not necessarily at specific times, but being that this game interacts with real world locations, you're encouraged to play it when you're in public which tends to be very distracting
you get 3 chances a day to attack mushrooms for rewards. there is also a radar that reveals items in an area and replenishes once a day
in order to level up or complete some events, you must plant a certain number of flowers, defeat mushrooms, send pikmin out on expeditions, and feed pikmin nectar to collect petals. you also frequently have to check if there are new expeditions in the area and select specific pikmin to send, which can be tedious
the devs are constantly adding new pikmin accessories to collect
you can send postcards from locations you've visited to friends once a day
in group quests, it tallies how many steps/flowers each person contributed at the end and ranks players accordingly
many things run on timers. sending pikmin on expeditions, collecting accessories when you've leveled a pikmin enough, and battling mushrooms (which used to take anywhere from 30 seconds to a few hours but was recently updated to take several hours to multiple days to complete)
you can spend in game currency on tickets that allow you to refresh certain things, like mushroom battles, the radar, and weekly quests, as well as getting extra slots to grow seeds more quickly
youre encouraged to join group quests that take place over a week and everyone's steps/flowers planted are totalled together towards the goal
since i have been playing since the first month the game dropped, i have several badges from specific events and many limited time pikmin that aren't available anymore
