** One of the dreams in question in ''New Horizons'' is about a dinosaur who couldn't pay off their mortgage in a million years if they hear you've been digging up fossils. Another dream that's exclusive to New Leaf is one where they have dreams about giant fruits, and even dreams about being a superheroine. '''Back off, evildoer.'' They also sometimes speak in redundancy as shown by LetsPlayer/Chuggaaconroy.

** Phlegmatic: Lazy (Male)/Normal (Female)

[[caption-width-right:260:Some examples of Normal villagers. Clockwise from top left: Caroline, Kitt, Goldie, Marina, Nana, Merengue, Lolly, Bettina, and Aurora]]
Normal villagers are just that... normal. Unlike the people around them, who tend to be a little... ''extreme'' in one way or another, Normal villagers are soft-spoken, pleasant ladies whom it's nice to have on your side. They get along with just about everyone. In ''Wild World,'' though, they were known for being a little bit... [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} out there.]]
----
* {{Adorkable}}: They seem to be the token female geek of Animal Crossing. Also their introverted and shy nature makes them this.
* AnimeChineseGirl: Pekoe, a bear cub villager of this type.
* BewareTheNiceOnes:
** They're some of the nicest villagers in the series, but they can say some surprisingly cutting things if they're angered.
** {{Discussed|Trope}} in ''New Leaf''; the reason a Lazy villager will ask you to [[FetchQuest return an item]] they forgot they had to a Normal villager is because they're scared of them when they're mad.
* BerserkButton: Don't call them a neat freak or tell them to StayInTheKitchen. Lazy villagers find that out the hard way.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: In ''Wild World,'' they picked up a bit of a loopy streak, especially with regards to "Moppina." They seem to be back to their old selves in ''City.'' They still have a bit of a loopy streak because they stick their heads in dry laundry often. In ''New Leaf'', they might mention that they were writing a poem about a salt shaker or want to bake a cake in the shape of a pocket knife. According to a few time capsule letters, they'll also sleep in seemingly dangerous appliances such as a dryer. [[SchmuckBait Hopefully not with them on.]]
** NotSoAboveItAll: Often in random conversations they will say how they were pressing flower petals together in books and mistook them for tea leaves which they then served to a Snooty villager. Perhaps they're only "Normal" compared to everyone else?
* CompanionCube: In ''Wild World,'' they claim to be "best friends" with, err, a mop named Moppina. According to WordOfGod, this is meant to reflect on their slightly obsessive natures and their secret fears about germs and being judged for the state of their household. Makes you wonder what their childhoods must have been like...
* CoolMask: Filly, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
* CuteBookworm: One of their favorite hobbies is reading. They might get too excited sometimes when they talk about books to other people, which they then get embarrassed over. In ''Happy Home Designer'', your first real client is Goldie, and she naturally wants an interior remodel for a room filled with books.
* CuteClumsyGirl: Often prone to losing things and a tad scatterbrained. Shown in a letter where they'll sometimes randomly forget what they were about to talk to you about and are the most likely to lose "lost items".
* DistaffCounterpart: To Lazy villagers.
* TheGenericGirl: Their defining personality trait is their ''lack'' of crazy. Well, except in ''Wild World.''
%%* GirlNextDoor
* GranolaGirl: They think about making the world a better place and talking about the environment. They especially like to talk whenever you see them with a watering can how they want to fill the world with flowers.
* GuestFighter: Two, actually. There's Medli, a rito girl from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker'', and Viché, a squirrel who cosplays Marie from ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''.
* HypocriticalHumor: In ''New Leaf'', they sometimes talk about how silly it is to think wrinkles in clothing are "the end of the world", before saying stains are.
* NeatFreak: In ''Wild World'', they're so obsessed with cleanliness that their best friend is a mop. They still show signs of this in later games.
* NiceGirl: They're one of the easiest villagers to befriend, and are also one of the least likely to move out.
* NotSoDifferent: In a conversation with Jock villagers regarding their respective interests in reading and exercise, they may conclude this about each other. "You prefer to exercise your body, and I prefer to exercise my mind."
* OnlySaneMan: Marina's ''Wild World'' picture quote [[note]]I think I'm the only sane one in this town[[/note]] even references this!
* PandaingToTheAudience: Pekoe is a cub clearly meant to look like a panda.
* ShrinkingViolet: Most of the time they're quiet and soft spoken.
* SpotOfTea: Tia, a white elephant introduced in ''New Leaf'', whose head resembles a teapot. Her catchphrase is "teacup", and her picture quote is "tea is a cup of life".
* SternTeacher: They're this in Happy Home Designer if you visit the school and they're the teacher.
-->'''Normal Teacher:''' Don't come into my classroom if you're not ready to do some serious schoolwork. / (Sighing) I KNOW I've got a reputation as a really tough taskmaker, [[ForYourOwnGood but that's only because I care, OK?]]
* SuperOCD: They have a mop they "talk" to named Moppina and are embarrassed whenever you come over. Perhaps they're worried the player will judge them.
* SweetTooth: Megan, a bear introduced in ''New Horizons''. Her Japanese name is Candy, her catchphrase is "sundae", she holds a lollipop in her poster, and her ''Pocket Camp'' bio notes how much she loves sweets, to the point that she only allows herself to partake in them after she finishes her daily chores so that she doesn't overindulge.
* {{Tsundere}}: Sweet type. They're really easy to befriend, but they can get quite annoyed at Lazy and Jock villagers. See the below conversation between a Normal and Lazy villager under InnocentlyInsensitive below.

[[folder: Peppy]]
[[WMG: Peppy]]
[[quoteright:239:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/peppy_9407.png]]
[[caption-width-right:239:Some examples of Peppy villagers. Clockwise from top left: Twiggy, Pango, Chrissy, Bubbles, Pompom, Winnie, Patty, Rosie, and Bluebear]]
Like, ohmigosh! Peppy villagers are, like, those one girls, you know, like, the ones who live in California? I forget what they call them, but, like, they're always energetic and interested in fashion and stuff! And they, like, use "Like" a lot? Whatever--they're always, like, full of energy, so, like, they really love doing stuff!
----
* BlueIsHeroic: Agent S, one of the five superhero villagers, has blue as her primary color.
* BreakoutCharacter: Of all the villagers, Rosie is the most prominent in media. She has received a starring role in the movie, appears in Villager's reveal trailer, received several pieces of merchandise, has a space in Nintendo Monopoly and a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' (the latter two no other villager does).
* BuffySpeak: If you get their coffee order perfect in ''New Leaf'', they may respond with "OMG! This smells, like, supremely nommy!"
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: They've been known to burn juice. How do you burn juice?
* CoolHelmet: Agent S, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
* CoolShades: Audie, a peppy wolf introduced in ''New Horizons'', has these.
* DistaffCounterpart: To the equally energetic Jock villagers.
* TheDitz: When you talk to them in their house, they may tell you about how they lost all of their socks, only to find them ''in the freezer''. [[CaptainObvious And now their feet are cold.]]
* EpicFail: Within their house, they may remark that they've been known to burn water. How do you burn water?!
* GenkiGirl: Oh, ''so'' much.
* GoshDangItToHeck: Many of their pictures have {{Unusual Euphemism}}s of this sort written on them, like "SHRIEKING SUGARCUBES!"
* GuestFighter: Epona, Link's horse that debuted in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'', and Cece, a squirrel who cosplays Callie from ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''.
* ItsAllAboutMe: A friendly version of this. ''New Leaf'' makes their behavior more narcissistic, with them loving attention and thinking of themselves as having lots of fans.
%%* {{Kawaiiko}}
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The Light Feminine to the Snooty characters' Dark Feminine. While the peppy villagers are bubbly, nice and energetic, the Snooty characters are vainer and do not get along as easily with other characters. Further exemplified with the rabbits Chrissy (peppy) and Francine (snooty), who wear the Lite Polka Tee and Dark Polka Tee respectively.
* LikeIsLikeAComma: Being, essentially, animal {{Valley Girl}}s.
* PerkyGoth: Bella has a hint of this; she's a normal Peppy villager, but her default shirt has a ''flaming skull'' on it and [[{{Metalhead}} she plays K.K. Metal in her home if she has a stereo]].
* StepfordSmiler: Merry. She goes beyond being Peppy to the point of smiling at all times, even during her "angry" and "sad" animations and dialogue.
* {{Tsundere}}: Sweet, especially to Lazy villagers who often argue with them. Can also be this to Jock villagers, who are often hanging around with them.
* ValleyGirl: Their interests plus the way they speak show them this way.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Snooty]]
[[WMG: Snooty]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snooty_9426.png]]
[[caption-width-right:300:Some examples of Snooty villagers. Clockwise from top left: Portia, Yuka, Velma, Astrid, Mint, Olivia, Francine, Mallary, and Freya]]
Snooty characters aren't ''nasty,'' exactly, but they definitely have a highfalutin' attitude. They have a tendency to rub others the wrong way. That said, they're not totally heartless -- in fact, if befriended, they can be quite nice. They have a taste for the finer things in life and high standards, though. In New Leaf especially they're not as mean as they used to be and are actually quite friendly to other villagers and especially the player.
----
* {{Adorkable}}: They've been given this trait in ''New Leaf'' along with CloudCuckoolander. The fact that they squee when you give them a good present is also enough to be in this trope.
* AncientEgypt: Ankha the cat, who looks like a typical pharaoh and has an Egyptian-themed house.
* BigBeautifulWoman: Naomi tries to invoke this on her amiibo card.
* CloudCuckoolander: In ''New Leaf'' they may sometimes talk about [=UFOs=]. And no, it's not what you think it is... [[spoiler:They're "Unidentified Floor Oranges".]]
* CoolBigSis: Believe it or not, Lazy villagers may comment on how a Snooty villager would be nice to have as a sister. They also act like a surrogate big sister to the player character if you befriend them. Or even a MamaBear or possible LoveInterest to Male [=PCs=].
** Francine the rabbit seems to be this to Chrissy the peppy rabbit, particularly in ''Happy Home Designer'' where her room request is "something Chrissy would like." The Japanese ''City Folk'' website even says she's Chrissy's older sister. According to their ''[[VideoGame/AnimalCrossingPocketCamp Pocket Camp]]'' bios, Francine is very mindful of Chrissy's behavior despite how aloof she is of her own; her own further suggests that his is a testament to just how much she cares for her.
* DeadpanSnarker: They have their moments.
* DefrostingIceQueen: They can be standoffish at first, but will quickly warm up to the player if you make the effort to befriend them.
* DistaffCounterpart: They are this to Smug villagers, who are similarly vain but willing to befriend you. Until ''New Leaf'', however, they were compared to Cranky villagers despite neither personality sharing anything in common besides possibly their age range.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: One snooty villager is an anteater... named Snooty.
* FormerChildStar: Used to be in a show called "<Town Name> Kids Sing Hour" or something to that effect and signed autographs everywhere. They gave it up for the quiet life in your town and aren't even recognized by any animal celebrities like K.K. Slider and Gracie.
* GossipyHens: The primary source of gossip in town are usually these villagers. Of course, they try to deny it. A few Snooty villagers are ''literally'' hens. Note that if you should befriend one, they'll say they'd never say anything but good things about the PC and state that he/she is so much better than anyone else.
* GyaruGirl: Soleil looks a lot like one.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Very much so in the GCN game; toned down in later games, to the point that they're actually less self centered than the Peppy villagers in ''New Leaf''.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: They can be this on their good days, talking about how the player is one of their best friends and often compliment the player's house in ''New Leaf''.
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The Dark Feminine to the Peppy villagers' Light Feminine. See entry on Peppy Villagers.
* LovableAlphaBitch: Especially in ''New Leaf'', in which they're much nicer (and [[CloudCuckoolander loopier]]) than before. Noticeably, when returning left-behind items to other villagers (which the player delivers), the recipient may comment about how nicely it's wrapped. When you return the news to the Snooty villager, they'll reply, "Well, of course I wrapped it up! What kind of savage doesn't return an item wrapped up nicely?"
* MotherGoose: Willow the sheep has two nursery rhyme references related to sheep. Her catchphrase is "bo peep" and her Japanese name is Mari (Mary).
* TheOjou: They've got the princess (or depending on how old they actually are) queen-like personality down and even have well refined tastes as shown by their houses, so should you cater to their tastes, they'll greatly reward you for it.
* SelfDeprecation: In ''New Leaf'', they occasionally acknowledge that they can be hard to deal with.
* ShesGotLegs: A humorous subversion. They will comment that they're proud of their legs...then specify that they're proud of them because they're one of the fastest runners. It's even lampshaded, at the end of the conversation.
* ShipperOnDeck: PlayedForLaughs; in ''New Leaf'' they may sometimes ask the player if two other villagers in town make a cute couple, only to admit they're not actually a couple, "...yet."
* ShipTease: In New Leaf, if you're a male and you constantly send them letters they'll usually end their letters with "Love and Yours" and begin their letters with My dear X, showing they can really have a crush on the protagonist if given the chance. Could be MayDecemberRomance depending on just how much older they are than the protagonist.
* ShoutOut: Velma looks an awful lot like [[WesternAnimation/ScoobyDoo another character named Velma...]] In ''New Leaf'' she was even given a new outfit that looks more like her.
* SoProudOfYou: After sending them enough letters, if you send them one during the holiday season they state how much you've grown up and that they are proud of who you've become, regardless of gender. They also state they must have learned that from them.
* {{Squee}}: In ''New Leaf'', if you give them the right present on their birthday, they'll squeal in delight.
* TookALevelInKindness: Much like Cranky villagers, they've gotten considerably less acerbic with each installment. By the time of ''New Leaf'', they're hardly mean. Just very high-maintenance.
* {{Tsundere}}: Harsh type. They tend to go from aloof to nice in a short time span.
* VagueAge: Like Cranky below, they are extremely hard to tell how old they are. Some say they're as old as the Cranky villagers through subtle hints like "having an arsenal of skin care products to deal with wrinkles" which would put them in the late 30s early 40s or possibly even 50s range. Though they don't appear to have signs of aging unlike the Cranky villager, and could technically go anywhere from late 20s to early 40s.

