Seasons
Seasons in Pikmin: Return to the Distant Planet change after some time. The season each area starts with, meaning the season each area has on day 1, is listed on its page. After 30 days, each area's season rotates, in order, from Winter, to Spring, to Summer, to Fall, and back again to Winter. Different seasons attract different weather conditions and enemies, giving each area 4 unique looks. Area geometry is affected by seasons, blocking and opening new shortcuts and areas with each passing season.

Temperature
Temperature in areas fluctuates depending on the time of day, the current weather condition, the season and the area. For example, a sunny day in the Abandoned Oasis will have a temperature high enough to kill Pikmin after a while, however, a sunny day in the Glacial Bay will have a temperature low enough to freeze Pikmin.
