[@TheKimharv]

I thought that as well and I think your referring to Tucker. I looked him up and it basically says he’s designed to resemble a Wooly mammoth but he’s still categorized as an elephant.

[@cozyskyjurnee]

@@TheKimharv many villagers are categorized outside of their actual species. For example, Julia is a peacock but considered an ostrich . They use the terms like "similar to" and "resembles" for a great many villagers

[@nolangerrans6083]

@@cozyskyjurnee indeed, there are quite a few villagers that while using the base model of one animal, but are clearly referencing another similarly shaped animal, like how there is a zebra, okapi, and unicorn villager that all use the horse model. What’s funny is that on top of Julia, MOST ostriches aren’t actually ostriches. Out of 12 ostrich villagers in new horizons, only ~4 are actually meant to ostriches, and of them, one is a robot, and two others might be referencing the ostriches close relatives, the emu and rhea. Sandy is pretty much the only ostrich that seems to just be an ostrich. You could honestly make a better argument for them being cranes if you were unaware of what they really were, as there are THREE crane based ostrich villagers, Blanche, Cranston, and Gladys.

45th fact is false: actually, lazy villagers are the most common personality, with 60 villagers. Edit: I forgot the existence of Marty the lazy cub, Étoile the normal sheep and Chelsea the normal doe, so the most common personalities are normal and lazy villagers with 61 villagers.

[@miles6492]

Actually, the twins' relation to Tom is somewhat ambiguous, with some villagers saying they're his nephews and others saying that Tom adopted them as orphans in the city. I think Tom himself says they're his "proteges" to not have to go into his personal business with everyone.

[@bigboater9109]

all three of those things can be true, they can be his nephews, they very well could be orphans from the city that nook adopted (orphans just means their parents died), and they could be his proteges which just means nook is training them

I think we have a 50/50 chance of actually hearing something about ACNH at the Direct. While we KNOW that Nintendo is working on updates and that we most likely will see Brewster and gyroids by year's end there is a good chance they could keep it under wraps until late fall/early winter and just toss us the small update we need to unlock Halloween next month. I am hoping we see something about Animal Crossing, but I'm not holding my breath. I know it will come eventually...but it could still be months away. I know if I was The Big N I would probably shoot for releasing a BIG update close to Christmas to generate buzz and drive up Holiday sales.

Actually, excluding the fossilized villagers, there are 2 other extinct characters that have been realistically absent. Those two are Bow and Meow. Them not being put on sale by Nintendo probably kills all of their species in-game!

[@stratonikisporcia8630]

Bow and Meow are actually robots, named after 2 human-animal translation devices. It's very likely that Nintendo had to remove them to prevent legal issues with Takara, the company selling them.

Okay so about Timmy and Tommy, it's odd, the games seemingly keep contradicting themselves when it comes to them. In Wild World Tom says they aren't related and are just employees but in other games he calls them his nephews?? I'm just gonna guess that they aren't actually related to Nook but rather he's sort of their parental figure looking out for them. Hence the 'Not related' 'they're my nephews' thing. They're his nephews just not by blood. Honorary sort of deal I think.

Question, how many NPCs are there that are the same species as you can get as villagers? Aka you can’t get a dog like Isabelle or a sloth like Leif

[@stratonikisporcia8630]

Ok so... Booker, Copper, Digby, Harriet, Isabelle, KK, Serena and Harvey all are dogs, but don't share the same model as regular dogs ; Niko and Porter are both monkeys, but only Porter uses the regular monkey model ; Jingle is a deer but his model isn't the same as other deers ; Blanca, Kaitlin, Katie and Rover all are cats similar to villager cats ; Zipper is a "rabbit" but his model is different ; Beppe, Carlo and Giovanni from Pocket Camp are birds but don't have the regular bird model. Same could be said of Blathers, Brewster, Celeste, Pelly, Pete, Phyllis, Orville and Wilbur who have their own models as well, though they aren't labeled "birds", and Pavé the peacock ressembles an ostrich. Other things I noticed making this list: The white owl in New Leaf... Just... What? All of Kapp'n's family is called "turtle" except Tortimer who's a "tortoise"
