You can use Joyful Song of Fireworks to perform an elegant dance in the game.
The Skyward Bouquets banner also features a new four-star outfit called Midnight Vigil. Inspired by the first guardian of the Carnival of Fireworks, this sweet blue and white ensemble features ribbons and buttons reminiscent of a marching band uniform. And if that’s not cute enough, when Nikki wears this outfit, up to five Floofs that she has groomed will line up and follow her, each wearing tiny hats. Once the Floof team has formed, Momo will also join on at the end, rounding up the troops.
Dance Till Dawn comes with the Confetti: Gliding ability. You can activate this ability while in Stonewoods and Firework Isles to enjoy a thrilling gliding experience, with endless confetti lighting up the party until you leave.