[[folder: Sisterly]]
[[WMG: Sisterly]]
[[quoteright:241:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/uchi_2063.png]]
[[caption-width-right:241:Some examples of Sisterly villagers. Clockwise from top left: Canberra, Fuchsia, Sylvia, Muffy, Pashmina, Renée, Agnes, Tammy, and Cherry]]
One of the personalities introduced in ''New Leaf'', villagers with this personality are big sister types. They are a bunch of tough cookies, but they are very outgoing and friendly. They're very protective of their friends.
----
* {{Bifauxnen}}: Canberra.
* BigOlUnibrow: Hazel from ''New Leaf'' has one. Her catchphrase is even "Uni-WOW"!
* BearyFriendly: Some of them are bear villagers, such as Charlise.
* BullyHunter: These spunky ladies do not tolerate bullies, and tell you to know when to give up and never pick on anyone for no reason. They'll even want to know if you're pestered by anyone in town so they can beat them up.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Perhaps the most out there villagers ever. They seem to think that a "turf war" is literally just people throwing turf at each other. Also they have a stash of... well, everything. Especially humorous if one says they gave you a traffic cone from their stash of construction equipment. Also, they think doppelgänger is spelled "waffle hanger". Also they have bizarre dreams and salute potatoes.
* CoolBigSis: As rough as they can be, they're extremely protective of the PlayerCharacter, and will even give you medicine for free if you talk to them after being stung by a bee. Even if they're sick themselves. In ''New Horizons'' they instead provide you with the crafting recipe for medicine, but it's not really any less generous.
* CoolHelmet: Rocket, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
* CoolMask: Mira, one of the five superhero villagers, wears an orange superhero mask.
* CuteBruiser: They're all cute but one of the things they like to talk about openly is ''beating other people up''.
* DistaffCounterpart: To Cranky villagers, as both come across as InnocentlyInsensitive, but are caring and empathetic deep down. Both personality types wake up and go to bed at later times than other villagers. Sisterly villagers also share many traits with Jock villagers, such as their love of sports.
* ElegantGothicLolita: Muffy the sheep's design resembles this, with black wool, purple horns, makeup, and a pink scarf. Her home also has a bunch of rococo furniture and other fancy items.
* {{Fanservice}}: The cover of K.K. Disco features Fuschia in a [[BareYourMidriff crop top]] and short skirt. [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/animalcrossing/images/b/b9/AMF-AlbumArt-K.K._Disco.png/revision/latest?cb=20171113021025 No, really.]]
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Muffy. She's an ElegantGothicLolita who wears a headband with ribbons on it, a pink scarf (replaced with a fancy purple shirt in ''New Horizons''), and makeup, and her house's furnishings are very ornate, with a lot of furniture from the rococo series. However, she has the same tomboyish personality as other Sisterly villagers.
* GyaruGirl: Deidre looks like one.
* HotBlooded: It doesn't take much to anger them, and once they do, watch out!
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Similar to the Lazy villagers above, they can sometimes make other villagers cry by saying certain rude things that rub them the wrong way. Like saying a Lazy villager's catchphrase is "lame" for instance. They don't really mean what they say, however.
* TheLadette: Their favorite topics of conversation include getting into fights, playing sports, and getting into more fights.
* LastSecondWordSwap: Place a cool tent at your campsite in ''Pocket Camp'', and they'll note how the motorcycle reminds them of when they were living on the road and running away from the law-I mean, the LOBSTERS.
* LethalChef: Apparently one in New Horizons, where a conversation between one and a lazy villager can reveal it. The conversation goes from Lazy wanting the Sisterly villager to cook for them, to him [[INeedToGoIronMyDog saying that he'll be busy]] [[BrutalHonesty hiding from them]] on the day the Sisterly offers.
* MagicalGirl: Mira, with her color motif and English and Japanese names (Mirako) being a ShoutOut to [[{{Franchise/SailorMoon}} Sailor Venus]].
* MamaBear: They're very protective of their friends. Befriend them and they'll tell you that they'll gladly beat up anyone for you that's giving you trouble.
* NeatFreak: When visiting their houses or visiting yours, they often talk about cleaning methods.
* NightmareFetishist: Sorta justified for her being a phoenix, but Phoebe wishes to live in a house surrounded by fire in ''Happy Home Designer'', giving you campfires, torches, [[BreadEggsMilkSquick and]] gas pumps and gas cans... Making her seeming to be an arsonist...
* NotAMorningPerson: They wake up later than any other villager (11 AM by default), and are still a little sleepy when they get up.
* PassionateSportsGirl: May randomly ask the PlayerCharacter how they would rate themselves at some sort of sport, saying that she's going to try to organize a town tournament.
* PerkyGoth: Muffy the sheep evokes this with her appearance contrasting with her personality. Her birthday is also Valentine's Day and her default catchphrase is "nightshade".
* ThePhoenix: While Phoebe is technically an ostrich, her name, catchphrase and appearance make it quite clear that she's actually a phoenix.
* {{Retcon}}: Like Smug above, some villagers such as Charlise and Sylvia (originally Peppy and Snooty respectively) were changed into this personality in ''New Leaf''.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: They may like beating people up, but they are mainly violently protective of the Player Character because they see them as a younger sibling. They even admit in letters "deep emotional stuff isn't usually their thing". Suuuure.
* {{Tomboy}}: They tend to have more "out there" designs than other female villagers, are interested in sports, and are generally fairly rough-and-tumble. One of the petitions a Sisterly villager may ask you to gather signatures for is called "Tomboys Are People Too."
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: They sometimes mention that they absolutely love potatoes and can eat them in any format.
* WalkingTechBane: They may claim to be this if they visit the player's house and see a computer in it.

