New Pasta Decor Pikmin Adds Flavor to Pikmin Bloom

When it comes to encouraging people to step outside, Niantic's AR games never cease to amaze with their creative approaches. The latest update for Pikmin Bloom might just be the most peculiar yet, as it introduces a unique twist that involves visiting your local Italian restaurant.

No, this isn't a sneaky way to boost restaurant visits. Instead, Pikmin Bloom is rolling out the Pasta Decor Pikmin, a new variety of the beloved creatures adorned with various types of pasta. You can find seedlings for these quirky Pikmin at Italian eateries in your area.

These Pasta Decor Pikmin come decked out in a range of pasta styles, from the familiar to the exotic, catering to all pasta enthusiasts. While the idea might seem bizarre, it's likely to draw players out of their homes effectively, purely due to its novelty.

Boy, this stuff is goodThe sheer oddity of this update might just be the key to its success. Though I'm curious about how such an idea came to fruition, I believe local restaurant owners will appreciate the increased foot traffic, provided they aren't overwhelmed by crowds.

To participate in this pasta-themed adventure, make sure to update your Pikmin Bloom app. It's a small effort for the chance to discover these delightful pasta-clad Pikmin. So, head out and start searching for those seedlings!
