* {{Bishonen}}: Sasha, who has a very feminine appearance and is the only male villager with the fashion hobby and the only male villager in ''Pocket Camp'' so far that prefers the "Cute" theme.

* StealthPun: Apollo the bald eagle's birthday is on the [[UsefulNotes/AmericanHolidays Fourth of July]].

* ContraltoOfDanger: They always have the deepest voice among the female villagers and they used to be pretty cold and stand-offish compared to the other villagers.

* GenkiGirl: Oh, ''so'' much.

** Patty is brown but her default clothes is the [[EdibleThemeClothing Orange Shirt]] in every game.

* PinkIsFeminine: Many Peppy villagers are pink or wear pink, but special mention goes to Flora the flamingo[[note]]officially, she's an ostrich, but she's colored like a flamingo[[/note]] whose favorite color is pink, her default catchphrase being "pinky", and her picture quote being "Pink is the new black." Her home requests in ''Happy Home Designer'' and ''Happy Home Paradise'' have her wanting a house that's entirely pink.

* PinkIsFeminine: Rocket, the fourth member of the [[{{Sentai}} team of hero villagers]] wears a pink suit, [[SubvertedTrope but]] [[BrawnHilda is a big tomboyish gorilla]].

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Marlo, a hamster villager introduced in the ''New Horizons'' 2.0 update, is based on Creator/MarlonBrando and his most famous role as Don Vito Corleone in ''Film/TheGodfather'', as he is meant to look like a typical mafia boss.

* {{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.]]

* InformedSpecies: There are some villagers that resemble certain animals but are classified as another, such as Savannah who looks like a zebra and Papi who looks like an okapi but are both listed as horses, or Boone who looks like a mandrill but is listed as a gorilla. The ostrich villagers are especially notorious for this, as most have the plumage of other fowl species, such as Blanche being a swan, Cranston being a crested ibis, Flora being a flamingo, Gladys being a crane, Julia being a [[AnimalGenderBender peacock]], and Phil being a pheasant. Most male deer villagers are this as well due to their horns, with Bam and Erik[[note]]Erik is actually a moose but moose are considered deer[[/note]] being the only actual deer while the rest of the males are based off of antelopes.

* TookALevelInKindness: [[AmericanKirbyIsHardcore Due to the localization team feeling the need to spice up the Japanese script]], the overseas versions of the original [=GameCube=] game had all the villager personalities with sassier dialogue. Even the "nicer" personalities, like Lazy villagers, had dialogue ranging from mild snark to just outright mean-spirited insults directed at the player (such as calling the player fat for no reason with a denial just getting a laugh at from them). And saying no to any of their requests, [[ItsAllAboutMe no matter how selfish or unreasonable they might be]], tends to result in getting a good lambasting from them. This is also the case in ''Wild World'' although not to the same extent of its predecessor. Games from ''City Folk'' onwards tone this down by staying more loyal to the original Japanese script, making the villagers nicer and more mild mannered and only showing any sort of meanness if the player decides to be rude to them first. And even then it's pretty tame. This is noticeable with the Snooty and Cranky villagers, who often need to warm up to the player first before they act friendly but are now approachable on their own.

* BornUnlucky: [[IronicName Lucky]], as per his bios. In ''Happy Home Designer'', he wants a house filled with good luck charms to counteract all the bad luck he has.

* ButtMonkey: Not as much as the Cranky villagers, but they are often gossiped about by the Snooty villagers... and not in a good way.

* SimpletonVoice: Implied by their "A huh huh huh!" laugh.

* SweetBaker: Sweet ol' Beau in ''Pocket Camp'' had the "Beau's Artisanal Cookie" which gave bakery themed furniture. In his scrapbook memory, he starts up a bakery in the camp by himself.

* 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.

* SuperOCD: Raymond's description in ''Pocket Camp'' has him described as "very precise" to the point of requiring his glasses to be at a specific angle on his nose at all times, as otherwise he won't be able to get any work done that day.

** Jacob the bird plays this straight in ''New Horizons'' with the inside of his house being a literal garbage dump that uses the garbage-heap wallpaper and flooring [[spoiler:which the player can replicate with a DIY recipe]]. His house and RV in ''New Leaf'' is like this, too, albeit to a lesser extent.
** Hornsby's house, while nowhere as bad, is filled with discarded moving boxes [[spoiler:crafted into furniture]], and has a pair of filled garbage backs shoved in a corner.

* 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.

* TheLadette: Their favorite topics of conversation include getting into fights, playing sports, and getting into more fights.

** Choleric: Cranky (Male) / Sisterly (Female)
** Melancholic: Smug (Male) / Snooty (Female)

** Snake is not a snake, but a bunny. His name is a reference to the bunyip (which is also his catchphrase), a monster sometimes depicted with snake-like characteristics in Australian Aboriginal mythology.

%% Doesn't explain the reaction. * BerserkButton: Don't call them a neat freak or tell them to StayInTheKitchen. Lazy villagers find that out the hard way.

* 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.

** Despite what his name might suggest, Goose is actually a different kind of bird—a chicken.

* {{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.

* BerserkButton: Don't call them a neat freak or tell them to StayInTheKitchen. Lazy villagers find that out the hard way.

* BerserkButton:
** ''Wild World'' only. It's 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.
** In ''New Horizons'' they can get surprisingly curt and hostile if you decide to open the gift that was to be delivered to them or the gift they lent you that was to be delivered. The annoyed reaction however could be hand-waved by the fact that wrapping the gift again would require more work which is something that a lazy villager would naturally be repelled against.
** Also in ''New Horizons'', during the summer they might give a huge spiel about how much they despise wind chimes, the sound they make, and the concept of wind chimes in general before catching themselves at how angry they've gotten talking about it.

** Hornsby's house, while nowhere as bad, is filled with discarded moving boxes and has a pair of filled garbage backs shoved in a corner.

* CryCute: Sometimes they'll do this when someone accidentally hurts their feelings. In ''New Horizons'', they teach you the "crying" reaction.

* IdenticalStranger: Or "near identical strangers"; Julian and Ed look like they could be brothers, as they're both blue horses with purple eyeshadow. The main differences that distinguish them are Ed's blond hair, Julian being a unicorn with his EyesAlwaysShut, their snout designs, and their hoove colors. However, they are easy to mistaken for each other from a distance if one isn't paying attention. Along with the fact that Ed predated Julian by several games in the series, their Japanese profiles which describe their family structures confirm that the two have no familial ties, as Julian is listed as having a twin brother while Ed is the third youngest of four brothers.