[[folder: Lazy]]
[[WMG: Lazy]]
[[quoteright:207:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lazy2.png]]
[[caption-width-right:207:Some examples of Lazy villagers. Clockwise from top left: Punchy, Beau, Joey, Simon, Hugh, Jeremiah, Walker, Clyde, and Puck]]
Lazy villagers are just in it to have a good time. They love long naps, good food, and a party every once in a while. They may subtly flirt with the female players. They're easygoing and tend to be agreeable. Some of the more HotBlooded types may be annoyed by their slow pace, but relax... they're just doing what they do best. Chill.
----
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: Although "child" maybe an overstatement here due to their vague age, but they're implied to be the youngest out of all the villager personalities and they tend to act like prepubescent children trying to act all grown up.
* {{Adorkable}}: Especially in the first game. One of them, Derwin, takes this UpToEleven. Bob is another example of an Adorkable Lazy Villager, sleeping with a night light, having near child-like innocence, and even crying a river when he's feeling sad. Aww...
* AmbiguouslyBi: The fact they want to sleep in the same bed as you regardless of gender, think you're stealthy like a ninja, and admit you have hands perfect for shaking trees while the "dreamy" heart appears over their head during both leaves very little to the imagination. But given the NoHuggingNoKissing rules of Animal Crossing they don't go much farther.
* {{Bambification}}: Beau and Erik, the lazy deer villagers.
* BigEater: Half the time they talk about eating. If they are present at someone's birthday, they'll remark about wanting to eat the cake.
* BerserkButton: ''Wild World'' only. It is very rare for a lazy villager to get angry. But they will when they talk about how another villager called them a bug.
--> '''Lazy:''' That big meanie (villager name) called me a pesky little bug! What's the big deal!? So I ate a (food item)! Or SIX! Whatever! So I guess if a guy enjoys life, he is a bug. Lame, (catchphrase)!
** Also, don't call them cute. Or they'll be pretty upset for a bit, then accept the compliment.
* ButtMonkey: Not as much as the Cranky villagers, but they are often gossiped about by the Snooty villagers... and not in a good way.
* {{Camp}}: Papi's catchphrase is "haaay". Granted, he's a horse, but there's no way the English localization team didn't have the CampGay stereotype in mind when they decided on that one.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In earlier versions of the series (at least in the English localizations) the character archetype was loosely implied to be a collection of [[CoolOldGuy cool and wacky old guys]], with their [[ScatterbrainedSenior silliness being explained by their age]] and their laziness implying the SeniorSleepCycle. Later editions re-imagined their childish personalities as being literal childishness, now re-framed to be the youngest villager type. Minor details were changed on certain villagers along with this (such as altering the shading of Doc's mouth so it doesn't resemble a mustache as much) to make their age vague on the other end of the spectrum.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: If it doesn't involve eating or sleeping, it probably doesn't reach Planet Lazy. Sometimes they can say outright weird things like how they had a dream about rock climbing [[TooDumbToLive in a sauna]] and the player character saved them. They aren't dumb, just childishly naive.
* CoolHelmet: Big Top, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
** Puck, a penguin who wears a blue hockey helmet, and in ''New Horizons'', he gets a jersey to go with it.
* CryCute: Sometimes they'll do this when someone accidentally hurts their feelings.
* TheCutie: And how! These guys will cry at the drop of a hat, are nothing but nice to everyone (with occasional moments of being insensitive), and are downright adorable. Plus they act like little kids which only adds to the cuteness. Beau's description in ''Pocket Camp'' even references this.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Bob, a male Lazy pink cat, whose default shirt looks more like a dress and has a strange knowledge of fashion.
** There's also Filbert, a male Lazy blue squirrel, who not only looks rather effeminate, but also wears a white and pink floral dress as his default shirt in every game he appears in, up until ''New Leaf'' (where it was changed to a black and white checkerboard patterned shirt).
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Beau's description in ''Pocket Camp'' mentions how everyone can't help but [[{{Pun}} fawn]] over him, due to his status as TheCutie.
* EruditeStoner: Bob may rival K.K. Slider in this regard having his eyes constantly narrowed in a "chill" way.
* FaceOfAThug: Rodeo is a black bull with red eyes, giving him an extremely intimidating appearance. But being a Lazy villager, he's a big softie.
* GuestFighter: And the only 3rd party one, a Felyne from ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter''.
* HeavySleeper: The other half they talk about napping. They also wake up at 9:00am and go to sleep at 11:00pm, which is longer than other villager types.
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Big Top, an elephant of this type, seems to be one of these.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: They're so carefree that they sometimes don't realize the implications of what they're saying. Take this conversation in ''Wild World'' for example:
--> '''Lazy:''' Yesterday, I had the most amazing dream. I was this HUGE movie star! And I got invited to all these parties! There were all these famous actresses, and we all ate sponge cake together! By the way, you were in my dream, too.\\
'''Normal:''' Goodness! Really? Was I a famous actress, too?\\
'''Lazy:''' Actually, you were in the kitchen cooking the sponge cake. Yeah, you were really sweating up a storm! Yep. As usual, you were the star of the party!\\
'''Normal:''' I guess I could take that as a compliment... Yeah, if I were a total idiot! You're a stupid, sexist jerk! And I thought we were friends!
** And this exchange from ''New Leaf'':
--> '''Normal:''' What did you want to talk about, <Lazy>?\\
'''Lazy:''' You're a neat freak, aren't you, <Normal>? Sorry my place is such a mess. I bet just being here is giving you the urge to start cleaning, huh?\\
'''Normal:''' Excuse me?! You invited me here to clean your house?! Um, RUDE! Wait a sec. Your place is actually pretty clean. It looks like you're the one who's a neat freak!
** Filbert, specifically, is noted to be this in his ''Pocket Camp'' bio.
* {{Keet}}: Excitable, cute, and always looking for fun as long as it doesn't interrupt with their sleep schedule. They'll also talk about how much they love eating with a smile on their face.
* LiesDamnedLiesAndStatistics: PlayedForLaughs in ''New Leaf'' in one of the possible ways a Lazy villager may propose a Public Works Project. Their opening statement in this case is that studies show that the desired project could up their town's "coolness factor" by an absurdly large percentage. And then they [[LampshadeHanging admit they just made the number up]].
* LivingToys: Stitches, who looks like an old worn-out teddy bear that came to life. There's also Hopkins, a rabbit who has an air hole sticking out of the back of his head which suggests that he's an inflatable pool toy of some sort.
* ManChild: They may be adults, but they are mentally prepubescent kids. Cranky villagers outright state that they're still kids. But then again that may have been figurative [[note]] possibly implying that they're kids compared to their own age. Or the fact much older people tend to see even 20 year olds as "still kids" [[/note]]
* MommasBoy: If you write them letters frequently, they'll say they got one letter from you and ''nine'' from their mother. One must wonder how overprotective their mother is to send them a total of 9 letters each day.
* {{Nerd}}: Sometimes they'll approach you and ask you to define how old a "grown up" is. If you answer 40, they'll say they want to spend their older days buying comic books and video games.
* NerdGlasses: Derwin the bespectacled duck.
* NiceGuy: They're the nicest and easiest villagers to befriend. They're also the least likely villagers to move out of your town.
* NiceHat: Boomer, a penguin who wears an aviator's hat and goggles, and in ''New Horizons'', gets a matching jacket.
* NoodleIncident: Nobody knows why Lucky is completely covered in bandages, but one possible explanation states that it had to do with "a bizarre fishing accident involving a hook and two bass."
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Drago, while technically an alligator, is very clearly meant to be a dragon based on his name, appearance and catchphrase.
* SignatureLaugh: "A huh huh huh!"
* TheSlacker: Their most defining trait.
* {{Sleepyhead}}: Though Lazy villagers are known for how much they sleep, Sherb, a goat introduced in ''New Horizons'', takes this UpToEleven, with his poster depicting him sleeping in his pajamas, and his ''Pocket Camp'' bio stating that he believes that nothing's quite like a good night's sleep, adding that though he's very particular about his bedtime gear, he can doze off just about anywhere.
* SpearCounterpart: To Normal villagers.
* StalkerWithACrush: Depending on the game, they can get a little obsessive towards the player if befriended. In ''Wild World'', they'll admit to sneaking into the player's house and sleeping on their floor. Inviting them to your house in ''New Leaf'' may have them remark about wanting to sleep in the same bed with you, with all that that would imply.
* StayInTheKitchen: When a Normal Villager comes over, they'll imply they want them to clean their house, and in Wild World, when telling a Normal Villager about a dream they had, they'll say the Normal Villager was cooking sponge cake for them.
* TokenEvilTeammate: It's hinted that the elephant villager Big Top is this to the five superhero villagers, as his catchphrase is "villain" and his ''Wild World'' picture quote is "World domination!" However, "villain" could simply reference his superhero charm, and he is just as nice to the player as any other lazy villager is.
* VagueAge: Probably the hardest villagers to tell what age they are. They act like prepubescent children, but live on their own, presumably make money, etc. Possible dialogue you may hear from one while shopping in ''Happy Home Designer'' has him identifying himself as "an adult" ([[GrowingUpSucks and hating it]]). ''New Horizons'' gives them a soft and childish-sounding voice, adding further confusion.
** Earliest editions of the series hinted that they may have actually been conceived as a [[CoolOldGuy friendly elderly and retired group of villagers]] (See ''Characterization Marches On'' above).

[[folder: Jock]]
[[WMG: Jock]]
[[quoteright:206:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jock_7866.png]]
[[caption-width-right:206:Some examples of Jock villagers. Clockwise from top left: Bam, Poncho, Goose, Snake, Kid Cat, Teddy, Jay, Axel, and Rod]]
Do you feel the ''burn,'' baby? The Sporty type is always looking for ways to buff their manly bod. They're always looking for the next big event, and if there isn't one coming up, they'll create one! They love to get people pumped up. Note that, unlike the [[JerkJock jocks at your school]], these guys are nice and liked by most.
----
* {{Acrofatic}}: Some species in the game, such as elephants and pigs, are designed with a noticeably chubby frame. So ones assigned the athletic Jock personality are essentially this.
* {{Adorkable}}: They'll go on tangents sometimes about how they're actually a sensitive, misunderstood guy and cry in front of the player. They may also cry TearsOfJoy upon seeing the player character again if the game has not been played for a very long time.
* AmbiguouslyGay: They really like buff construction workers to the point of almost fainting when they mention their physique. They also start swooning at the thought of [[EvenTheGuysWantHim Cyrus]].
* AwesomeMcCoolname: Kid Cat.
* BigBrotherMentor: They tend to act like this towards the player when befriended.
* BookDumb: Although they aren't ''that'' dumb. Just a little slow-witted. Jay, a Jock bluebird, is surprisingly clever, uses words like "tenacity" and "sublime" while apparently knowing what those words mean, and judging from his house, is a musician, so he's an aversion; Teddy, a Jock bear, also has a bookshelf in his house. They actually write pretty deep letters considering and are more BookDumb than actually stupid. A lot of these jocks end up actually just dumb in math and pretty smart in other things, as they will ask the player character for help with a math problem to which a Normal villager will get upset if the PC gives the right answer saying that he can't rely on his friends to solve all his math problems in life.
* CasanovaWannabe: They had shades of this in the Gamecube version, but this is no longer the case in the sequels.
* CoolHelmet: Kid Cat, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
** Sterling, an eagle who wears a silver knight's helmet with matching greaves.
** Scoot, a duck who wears a white hockey helmet.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Dom, the new Jock villager from ''New Horizons'', is a pastel pink sheep with a feminine face who wears a rainbow tie-dye shirt. Many fans mistook him for a girl when his render was first released.
* EpicFail: In ''New Leaf'', during a conversation with Normal villagers, they can't even get simple math problems correct without the player's help.
* {{Flanderization}}: After the [[UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube GameCube]] game, they become a lot more sport obsessed. Taken UpToEleven in ''New Horizons'', where nearly every single conversation involves sports, muscles, or fitness.
* FriendlessBackground: Implied in a conversation with them, once you really get to know them, they'll say they're lucky to have friends at all.
* GuestFighter: Inkwell, an octopus who loves anything ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''-related.
* HiddenDepths: Some of their conversations imply that they aren't that obsessed with working out as they like to make themselves out to be. Also, some of them have an interest in dinosaurs. There's also the fact they watch Soap Operas. They even say at one point if they're the "newbie" in the town in New Leaf they are generally very shy, giving them some introverted jock traits.
* HotBlooded: Be careful how you answer some of their questions (especially in the GCN version). They can be rather... TESTY, from time to time.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: A conversation in ''New Leaf'' involves a Jock villager accidentally making a Normal villager cry when he runs out of things to talk to her about and asks the PlayerCharacter for help, and she thinks that means that he thinks she's boring. The Jock villager tries to comfort her by saying that he was just nervous and the Normal villager instantly cheers up. They may also upset Lazy villagers when they try to get them to be more active.
* {{Keet}}: They're very excitable and fun, which just makes them even more adorable. ''New Leaf'' turns it up a notch by giving Jocks the highest pitched voice out of all the male villagers and really fleshing out their excitable nature a lot more.
* LovableJock: Unlike [[JerkJock the jocks at your school]], these guys are very friendly and have a good heart.
* MaskedLuchador: Stinky.
* MommasBoy: Not nearly to the extent of the Lazy Villagers, but if you wake them up early, they might say "Five more minutes... Pleaaaaase Mommy!".
* NiceHat: Rod, a mouse who wears a white/blue striped bandanna. In ''New Horizons'', he gets a matching tank top.
* NightmareFetishist: Genji, who wants to live in a house perfect to tell ghost stories in if you take his request in Happy Home Designer. It includes skeletons and many of the things you'd need to make a horror place.
* {{Ninja}}: Snake, a rabbit who wears a ninja hood, and whose ''Pocket Camp'' bio calls him this. ''Pocket Camp'' and ''New Horizons'' gives him a matching ninja costume.
* NoIndoorVoice: Chances are a conversation with a Jock villager will lead to them yelling loudly for whatever reason. One of their greetings just has them yelling "Hi!" directly at the player character's face. Lazy villagers call them out on it and complain they're too loud even while they try to talk normally.
* NotSoDifferent: See entry under Normal Villagers.
* OccidentalOtaku: Genji. Prior to ''New Horizons'', his catchphrase was even "otaku".
* RedIsHeroic: Kid Cat, one of the five superhero villagers, whose outfit is primarily red.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Ribbot the robot frog. Despite his appearance, he gets hungry, drinks coffee, and can even ''get fleas'' like the rest of the animals.
** The same can be said for Sprocket the robot ostrich.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: In ''New Leaf'', they sometimes report asking a male and female villager who are close "How are the lovebirds doing?", resulting in this.
* ShipperOnDeck: Think Peppy and Cranky villagers would make a good couple.
** They may also mention instances where they've seen two villagers getting along closely and asked, "How are the two lovebirds doing?" Apparently, they just laugh, leading to the Jock villager's embarrassment.
* ShoutOutToShakespeare: {{Theatre/Hamlet}} [[PunnyName the hamster.]] For bonus points, his picture quote is ''"The ear's the thing."''
* SpearCounterpart: Most comparable to Peppy villagers, both being energetic and, as of New Leaf, having the highest pitched voice of their respective genders. Sisterly villagers also share their love of sports.
* StoutStrength: As noted in {{Acrofatic}} above, some species types are notably chubby, and the Jock lineup includes villagers of these species. Roald's bio in ''Pocket Camp'' lampshades this, saying he "packs a lot of muscle into that tiny, round body."
* SurferDude: They tend to talk like this sometimes, dude.
* TookALevelInKindness: They weren't exactly ''mean'' in the original game, but later installments would give them more depth, and they'd be a lot less rude at times. They still laugh at your misfortune should the player get stung by a bee, but it's a far cry from what they used to be like.
** UpToEleven in ''New Horizons'', where they are always warm and friendly when it comes to the player, as well as looking out for them and giving them advice for a healthy lifestyle. Even before being friends, they will sometimes regard the player as [[FriendlyRivalry their favorite rival]].
* ToiletHumor: They sneeze often and remark about how something may have gone flying towards you.
* UnusualEuphemism:
** When they lose a game of hide-and-seek: "Aw, barbells!"
** When giving them perfect fruit to eat: "'''''YUMMAHUMMA!'''''"
* VerbalTic: Dude, whenever they use it. Also "bro" and other "hip" variants such as brozinsky, brosky and so on.

