shirt for your Mii.

  • When you have already met all Decor Pikmin from a certain category, that category icon is displayed in yellow instead of gray. With the arrival of Ice Pikmin, Restaurant and Roadside category icons will revert to gray for all users. When you meet Ice Pikmin for these categories, the icon will become yellow again.
