You don’t need a perfect town but you get a better chance of it spawning. I’ve gotten one and I’m at 4 stars.I got 4 yesterday. 2 skinny and 2 flat. Does the rare mushroom only spawn with a perfect town, or is it just more likely? I've got stuff all on my beach for a friend so it ruins my rating.
6 mushrooms a day are supposed to sprout around either cedar or non-fruit hardwood trees. You need to make sure you've seen Isabelle's message for the day to ensure the day resets. Granted, I only found 5 on ExIsle today. The news about there possibly being some on mystery islands is encouraging. I guess I'll have to check that out.
I didn't find any on the one I visited.Unfortunately I don't think it's true. I've been to about 60 more mystery islands today, and still not found a single mushroom on them. Unless there's a specific island type that can spawn them?
from what I've heard the rare mushrooms rate is the same as the golden stag, unless you have a 5 star rating, then it goes up to around 10%I got 4 yesterday. 2 skinny and 2 flat.

Can confirm, I only got 5 including 1 Rare Mushroom that I dug up.
Did the one you dig up take the place of one of your daily fossils? I have my fossils buried behind my museum as I don't want to hunt down fossils anymore but I haven't found any mushrooms buried in the ground.
I have fossils buried behind a cliff for the same reason. I would assume it is safe to say the rare mushroom does not take place of the fossils. I did see a source that Rare Mushrooms have low occurrence.