[[folder: Cranky]]
[[WMG: Cranky]]
[[quoteright:232:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cranky_8468.png]]
[[caption-width-right:232:Some examples of Cranky villagers. Clockwise from top left: Wolfgang, Vladimir, Roscoe, Octavian, Knox, Butch, Apollo, Harry, and Gaston]]
Implied to be the oldest of the townsfolk, the Cranky villagers are hard to warm up to, sarcastic, and snarky. However, it might be that they just don't connect with the other townspeople due to being somewhat older. Befriend them, and they reveal their HiddenHeartOfGold. Surprisingly, they get along well with some of the other villagers--but not all.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Ganon appears thanks to amiibo support. He may be Cranky, but he's still certainly nicer than his version from the original games.
* {{Bishonen}}: Chief and Fang have the effeminate face and poses down pat, and Rooney looks like a character from a sports anime.
* BlatantBurgler: Rizzo the mouse has the Japanese version of this look, wearing [[StealthClothes a purple handkerchief tied around his head]]. On top of that, his ''Happy Home Designer'' request is "a hideout".
* BoxingKangaroo: Both Cranky kangaroos (and the only male kangaroos in the series as-of ''New Leaf'') evoke this imagery to some extent - Rooney is a more overt example, having boxing gloves and a house filled with training equipment and a boxing ring, while Walt has no such theme to his design but boasts HandwrapsOfAwesome.
* ChessMotifs: Roscoe is a black horse who has a checkerboard shirt. His house contains the Modern series of furniture, which also has a checked pattern.
* CoolHelmet: Knox, a chicken who wears a golden knight's helmet with matching greaves.
** Vic, a bull who wears a viking helmet.
* CoolOldGuy: Not as old as most examples, but implied to be older than the other villages and the player character.
* DeadpanSnarker: ''Especially'' in ''City.''
* FaceOfAThug: They give out an intimidating mien and often have rough appearances that cause other people to get frightened of them, which they lament over. Although it becomes something of an InformedAttribute when someone like [[http://images.wikia.com/animalcrossing/images/f/f0/Tom_NewLeaf_Official.png Tom]] says this.
* FriendlessBackground: Implied to not have very many friends outside of the villagers in your town and the Player Character. Probably because of their gruff disposition.
* GoKartingWithBowser: Ganon may have tried to destroy Hyrule multiple times, but in ''New Leaf'', you can convince him to move into your town, befriend him, and give him fruit and butterflies, if you so choose.
* GrumpyOldMan: The personality, although they don't seem to be ''drastically'' older than the other characters. ''New Leaf'' gives us this gem of dialogue: "The night is still young, though [[SelfDeprecation I am definitely not]], (catchphrase)!"
* GuestFighter: Ganon, the king of evil and recurring BigBad from ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series.
* HandwrapsOfAwesome: Walt has these, fitting with his rugged appearance and [[BoxingKangaroo his species' reputation]].
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: ''Despite'' their grump and snark, they do warm up to you. Croque takes this further for having his default CatchPhrase say "as if". Also they do remember pranking a girl and feeling bad for her back when they were a young lad.
* LikeASonToMe: Befriended Cranky villagers give off a fatherly personality towards the player characters in later installments.
* MayDecemberRomance: Sometimes they'll hang out with a Peppy villager to the point of Jock villagers shipping them. If it's truly love and they actually are as old as they seem to imply, then this is probably the trope to use.
* MoralityPet: The aforementioned Peppy villagers, Lazy villagers, and even Normal villagers all get along with them.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In ''New Leaf'', like Snooty villagers, if they make another villager angry in conversation, they sometimes get sad.
* TheNightOwl: They go to sleep later than other villagers and also wake up later.
* NotAMorningPerson: Cranky villagers wake up at 10 AM by default, later than all the other types of villagers except Sisterly in ''New Leaf''.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Vladimir is a pink bear cub who's apparently the oldest person in town.
* PetTheDog: They surprisingly get along well with Lazy villagers, who look up to them. Not to mention Ganon, the remorseless King of Evil, can be one of these guys which makes it all the more hilarious if he's nice to a lazy villager. Or nice to Wolf Link or Medli.
* PungeonMaster: Rocco, according to his ''New Leaf'' [[AllThereInTheManual April Fool's stats]] and ''Pocket Camp'' in-game bio.
* RealMenWearPink: Vladimir, who's a pink cub.
* SignatureLaugh: "GAHAHA!" In one of their conversations with Lazy villagers, they even try to convince the Lazy villager to change their SignatureLaugh into their own. Ganon's catchphrase is "heh heh".
* SpearCounterpart: In ''New Leaf'', with their rough exterior, yet caring hidden side, they are now considered the male equivalent to Sisterly villagers, and both are also stubborn and opinionated. Before this, they were compared to Snooty villagers.
* StealthPun: Apollo the bald eagle's birthday is on the [[UsefulNotes/AmericanHolidays Fourth of July]].
* TookALevelInKindness: Zigzagged in between installments. They became less grouchy in ''Wild World'', but then they were made more snarky in ''City Folk''. Come ''New Leaf'', they're significantly less grumpy and more approachable, albeit a little rough at first.
** In ''New Horizons'', they even outright mention that they may seem scary, but they'll always be welcoming to those that they've taken a liking to when first introducing themselves.
* VagueAge: Act like old men, but could be anywhere from their early thirties to late sixties. This is especially weird with Murphy and Vladimir, who are both apparently middle-aged ''cubs'' (i.e., baby bears).

[[folder: Smug]]
[[WMG: Smug]]
[[quoteright:243:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/smug_1912.png]]
[[caption-width-right:243:Some examples of Smug villagers. Clockwise from top left: Zell, Marshal, Olaf, Julian, Beardo, Shep, Chops, Eugene, and Quillson]]
One of the personalities introduced in ''New Leaf'', villagers with this personality act gentlemanly and are easy to get along with, but as their name suggests, can get quite insufferable at times.
----
* {{Adorkable}}: Yep, even these guys. They say stay out of their closets because they have their baby toys and clothes in it, giving them some similarities to Lazy villagers. They also cry often when you write them a good letter.
* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: Hans is a gorilla with white fur and a winter-themed house which suggest that he's a well-dressed yeti.
* {{Bishonen}}: Some of them were designed with this in mind, such as Marshal, Julian, and Colton. Ken is also rather pretty for a rooster, given he wears what appears to be mascara around his eyes and has a Bishie Ninja look to him, while Olaf looks like a love interest from a 70's shojo manga. Then there's Leopold and Ed [[RetCon who were originally jocks]].
* BiTheWay: They will quite shamelessly flirt and show strong affection for the player character and other villagers regardless of gender. Especially shown in the fact when one of them might forget to return an item from a Jock villager, and adds a card on the present that leaves very little to the imagination basically saying "I'm sorry I forgot to give this to you, do you still love me?" The Jock villagers, being rather ambiguous about [[AmbiguouslyGay their preference]] themselves will naturally be flattered and start blushing.
* BlankWhiteEyes: The villager Julian, [[EyesAlwaysShut who’s eyes are usually always shut]], has this whenever he opens them if surprised.
* BlindingBangs: Shep, a dog that looks like a sheepdog, has a mop of hair covering his eyes.
* [[CampGay Camp Bi]]: Suffice to say they like to flaunt their flamboyancy including flirting with the player, talking about how certain pleasurable activities such as watching fish is "romantic" and so on.
* CartoonCheese: Chadder, a [[{{Irony}} mouse]] who looks like he's made of it.
* CasanovaWannabe: Flirts with the PlayerCharacter (and sometimes other villagers), but [[NoHuggingNoKissing it never goes anywhere]], [[BestialityIsDepraved for obvious reasons]].
* CloudCuckooLander: Most of the smug villagers are this on a mild level. Among them, Julian's ''Pocket Camp'' bio in particular makes note of his eccentricities.
---> Julian's always been a little wild and free-spirited. Hey, if you were born with a horn on your head for some inexplicable reason, you'd be an oddball too.
* ConMan: On days when Redd is in town, they will try to sell you a painting that is almost always fake for a ridiculous amount of bells. [[SubvertedTrope However]], sometimes if you agree to the trade, they might end up feeling so bad that they charged such a high price that they just give the painting to you for free.
* CoolOldGuy: A few of them sport facial hair and designs which lend them a certain older gentlemanly flair, most notably Lionel, a lion with a white BadassMustache and mane.
* TheDandy: Care much more about their appearance than the other male villager types.
* {{Flanderization}}: In ''New Horizons'', Smug villagers are notably more full of themselves than in ''New Leaf''.
* {{Gonk}}: As one can tell from looking at the image, if a smug villager is not a {{bishonen}}, he is this. There is little in between.
* {{Greaser Delinquent|s}}: Eugene the koala is designed to look like one of these, with black fur that looks like sideburns, CoolShades that [[SunglassesAtNight he wears at all times]], his default shirt being a leather jacket, and his default catchphrase being "yeah buddy". All he lacks is the actual attitude.
* GuestFighter: Wolf Link, Link's wolf form from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess''. It's highly amusing that someone who is famous for being portrayed as a stoic HeroicMime is given this personality.
* {{Hipster}}: They're always trying out obscure trends and trying to stay out of the norm, which some of the other villagers find irritating. In fact, some of their dialogue can be considered a TakeThat at hipsters.
* InLoveWithLove: Their dialogue at The Roost implies this.
* InsistentTerminology: They insist that they're ''enthusiasts'', not geeks. [[ClosetGeek Because geeks aren't cool.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: Though Smug villagers aren't mean, really, just madly in love with themselves.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: One potential conversation a Smug villager may have with a Lazy villager has the former offering the latter a lesson in cooking pasta. As the conversation goes on, however, it becomes clear that the Lazy villager is far more knowledgeable on the matter while the Smug villager remains confident in what he's saying.
* LargeHam: Absolutely this, most notably when they describe a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to a Lazy villager in the most unnecessarily drawn out and descriptive way possible. They tend to be quite theatrical with their dialogue in general.
* MismatchedEyes: Raymond, the cat introduced in ''New Horizons'', has complete heterochromia iridum, with his left eye being green and his right eye being brown. He is the only character with this trait.
* NerdGlasses: Graham the hamster, Leopold the lion, and Raymond the cat sport these, though they suit them fairly well.
* NiceGuy: Despite being called "smug", they're actually one of the friendliest villager types and rarely have anything mean to say. They can be quite full of themselves, however.
* NiceHat: Jacques, a bird who wears a green knit cap.
** O'Hare, a rabbit who wears a straw top hat with black trim.
* NonIronicClown: Pietro is a clown sheep, but he has a jolly appearance and is as friendly as any other villager of his type.
* PrincelyYoungMan: Colton seems to invoke this with a snobby manedo and royal attire. He even bows on his amiibo card!
* RailEnthusiast: They may sometimes go on a tangent about the previous models of trains used in the town train station... much to their own embarrassment once they realize it.
* {{Retcon}}: Some villagers such as Ed, Kidd and O'Hare (originally a Jock, Lazy and Cranky respectively) were changed into this personality on the transition to ''New Leaf''.
* OccidentalOtaku: They also show interest to anime, such as when they start complaining about the fact that anime songs aren't played in your town's club. In ''Happy Home Designer'' they talk about marathoning anime and say that manga is superior to western comics. Then we come to Ken, who's basically either a rooster of Japanese descent or this. His name is arguably even a reference to Shuriken, a type of Japanese throwing star.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Some take to calling themselves "geniuses" and call themselves names like "Beardo of the Red Rose" to show how suave they think they are.
* SmugSnake: Well, ''duh.'' They aren't mean, though.
* SpearCounterpart: To Snooty villagers, as both are a little vain.
* {{Unicorn}}: Julian, supposedly a horse, has a horn.

