Mushroom challenge

Mushroom challenges are special events in which groups of Spotcaps and Kingcaps of various colors and sizes appear, and Pikmin can be assigned to attack them. The mushrooms can be small, normal, large, and giant, with larger mushrooms having more health and giving more rewards than smaller ones. There are several colors of mushrooms for each size, and each color can also determine the type of nectar they yield upon destruction. Once a mushroom challenge is initiated, the involved Pikmin will rush toward the mushrooms and start attacking them, and target another mushroom if they destroy the one they are currently attacking. How much damage a Pikmin inflicts upon a mushroom increases depending on: if it is the same color as the mushroom's cap; its maturity and friendship level, which are both independent factors, and Pikmin with rare flowers being more effective than those with standard flowers; and if it is a Decor Pikmin. Clearing the challenge gives fruits, and therefore nectar, and a related postcard as rewards, the time it took to clear the challenge, and a score measuring how well the Pikmin performed. After being destroyed, the mushrooms can eventually grow back, sometimes in a different color or size.