[[WMG: All of them]]
* FourTemperamentEnsemble:

** Chloeric: Cranky (Male)/Snooty (Female)
** Melancholic: Smug (Male)/Sisterly (Female)
** Phlegmatic: Lazy (Male)/Normal (Female)
* SleevesAreForWimps: They're not really the "tough guy" type per se[[note]]except for Jocks, obviously, and maybe Cranky villagers[[/note]], but villagers will always wear their shirts sleeveless, even if the shirt they are wearing is long-sleeved. Averted in ''New Horizons'', as villagers can finally wear the sleeves that come with their shirt or dress.
[[/folder]]
!!!Female
[[folder: Normal]]
[[WMG: Normal]]
[[quoteright:260:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/normal-ac_1690.png]]
[[caption-width-right:260:Some examples of Normal villagers. Clockwise from top left: Caroline, Kitt, Goldie, Marina, Nana, Merengue, Lolly, Bettina, and Aurora]]
Normal villagers are just that... normal. Unlike the people around them, who tend to be a little... ''extreme'' in one way or another, Normal villagers are soft-spoken, pleasant ladies whom it's nice to have on your side. They get along with just about everyone. In ''Wild World,'' though, they were known for being a little bit... [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} out there.]]
----
* {{Adorkable}}: They seem to be the token female geek of Animal Crossing. Also their introverted and shy nature makes them this.
* AnimeChineseGirl: Pekoe, a bear cub villager of this type.
* BewareTheNiceOnes:
** They're some of the nicest villagers in the series, but they can say some surprisingly cutting things if they're angered.
** {{Discussed|Trope}} in ''New Leaf''; the reason a Lazy villager will ask you to [[FetchQuest return an item]] they forgot they had to a Normal villager is because they're scared of them when they're mad.
* BerserkButton: Don't call them a neat freak or tell them to StayInTheKitchen. Lazy villagers find that out the hard way.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: In ''Wild World,'' they picked up a bit of a loopy streak, especially with regards to "Moppina." They seem to be back to their old selves in ''City.'' They still have a bit of a loopy streak because they stick their heads in dry laundry often. In ''New Leaf'', they might mention that they were writing a poem about a salt shaker or want to bake a cake in the shape of a pocket knife. According to a few time capsule letters, they'll also sleep in seemingly dangerous appliances such as a dryer. [[SchmuckBait Hopefully not with them on.]]
** NotSoAboveItAll: Often in random conversations they will say how they were pressing flower petals together in books and mistook them for tea leaves which they then served to a Snooty villager. Perhaps they're only "Normal" compared to everyone else?
* CompanionCube: In ''Wild World,'' they claim to be "best friends" with, err, a mop named Moppina. According to WordOfGod, this is meant to reflect on their slightly obsessive natures and their secret fears about germs and being judged for the state of their household. Makes you wonder what their childhoods must have been like...
* CoolMask: Filly, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
* CuteBookworm: One of their favorite hobbies is reading. They might get too excited sometimes when they talk about books to other people, which they then get embarrassed over. In ''Happy Home Designer'', your first real client is Goldie, and she naturally wants an interior remodel for a room filled with books.
* CuteClumsyGirl: Often prone to losing things and a tad scatterbrained. Shown in a letter where they'll sometimes randomly forget what they were about to talk to you about and are the most likely to lose "lost items".
* DistaffCounterpart: To Lazy villagers.
* TheGenericGirl: Their defining personality trait is their ''lack'' of crazy. Well, except in ''Wild World.''
%%* GirlNextDoor
* GranolaGirl: They think about making the world a better place and talking about the environment. They especially like to talk whenever you see them with a watering can how they want to fill the world with flowers.
* GuestFighter: Two, actually. There's Medli, a rito girl from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker'', and Viché, a squirrel who cosplays Marie from ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''.
* HypocriticalHumor: In ''New Leaf'', they sometimes talk about how silly it is to think wrinkles in clothing are "the end of the world", before saying stains are.
* NeatFreak: In ''Wild World'', they're so obsessed with cleanliness that their best friend is a mop. They still show signs of this in later games.
* NiceGirl: They're one of the easiest villagers to befriend, and are also one of the least likely to move out.
* NotSoDifferent: In a conversation with Jock villagers regarding their respective interests in reading and exercise, they may conclude this about each other. "You prefer to exercise your body, and I prefer to exercise my mind."
* OnlySaneMan: Marina's ''Wild World'' picture quote [[note]]I think I'm the only sane one in this town[[/note]] even references this!
* PandaingToTheAudience: Pekoe is a cub clearly meant to look like a panda.
* ShrinkingViolet: Most of the time they're quiet and soft spoken.
* SpotOfTea: Tia, a white elephant introduced in ''New Leaf'', whose head resembles a teapot. Her catchphrase is "teacup", and her picture quote is "tea is a cup of life".
* SternTeacher: They're this in Happy Home Designer if you visit the school and they're the teacher.
-->'''Normal Teacher:''' Don't come into my classroom if you're not ready to do some serious schoolwork. / (Sighing) I KNOW I've got a reputation as a really tough taskmaker, [[ForYourOwnGood but that's only because I care, OK?]]
* SuperOCD: They have a mop they "talk" to named Moppina and are embarrassed whenever you come over. Perhaps they're worried the player will judge them.
* SweetTooth: Megan, a bear introduced in ''New Horizons''. Her Japanese name is Candy, her catchphrase is "sundae", she holds a lollipop in her poster, and her ''Pocket Camp'' bio notes how much she loves sweets, to the point that she only allows herself to partake in them after she finishes her daily chores so that she doesn't overindulge.
* {{Tsundere}}: Sweet type. They're really easy to befriend, but they can get quite annoyed at Lazy and Jock villagers. See the below conversation between a Normal and Lazy villager under InnocentlyInsensitive below.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Peppy]]
[[WMG: Peppy]]
[[quoteright:239:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/peppy_9407.png]]
[[caption-width-right:239:Some examples of Peppy villagers. Clockwise from top left: Twiggy, Pango, Chrissy, Bubbles, Pompom, Winnie, Patty, Rosie, and Bluebear]]
Like, ohmigosh! Peppy villagers are, like, those one girls, you know, like, the ones who live in California? I forget what they call them, but, like, they're always energetic and interested in fashion and stuff! And they, like, use "Like" a lot? Whatever--they're always, like, full of energy, so, like, they really love doing stuff!
----
* BlueIsHeroic: Agent S, one of the five superhero villagers, has blue as her primary color.
* BreakoutCharacter: Of all the villagers, Rosie is the most prominent in media. She has received a starring role in the movie, appears in Villager's reveal trailer, received several pieces of merchandise, has a space in Nintendo Monopoly and a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' (the latter two no other villager does).
* BuffySpeak: If you get their coffee order perfect in ''New Leaf'', they may respond with "OMG! This smells, like, supremely nommy!"
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: They've been known to burn juice. How do you burn juice?
* CoolHelmet: Agent S, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
* CoolShades: Audie, a peppy wolf introduced in ''New Horizons'', has these.
* DistaffCounterpart: To the equally energetic Jock villagers.
* TheDitz: When you talk to them in their house, they may tell you about how they lost all of their socks, only to find them ''in the freezer''. [[CaptainObvious And now their feet are cold.]]
* EpicFail: Within their house, they may remark that they've been known to burn water. How do you burn water?!
* GenkiGirl: Oh, ''so'' much.
* GoshDangItToHeck: Many of their pictures have {{Unusual Euphemism}}s of this sort written on them, like "SHRIEKING SUGARCUBES!"
* GuestFighter: Epona, Link's horse that debuted in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'', and Cece, a squirrel who cosplays Callie from ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''.
* ItsAllAboutMe: A friendly version of this. ''New Leaf'' makes their behavior more narcissistic, with them loving attention and thinking of themselves as having lots of fans.
%%* {{Kawaiiko}}
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The Light Feminine to the Snooty characters' Dark Feminine. While the peppy villagers are bubbly, nice and energetic, the Snooty characters are vainer and do not get along as easily with other characters. Further exemplified with the rabbits Chrissy (peppy) and Francine (snooty), who wear the Lite Polka Tee and Dark Polka Tee respectively.
* LikeIsLikeAComma: Being, essentially, animal {{Valley Girl}}s.
* PerkyGoth: Bella has a hint of this; she's a normal Peppy villager, but her default shirt has a ''flaming skull'' on it and [[{{Metalhead}} she plays K.K. Metal in her home if she has a stereo]].
* StepfordSmiler: Merry. She goes beyond being Peppy to the point of smiling at all times, even during her "angry" and "sad" animations and dialogue.
* {{Tsundere}}: Sweet, especially to Lazy villagers who often argue with them. Can also be this to Jock villagers, who are often hanging around with them.
* ValleyGirl: Their interests plus the way they speak show them this way.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Snooty]]
[[WMG: Snooty]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snooty_9426.png]]
[[caption-width-right:300:Some examples of Snooty villagers. Clockwise from top left: Portia, Yuka, Velma, Astrid, Mint, Olivia, Francine, Mallary, and Freya]]
Snooty characters aren't ''nasty,'' exactly, but they definitely have a highfalutin' attitude. They have a tendency to rub others the wrong way. That said, they're not totally heartless -- in fact, if befriended, they can be quite nice. They have a taste for the finer things in life and high standards, though. In New Leaf especially they're not as mean as they used to be and are actually quite friendly to other villagers and especially the player.
----
* {{Adorkable}}: They've been given this trait in ''New Leaf'' along with CloudCuckoolander. The fact that they squee when you give them a good present is also enough to be in this trope.
* AncientEgypt: Ankha the cat, who looks like a typical pharaoh and has an Egyptian-themed house.
* BigBeautifulWoman: Naomi tries to invoke this on her amiibo card.
* CloudCuckoolander: In ''New Leaf'' they may sometimes talk about [=UFOs=]. And no, it's not what you think it is... [[spoiler:They're "Unidentified Floor Oranges".]]
* CoolBigSis: Believe it or not, Lazy villagers may comment on how a Snooty villager would be nice to have as a sister. They also act like a surrogate big sister to the player character if you befriend them. Or even a MamaBear or possible LoveInterest to Male [=PCs=].
** Francine the rabbit seems to be this to Chrissy the peppy rabbit, particularly in ''Happy Home Designer'' where her room request is "something Chrissy would like." The Japanese ''City Folk'' website even says she's Chrissy's older sister. According to their ''[[VideoGame/AnimalCrossingPocketCamp Pocket Camp]]'' bios, Francine is very mindful of Chrissy's behavior despite how aloof she is of her own; her own further suggests that his is a testament to just how much she cares for her.
* DeadpanSnarker: They have their moments.
* DefrostingIceQueen: They can be standoffish at first, but will quickly warm up to the player if you make the effort to befriend them.
* DistaffCounterpart: They are this to Smug villagers, who are similarly vain but willing to befriend you. Until ''New Leaf'', however, they were compared to Cranky villagers despite neither personality sharing anything in common besides possibly their age range.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: One snooty villager is an anteater... named Snooty.
* FormerChildStar: Used to be in a show called "<Town Name> Kids Sing Hour" or something to that effect and signed autographs everywhere. They gave it up for the quiet life in your town and aren't even recognized by any animal celebrities like K.K. Slider and Gracie.
* GossipyHens: The primary source of gossip in town are usually these villagers. Of course, they try to deny it. A few Snooty villagers are ''literally'' hens. Note that if you should befriend one, they'll say they'd never say anything but good things about the PC and state that he/she is so much better than anyone else.
* GyaruGirl: Soleil looks a lot like one.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Very much so in the GCN game; toned down in later games, to the point that they're actually less self centered than the Peppy villagers in ''New Leaf''.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: They can be this on their good days, talking about how the player is one of their best friends and often compliment the player's house in ''New Leaf''.
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The Dark Feminine to the Peppy villagers' Light Feminine. See entry on Peppy Villagers.
* LovableAlphaBitch: Especially in ''New Leaf'', in which they're much nicer (and [[CloudCuckoolander loopier]]) than before. Noticeably, when returning left-behind items to other villagers (which the player delivers), the recipient may comment about how nicely it's wrapped. When you return the news to the Snooty villager, they'll reply, "Well, of course I wrapped it up! What kind of savage doesn't return an item wrapped up nicely?"
* MotherGoose: Willow the sheep has two nursery rhyme references related to sheep. Her catchphrase is "bo peep" and her Japanese name is Mari (Mary).
* TheOjou: They've got the princess (or depending on how old they actually are) queen-like personality down and even have well refined tastes as shown by their houses, so should you cater to their tastes, they'll greatly reward you for it.
* SelfDeprecation: In ''New Leaf'', they occasionally acknowledge that they can be hard to deal with.
* ShesGotLegs: A humorous subversion. They will comment that they're proud of their legs...then specify that they're proud of them because they're one of the fastest runners. It's even lampshaded, at the end of the conversation.
* ShipperOnDeck: PlayedForLaughs; in ''New Leaf'' they may sometimes ask the player if two other villagers in town make a cute couple, only to admit they're not actually a couple, "...yet."
* ShipTease: In New Leaf, if you're a male and you constantly send them letters they'll usually end their letters with "Love and Yours" and begin their letters with My dear X, showing they can really have a crush on the protagonist if given the chance. Could be MayDecemberRomance depending on just how much older they are than the protagonist.
* ShoutOut: Velma looks an awful lot like [[WesternAnimation/ScoobyDoo another character named Velma...]] In ''New Leaf'' she was even given a new outfit that looks more like her.
* SoProudOfYou: After sending them enough letters, if you send them one during the holiday season they state how much you've grown up and that they are proud of who you've become, regardless of gender. They also state they must have learned that from them.
* {{Squee}}: In ''New Leaf'', if you give them the right present on their birthday, they'll squeal in delight.
* TookALevelInKindness: Much like Cranky villagers, they've gotten considerably less acerbic with each installment. By the time of ''New Leaf'', they're hardly mean. Just very high-maintenance.
* {{Tsundere}}: Harsh type. They tend to go from aloof to nice in a short time span.
* VagueAge: Like Cranky below, they are extremely hard to tell how old they are. Some say they're as old as the Cranky villagers through subtle hints like "having an arsenal of skin care products to deal with wrinkles" which would put them in the late 30s early 40s or possibly even 50s range. Though they don't appear to have signs of aging unlike the Cranky villager, and could technically go anywhere from late 20s to early 40s.

[[folder: Sisterly]]
[[WMG: Sisterly]]
[[quoteright:241:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/uchi_2063.png]]
[[caption-width-right:241:Some examples of Sisterly villagers. Clockwise from top left: Canberra, Fuchsia, Sylvia, Muffy, Pashmina, Renée, Agnes, Tammy, and Cherry]]
One of the personalities introduced in ''New Leaf'', villagers with this personality are big sister types. They are a bunch of tough cookies, but they are very outgoing and friendly. They're very protective of their friends.
----
* {{Bifauxnen}}: Canberra.
* BigOlUnibrow: Hazel from ''New Leaf'' has one. Her catchphrase is even "Uni-WOW"!
* BearyFriendly: Some of them are bear villagers, such as Charlise.
* BullyHunter: These spunky ladies do not tolerate bullies, and tell you to know when to give up and never pick on anyone for no reason. They'll even want to know if you're pestered by anyone in town so they can beat them up.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Perhaps the most out there villagers ever. They seem to think that a "turf war" is literally just people throwing turf at each other. Also they have a stash of... well, everything. Especially humorous if one says they gave you a traffic cone from their stash of construction equipment. Also, they think doppelgänger is spelled "waffle hanger". Also they have bizarre dreams and salute potatoes.
* CoolBigSis: As rough as they can be, they're extremely protective of the PlayerCharacter, and will even give you medicine for free if you talk to them after being stung by a bee. Even if they're sick themselves. In ''New Horizons'' they instead provide you with the crafting recipe for medicine, but it's not really any less generous.
* CoolHelmet: Rocket, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
* CoolMask: Mira, one of the five superhero villagers, wears an orange superhero mask.
* CuteBruiser: They're all cute but one of the things they like to talk about openly is ''beating other people up''.
* DistaffCounterpart: To Cranky villagers, as both come across as InnocentlyInsensitive, but are caring and empathetic deep down. Both personality types wake up and go to bed at later times than other villagers. Sisterly villagers also share many traits with Jock villagers, such as their love of sports.
* ElegantGothicLolita: Muffy the sheep's design resembles this, with black wool, purple horns, makeup, and a pink scarf. Her home also has a bunch of rococo furniture and other fancy items.
* {{Fanservice}}: The cover of K.K. Disco features Fuschia in a [[BareYourMidriff crop top]] and short skirt. [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/animalcrossing/images/b/b9/AMF-AlbumArt-K.K._Disco.png/revision/latest?cb=20171113021025 No, really.]]
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Muffy. She's an ElegantGothicLolita who wears a headband with ribbons on it, a pink scarf (replaced with a fancy purple shirt in ''New Horizons''), and makeup, and her house's furnishings are very ornate, with a lot of furniture from the rococo series. However, she has the same tomboyish personality as other Sisterly villagers.
* GyaruGirl: Deidre looks like one.
* HotBlooded: It doesn't take much to anger them, and once they do, watch out!
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Similar to the Lazy villagers above, they can sometimes make other villagers cry by saying certain rude things that rub them the wrong way. Like saying a Lazy villager's catchphrase is "lame" for instance. They don't really mean what they say, however.
* TheLadette: Their favorite topics of conversation include getting into fights, playing sports, and getting into more fights.
* LastSecondWordSwap: Place a cool tent at your campsite in ''Pocket Camp'', and they'll note how the motorcycle reminds them of when they were living on the road and running away from the law-I mean, the LOBSTERS.
* LethalChef: Apparently one in New Horizons, where a conversation between one and a lazy villager can reveal it. The conversation goes from Lazy wanting the Sisterly villager to cook for them, to him [[INeedToGoIronMyDog saying that he'll be busy]] [[BrutalHonesty hiding from them]] on the day the Sisterly offers.
* MagicalGirl: Mira, with her color motif and English and Japanese names (Mirako) being a ShoutOut to [[{{Franchise/SailorMoon}} Sailor Venus]].
* MamaBear: They're very protective of their friends. Befriend them and they'll tell you that they'll gladly beat up anyone for you that's giving you trouble.
* NeatFreak: When visiting their houses or visiting yours, they often talk about cleaning methods.
* NightmareFetishist: Sorta justified for her being a phoenix, but Phoebe wishes to live in a house surrounded by fire in ''Happy Home Designer'', giving you campfires, torches, [[BreadEggsMilkSquick and]] gas pumps and gas cans... Making her seeming to be an arsonist...
* NotAMorningPerson: They wake up later than any other villager (11 AM by default), and are still a little sleepy when they get up.
* PassionateSportsGirl: May randomly ask the PlayerCharacter how they would rate themselves at some sort of sport, saying that she's going to try to organize a town tournament.
* PerkyGoth: Muffy the sheep evokes this with her appearance contrasting with her personality. Her birthday is also Valentine's Day and her default catchphrase is "nightshade".
* ThePhoenix: While Phoebe is technically an ostrich, her name, catchphrase and appearance make it quite clear that she's actually a phoenix.
* {{Retcon}}: Like Smug above, some villagers such as Charlise and Sylvia (originally Peppy and Snooty respectively) were changed into this personality in ''New Leaf''.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: They may like beating people up, but they are mainly violently protective of the Player Character because they see them as a younger sibling. They even admit in letters "deep emotional stuff isn't usually their thing". Suuuure.
* {{Tomboy}}: They tend to have more "out there" designs than other female villagers, are interested in sports, and are generally fairly rough-and-tumble. One of the petitions a Sisterly villager may ask you to gather signatures for is called "Tomboys Are People Too."
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: They sometimes mention that they absolutely love potatoes and can eat them in any format.
* WalkingTechBane: They may claim to be this if they visit the player's house and see a computer in it.

[[caption-width-right:207:Some examples of Lazy villagers. Clockwise from top left: Punchy, Beau, Joey, Simon, Hugh, Jeremiah, Walker, Clyde, and Puck]]
Lazy villagers are just in it to have a good time. They love long naps, good food, and a party every once in a while. They may subtly flirt with the female players. They're easygoing and tend to be agreeable. Some of the more HotBlooded types may be annoyed by their slow pace, but relax... they're just doing what they do best. Chill.
----
* AdorablyPrecociousChild: Although "child" maybe an overstatement here due to their vague age, but they're implied to be the youngest out of all the villager personalities and they tend to act like prepubescent children trying to act all grown up.
* {{Adorkable}}: Especially in the first game. One of them, Derwin, takes this UpToEleven. Bob is another example of an Adorkable Lazy Villager, sleeping with a night light, having near child-like innocence, and even crying a river when he's feeling sad. Aww...
* AmbiguouslyBi: The fact they want to sleep in the same bed as you regardless of gender, think you're stealthy like a ninja, and admit you have hands perfect for shaking trees while the "dreamy" heart appears over their head during both leaves very little to the imagination. But given the NoHuggingNoKissing rules of Animal Crossing they don't go much farther.
* {{Bambification}}: Beau and Erik, the lazy deer villagers.
* BigEater: Half the time they talk about eating. If they are present at someone's birthday, they'll remark about wanting to eat the cake.
* BerserkButton: ''Wild World'' only. It is very rare for a lazy villager to get angry. But they will when they talk about how another villager called them a bug.
--> '''Lazy:''' That big meanie (villager name) called me a pesky little bug! What's the big deal!? So I ate a (food item)! Or SIX! Whatever! So I guess if a guy enjoys life, he is a bug. Lame, (catchphrase)!
** Also, don't call them cute. Or they'll be pretty upset for a bit, then accept the compliment.
* ButtMonkey: Not as much as the Cranky villagers, but they are often gossiped about by the Snooty villagers... and not in a good way.
* {{Camp}}: Papi's catchphrase is "haaay". Granted, he's a horse, but there's no way the English localization team didn't have the CampGay stereotype in mind when they decided on that one.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In earlier versions of the series (at least in the English localizations) the character archetype was loosely implied to be a collection of [[CoolOldGuy cool and wacky old guys]], with their [[ScatterbrainedSenior silliness being explained by their age]] and their laziness implying the SeniorSleepCycle. Later editions re-imagined their childish personalities as being literal childishness, now re-framed to be the youngest villager type. Minor details were changed on certain villagers along with this (such as altering the shading of Doc's mouth so it doesn't resemble a mustache as much) to make their age vague on the other end of the spectrum.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: If it doesn't involve eating or sleeping, it probably doesn't reach Planet Lazy. Sometimes they can say outright weird things like how they had a dream about rock climbing [[TooDumbToLive in a sauna]] and the player character saved them. They aren't dumb, just childishly naive.
* CoolHelmet: Big Top, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
** Puck, a penguin who wears a blue hockey helmet, and in ''New Horizons'', he gets a jersey to go with it.
* CryCute: Sometimes they'll do this when someone accidentally hurts their feelings.
* TheCutie: And how! These guys will cry at the drop of a hat, are nothing but nice to everyone (with occasional moments of being insensitive), and are downright adorable. Plus they act like little kids which only adds to the cuteness. Beau's description in ''Pocket Camp'' even references this.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Bob, a male Lazy pink cat, whose default shirt looks more like a dress and has a strange knowledge of fashion.
** There's also Filbert, a male Lazy blue squirrel, who not only looks rather effeminate, but also wears a white and pink floral dress as his default shirt in every game he appears in, up until ''New Leaf'' (where it was changed to a black and white checkerboard patterned shirt).
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Beau's description in ''Pocket Camp'' mentions how everyone can't help but [[{{Pun}} fawn]] over him, due to his status as TheCutie.
* EruditeStoner: Bob may rival K.K. Slider in this regard having his eyes constantly narrowed in a "chill" way.
* FaceOfAThug: Rodeo is a black bull with red eyes, giving him an extremely intimidating appearance. But being a Lazy villager, he's a big softie.
* GuestFighter: And the only 3rd party one, a Felyne from ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter''.
* HeavySleeper: The other half they talk about napping. They also wake up at 9:00am and go to sleep at 11:00pm, which is longer than other villager types.
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Big Top, an elephant of this type, seems to be one of these.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: They're so carefree that they sometimes don't realize the implications of what they're saying. Take this conversation in ''Wild World'' for example:
--> '''Lazy:''' Yesterday, I had the most amazing dream. I was this HUGE movie star! And I got invited to all these parties! There were all these famous actresses, and we all ate sponge cake together! By the way, you were in my dream, too.\\
'''Normal:''' Goodness! Really? Was I a famous actress, too?\\
'''Lazy:''' Actually, you were in the kitchen cooking the sponge cake. Yeah, you were really sweating up a storm! Yep. As usual, you were the star of the party!\\
'''Normal:''' I guess I could take that as a compliment... Yeah, if I were a total idiot! You're a stupid, sexist jerk! And I thought we were friends!
** And this exchange from ''New Leaf'':
--> '''Normal:''' What did you want to talk about, <Lazy>?\\
'''Lazy:''' You're a neat freak, aren't you, <Normal>? Sorry my place is such a mess. I bet just being here is giving you the urge to start cleaning, huh?\\
'''Normal:''' Excuse me?! You invited me here to clean your house?! Um, RUDE! Wait a sec. Your place is actually pretty clean. It looks like you're the one who's a neat freak!
** Filbert, specifically, is noted to be this in his ''Pocket Camp'' bio.
* {{Keet}}: Excitable, cute, and always looking for fun as long as it doesn't interrupt with their sleep schedule. They'll also talk about how much they love eating with a smile on their face.
* LiesDamnedLiesAndStatistics: PlayedForLaughs in ''New Leaf'' in one of the possible ways a Lazy villager may propose a Public Works Project. Their opening statement in this case is that studies show that the desired project could up their town's "coolness factor" by an absurdly large percentage. And then they [[LampshadeHanging admit they just made the number up]].
* LivingToys: Stitches, who looks like an old worn-out teddy bear that came to life. There's also Hopkins, a rabbit who has an air hole sticking out of the back of his head which suggests that he's an inflatable pool toy of some sort.
* ManChild: They may be adults, but they are mentally prepubescent kids. Cranky villagers outright state that they're still kids. But then again that may have been figurative [[note]] possibly implying that they're kids compared to their own age. Or the fact much older people tend to see even 20 year olds as "still kids" [[/note]]
* MommasBoy: If you write them letters frequently, they'll say they got one letter from you and ''nine'' from their mother. One must wonder how overprotective their mother is to send them a total of 9 letters each day.
* {{Nerd}}: Sometimes they'll approach you and ask you to define how old a "grown up" is. If you answer 40, they'll say they want to spend their older days buying comic books and video games.
* NerdGlasses: Derwin the bespectacled duck.
* NiceGuy: They're the nicest and easiest villagers to befriend. They're also the least likely villagers to move out of your town.
* NiceHat: Boomer, a penguin who wears an aviator's hat and goggles, and in ''New Horizons'', gets a matching jacket.
* NoodleIncident: Nobody knows why Lucky is completely covered in bandages, but one possible explanation states that it had to do with "a bizarre fishing accident involving a hook and two bass."
* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Drago, while technically an alligator, is very clearly meant to be a dragon based on his name, appearance and catchphrase.
* SignatureLaugh: "A huh huh huh!"
* TheSlacker: Their most defining trait.
* {{Sleepyhead}}: Though Lazy villagers are known for how much they sleep, Sherb, a goat introduced in ''New Horizons'', takes this UpToEleven, with his poster depicting him sleeping in his pajamas, and his ''Pocket Camp'' bio stating that he believes that nothing's quite like a good night's sleep, adding that though he's very particular about his bedtime gear, he can doze off just about anywhere.
* SpearCounterpart: To Normal villagers.
* StalkerWithACrush: Depending on the game, they can get a little obsessive towards the player if befriended. In ''Wild World'', they'll admit to sneaking into the player's house and sleeping on their floor. Inviting them to your house in ''New Leaf'' may have them remark about wanting to sleep in the same bed with you, with all that that would imply.
* StayInTheKitchen: When a Normal Villager comes over, they'll imply they want them to clean their house, and in Wild World, when telling a Normal Villager about a dream they had, they'll say the Normal Villager was cooking sponge cake for them.
* TokenEvilTeammate: It's hinted that the elephant villager Big Top is this to the five superhero villagers, as his catchphrase is "villain" and his ''Wild World'' picture quote is "World domination!" However, "villain" could simply reference his superhero charm, and he is just as nice to the player as any other lazy villager is.
* VagueAge: Probably the hardest villagers to tell what age they are. They act like prepubescent children, but live on their own, presumably make money, etc. Possible dialogue you may hear from one while shopping in ''Happy Home Designer'' has him identifying himself as "an adult" ([[GrowingUpSucks and hating it]]). ''New Horizons'' gives them a soft and childish-sounding voice, adding further confusion.
** Earliest editions of the series hinted that they may have actually been conceived as a [[CoolOldGuy friendly elderly and retired group of villagers]] (See ''Characterization Marches On'' above).

[[folder: Jock]]
[[WMG: Jock]]
[[quoteright:206:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jock_7866.png]]
[[caption-width-right:206:Some examples of Jock villagers. Clockwise from top left: Bam, Poncho, Goose, Snake, Kid Cat, Teddy, Jay, Axel, and Rod]]
Do you feel the ''burn,'' baby? The Sporty type is always looking for ways to buff their manly bod. They're always looking for the next big event, and if there isn't one coming up, they'll create one! They love to get people pumped up. Note that, unlike the [[JerkJock jocks at your school]], these guys are nice and liked by most.
----
* {{Acrofatic}}: Some species in the game, such as elephants and pigs, are designed with a noticeably chubby frame. So ones assigned the athletic Jock personality are essentially this.
* {{Adorkable}}: They'll go on tangents sometimes about how they're actually a sensitive, misunderstood guy and cry in front of the player. They may also cry TearsOfJoy upon seeing the player character again if the game has not been played for a very long time.
* AmbiguouslyGay: They really like buff construction workers to the point of almost fainting when they mention their physique. They also start swooning at the thought of [[EvenTheGuysWantHim Cyrus]].
* AwesomeMcCoolname: Kid Cat.
* BigBrotherMentor: They tend to act like this towards the player when befriended.
* BookDumb: Although they aren't ''that'' dumb. Just a little slow-witted. Jay, a Jock bluebird, is surprisingly clever, uses words like "tenacity" and "sublime" while apparently knowing what those words mean, and judging from his house, is a musician, so he's an aversion; Teddy, a Jock bear, also has a bookshelf in his house. They actually write pretty deep letters considering and are more BookDumb than actually stupid. A lot of these jocks end up actually just dumb in math and pretty smart in other things, as they will ask the player character for help with a math problem to which a Normal villager will get upset if the PC gives the right answer saying that he can't rely on his friends to solve all his math problems in life.
* CasanovaWannabe: They had shades of this in the Gamecube version, but this is no longer the case in the sequels.
* CoolHelmet: Kid Cat, one of the five superhero villagers, dons one of these.
** Sterling, an eagle who wears a silver knight's helmet with matching greaves.
** Scoot, a duck who wears a white hockey helmet.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Dom, the new Jock villager from ''New Horizons'', is a pastel pink sheep with a feminine face who wears a rainbow tie-dye shirt. Many fans mistook him for a girl when his render was first released.
* EpicFail: In ''New Leaf'', during a conversation with Normal villagers, they can't even get simple math problems correct without the player's help.
* {{Flanderization}}: After the [[UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube GameCube]] game, they become a lot more sport obsessed. Taken UpToEleven in ''New Horizons'', where nearly every single conversation involves sports, muscles, or fitness.
* FriendlessBackground: Implied in a conversation with them, once you really get to know them, they'll say they're lucky to have friends at all.
* GuestFighter: Inkwell, an octopus who loves anything ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''-related.
* HiddenDepths: Some of their conversations imply that they aren't that obsessed with working out as they like to make themselves out to be. Also, some of them have an interest in dinosaurs. There's also the fact they watch Soap Operas. They even say at one point if they're the "newbie" in the town in New Leaf they are generally very shy, giving them some introverted jock traits.
* HotBlooded: Be careful how you answer some of their questions (especially in the GCN version). They can be rather... TESTY, from time to time.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: A conversation in ''New Leaf'' involves a Jock villager accidentally making a Normal villager cry when he runs out of things to talk to her about and asks the PlayerCharacter for help, and she thinks that means that he thinks she's boring. The Jock villager tries to comfort her by saying that he was just nervous and the Normal villager instantly cheers up. They may also upset Lazy villagers when they try to get them to be more active.
* {{Keet}}: They're very excitable and fun, which just makes them even more adorable. ''New Leaf'' turns it up a notch by giving Jocks the highest pitched voice out of all the male villagers and really fleshing out their excitable nature a lot more.
* LovableJock: Unlike [[JerkJock the jocks at your school]], these guys are very friendly and have a good heart.
* MaskedLuchador: Stinky.
* MommasBoy: Not nearly to the extent of the Lazy Villagers, but if you wake them up early, they might say "Five more minutes... Pleaaaaase Mommy!".
* NiceHat: Rod, a mouse who wears a white/blue striped bandanna. In ''New Horizons'', he gets a matching tank top.
* NightmareFetishist: Genji, who wants to live in a house perfect to tell ghost stories in if you take his request in Happy Home Designer. It includes skeletons and many of the things you'd need to make a horror place.
* {{Ninja}}: Snake, a rabbit who wears a ninja hood, and whose ''Pocket Camp'' bio calls him this. ''Pocket Camp'' and ''New Horizons'' gives him a matching ninja costume.
* NoIndoorVoice: Chances are a conversation with a Jock villager will lead to them yelling loudly for whatever reason. One of their greetings just has them yelling "Hi!" directly at the player character's face. Lazy villagers call them out on it and complain they're too loud even while they try to talk normally.
* NotSoDifferent: See entry under Normal Villagers.
* OccidentalOtaku: Genji. Prior to ''New Horizons'', his catchphrase was even "otaku".
* RedIsHeroic: Kid Cat, one of the five superhero villagers, whose outfit is primarily red.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Ribbot the robot frog. Despite his appearance, he gets hungry, drinks coffee, and can even ''get fleas'' like the rest of the animals.
** The same can be said for Sprocket the robot ostrich.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: In ''New Leaf'', they sometimes report asking a male and female villager who are close "How are the lovebirds doing?", resulting in this.
* ShipperOnDeck: Think Peppy and Cranky villagers would make a good couple.
** They may also mention instances where they've seen two villagers getting along closely and asked, "How are the two lovebirds doing?" Apparently, they just laugh, leading to the Jock villager's embarrassment.
* ShoutOutToShakespeare: {{Theatre/Hamlet}} [[PunnyName the hamster.]] For bonus points, his picture quote is ''"The ear's the thing."''
* SpearCounterpart: Most comparable to Peppy villagers, both being energetic and, as of New Leaf, having the highest pitched voice of their respective genders. Sisterly villagers also share their love of sports.
* StoutStrength: As noted in {{Acrofatic}} above, some species types are notably chubby, and the Jock lineup includes villagers of these species. Roald's bio in ''Pocket Camp'' lampshades this, saying he "packs a lot of muscle into that tiny, round body."
* SurferDude: They tend to talk like this sometimes, dude.
* TookALevelInKindness: They weren't exactly ''mean'' in the original game, but later installments would give them more depth, and they'd be a lot less rude at times. They still laugh at your misfortune should the player get stung by a bee, but it's a far cry from what they used to be like.
** UpToEleven in ''New Horizons'', where they are always warm and friendly when it comes to the player, as well as looking out for them and giving them advice for a healthy lifestyle. Even before being friends, they will sometimes regard the player as [[FriendlyRivalry their favorite rival]].
* ToiletHumor: They sneeze often and remark about how something may have gone flying towards you.
* UnusualEuphemism:
** When they lose a game of hide-and-seek: "Aw, barbells!"
** When giving them perfect fruit to eat: "'''''YUMMAHUMMA!'''''"
* VerbalTic: Dude, whenever they use it. Also "bro" and other "hip" variants such as brozinsky, brosky and so on.

[[folder: Cranky]]
[[WMG: Cranky]]
[[quoteright:232:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cranky_8468.png]]
[[caption-width-right:232:Some examples of Cranky villagers. Clockwise from top left: Wolfgang, Vladimir, Roscoe, Octavian, Knox, Butch, Apollo, Harry, and Gaston]]
Implied to be the oldest of the townsfolk, the Cranky villagers are hard to warm up to, sarcastic, and snarky. However, it might be that they just don't connect with the other townspeople due to being somewhat older. Befriend them, and they reveal their HiddenHeartOfGold. Surprisingly, they get along well with some of the other villagers--but not all.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Ganon appears thanks to amiibo support. He may be Cranky, but he's still certainly nicer than his version from the original games.
* {{Bishonen}}: Chief and Fang have the effeminate face and poses down pat, and Rooney looks like a character from a sports anime.
* BlatantBurgler: Rizzo the mouse has the Japanese version of this look, wearing [[StealthClothes a purple handkerchief tied around his head]]. On top of that, his ''Happy Home Designer'' request is "a hideout".
* BoxingKangaroo: Both Cranky kangaroos (and the only male kangaroos in the series as-of ''New Leaf'') evoke this imagery to some extent - Rooney is a more overt example, having boxing gloves and a house filled with training equipment and a boxing ring, while Walt has no such theme to his design but boasts HandwrapsOfAwesome.
* ChessMotifs: Roscoe is a black horse who has a checkerboard shirt. His house contains the Modern series of furniture, which also has a checked pattern.
* CoolHelmet: Knox, a chicken who wears a golden knight's helmet with matching greaves.
** Vic, a bull who wears a viking helmet.
* CoolOldGuy: Not as old as most examples, but implied to be older than the other villages and the player character.
* DeadpanSnarker: ''Especially'' in ''City.''
* FaceOfAThug: They give out an intimidating mien and often have rough appearances that cause other people to get frightened of them, which they lament over. Although it becomes something of an InformedAttribute when someone like [[http://images.wikia.com/animalcrossing/images/f/f0/Tom_NewLeaf_Official.png Tom]] says this.
* FriendlessBackground: Implied to not have very many friends outside of the villagers in your town and the Player Character. Probably because of their gruff disposition.
* GoKartingWithBowser: Ganon may have tried to destroy Hyrule multiple times, but in ''New Leaf'', you can convince him to move into your town, befriend him, and give him fruit and butterflies, if you so choose.
* GrumpyOldMan: The personality, although they don't seem to be ''drastically'' older than the other characters. ''New Leaf'' gives us this gem of dialogue: "The night is still young, though [[SelfDeprecation I am definitely not]], (catchphrase)!"
* GuestFighter: Ganon, the king of evil and recurring BigBad from ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series.
* HandwrapsOfAwesome: Walt has these, fitting with his rugged appearance and [[BoxingKangaroo his species' reputation]].
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: ''Despite'' their grump and snark, they do warm up to you. Croque takes this further for having his default CatchPhrase say "as if". Also they do remember pranking a girl and feeling bad for her back when they were a young lad.
* LikeASonToMe: Befriended Cranky villagers give off a fatherly personality towards the player characters in later installments.
* MayDecemberRomance: Sometimes they'll hang out with a Peppy villager to the point of Jock villagers shipping them. If it's truly love and they actually are as old as they seem to imply, then this is probably the trope to use.
* MoralityPet: The aforementioned Peppy villagers, Lazy villagers, and even Normal villagers all get along with them.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In ''New Leaf'', like Snooty villagers, if they make another villager angry in conversation, they sometimes get sad.
* TheNightOwl: They go to sleep later than other villagers and also wake up later.
* NotAMorningPerson: Cranky villagers wake up at 10 AM by default, later than all the other types of villagers except Sisterly in ''New Leaf''.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Vladimir is a pink bear cub who's apparently the oldest person in town.
* PetTheDog: They surprisingly get along well with Lazy villagers, who look up to them. Not to mention Ganon, the remorseless King of Evil, can be one of these guys which makes it all the more hilarious if he's nice to a lazy villager. Or nice to Wolf Link or Medli.
* PungeonMaster: Rocco, according to his ''New Leaf'' [[AllThereInTheManual April Fool's stats]] and ''Pocket Camp'' in-game bio.
* RealMenWearPink: Vladimir, who's a pink cub.
* SignatureLaugh: "GAHAHA!" In one of their conversations with Lazy villagers, they even try to convince the Lazy villager to change their SignatureLaugh into their own. Ganon's catchphrase is "heh heh".
* SpearCounterpart: In ''New Leaf'', with their rough exterior, yet caring hidden side, they are now considered the male equivalent to Sisterly villagers, and both are also stubborn and opinionated. Before this, they were compared to Snooty villagers.
* StealthPun: Apollo the bald eagle's birthday is on the [[UsefulNotes/AmericanHolidays Fourth of July]].
* TookALevelInKindness: Zigzagged in between installments. They became less grouchy in ''Wild World'', but then they were made more snarky in ''City Folk''. Come ''New Leaf'', they're significantly less grumpy and more approachable, albeit a little rough at first.
** In ''New Horizons'', they even outright mention that they may seem scary, but they'll always be welcoming to those that they've taken a liking to when first introducing themselves.
* VagueAge: Act like old men, but could be anywhere from their early thirties to late sixties. This is especially weird with Murphy and Vladimir, who are both apparently middle-aged ''cubs'' (i.e., baby bears).

[[folder: Smug]]
[[WMG: Smug]]
[[quoteright:243:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/smug_1912.png]]
[[caption-width-right:243:Some examples of Smug villagers. Clockwise from top left: Zell, Marshal, Olaf, Julian, Beardo, Shep, Chops, Eugene, and Quillson]]
One of the personalities introduced in ''New Leaf'', villagers with this personality act gentlemanly and are easy to get along with, but as their name suggests, can get quite insufferable at times.
----
* {{Adorkable}}: Yep, even these guys. They say stay out of their closets because they have their baby toys and clothes in it, giving them some similarities to Lazy villagers. They also cry often when you write them a good letter.
* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: Hans is a gorilla with white fur and a winter-themed house which suggest that he's a well-dressed yeti.
* {{Bishonen}}: Some of them were designed with this in mind, such as Marshal, Julian, and Colton. Ken is also rather pretty for a rooster, given he wears what appears to be mascara around his eyes and has a Bishie Ninja look to him, while Olaf looks like a love interest from a 70's shojo manga. Then there's Leopold and Ed [[RetCon who were originally jocks]].
* BiTheWay: They will quite shamelessly flirt and show strong affection for the player character and other villagers regardless of gender. Especially shown in the fact when one of them might forget to return an item from a Jock villager, and adds a card on the present that leaves very little to the imagination basically saying "I'm sorry I forgot to give this to you, do you still love me?" The Jock villagers, being rather ambiguous about [[AmbiguouslyGay their preference]] themselves will naturally be flattered and start blushing.
* BlankWhiteEyes: The villager Julian, [[EyesAlwaysShut who’s eyes are usually always shut]], has this whenever he opens them if surprised.
* BlindingBangs: Shep, a dog that looks like a sheepdog, has a mop of hair covering his eyes.
* [[CampGay Camp Bi]]: Suffice to say they like to flaunt their flamboyancy including flirting with the player, talking about how certain pleasurable activities such as watching fish is "romantic" and so on.
* CartoonCheese: Chadder, a [[{{Irony}} mouse]] who looks like he's made of it.
* CasanovaWannabe: Flirts with the PlayerCharacter (and sometimes other villagers), but [[NoHuggingNoKissing it never goes anywhere]], [[BestialityIsDepraved for obvious reasons]].
* CloudCuckooLander: Most of the smug villagers are this on a mild level. Among them, Julian's ''Pocket Camp'' bio in particular makes note of his eccentricities.
---> Julian's always been a little wild and free-spirited. Hey, if you were born with a horn on your head for some inexplicable reason, you'd be an oddball too.
* ConMan: On days when Redd is in town, they will try to sell you a painting that is almost always fake for a ridiculous amount of bells. [[SubvertedTrope However]], sometimes if you agree to the trade, they might end up feeling so bad that they charged such a high price that they just give the painting to you for free.
* CoolOldGuy: A few of them sport facial hair and designs which lend them a certain older gentlemanly flair, most notably Lionel, a lion with a white BadassMustache and mane.
* TheDandy: Care much more about their appearance than the other male villager types.
* {{Flanderization}}: In ''New Horizons'', Smug villagers are notably more full of themselves than in ''New Leaf''.
* {{Gonk}}: As one can tell from looking at the image, if a smug villager is not a {{bishonen}}, he is this. There is little in between.
* {{Greaser Delinquent|s}}: Eugene the koala is designed to look like one of these, with black fur that looks like sideburns, CoolShades that [[SunglassesAtNight he wears at all times]], his default shirt being a leather jacket, and his default catchphrase being "yeah buddy". All he lacks is the actual attitude.
* GuestFighter: Wolf Link, Link's wolf form from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess''. It's highly amusing that someone who is famous for being portrayed as a stoic HeroicMime is given this personality.
* {{Hipster}}: They're always trying out obscure trends and trying to stay out of the norm, which some of the other villagers find irritating. In fact, some of their dialogue can be considered a TakeThat at hipsters.
* InLoveWithLove: Their dialogue at The Roost implies this.
* InsistentTerminology: They insist that they're ''enthusiasts'', not geeks. [[ClosetGeek Because geeks aren't cool.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: Though Smug villagers aren't mean, really, just madly in love with themselves.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: One potential conversation a Smug villager may have with a Lazy villager has the former offering the latter a lesson in cooking pasta. As the conversation goes on, however, it becomes clear that the Lazy villager is far more knowledgeable on the matter while the Smug villager remains confident in what he's saying.
* LargeHam: Absolutely this, most notably when they describe a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to a Lazy villager in the most unnecessarily drawn out and descriptive way possible. They tend to be quite theatrical with their dialogue in general.
* MismatchedEyes: Raymond, the cat introduced in ''New Horizons'', has complete heterochromia iridum, with his left eye being green and his right eye being brown. He is the only character with this trait.
* NerdGlasses: Graham the hamster, Leopold the lion, and Raymond the cat sport these, though they suit them fairly well.
* NiceGuy: Despite being called "smug", they're actually one of the friendliest villager types and rarely have anything mean to say. They can be quite full of themselves, however.
* NiceHat: Jacques, a bird who wears a green knit cap.
** O'Hare, a rabbit who wears a straw top hat with black trim.
* NonIronicClown: Pietro is a clown sheep, but he has a jolly appearance and is as friendly as any other villager of his type.
* PrincelyYoungMan: Colton seems to invoke this with a snobby manedo and royal attire. He even bows on his amiibo card!
* RailEnthusiast: They may sometimes go on a tangent about the previous models of trains used in the town train station... much to their own embarrassment once they realize it.
* {{Retcon}}: Some villagers such as Ed, Kidd and O'Hare (originally a Jock, Lazy and Cranky respectively) were changed into this personality on the transition to ''New Leaf''.
* OccidentalOtaku: They also show interest to anime, such as when they start complaining about the fact that anime songs aren't played in your town's club. In ''Happy Home Designer'' they talk about marathoning anime and say that manga is superior to western comics. Then we come to Ken, who's basically either a rooster of Japanese descent or this. His name is arguably even a reference to Shuriken, a type of Japanese throwing star.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Some take to calling themselves "geniuses" and call themselves names like "Beardo of the Red Rose" to show how suave they think they are.
* SmugSnake: Well, ''duh.'' They aren't mean, though.
* SpearCounterpart: To Snooty villagers, as both are a little vain.
* {{Unicorn}}: Julian, supposedly a horse, has a horn.
