* Mosquitoes, which are a little ''too'' loyal to their real-world counterparts. They appear from 5 PM to 4 AM during the summer months, they are tiny, they make a really annoying sound, and rather than flying around like other insects such as the butterflies, they are attracted to the PlayerCharacter and can bite them. While a Mosquito bite doesn't cause any major problems unlike being attacked by Wasps (which causes the character to have a [[EyeScream swollen eye]], which can be cured by using Medicine), [[DemonicSpiders Scorpions or Trantulas]] (which knock out the player and causes them to respawn in front of their house), it is annoying when it happens while fishing, as an avatar bitten by a mosquito will automatically reel the fishing rod and cause the fish be scared away, missing the chance to catch it.

* Mole Crickets spawn during the winter and spring months, and boy are they a pain in the rear. Unlike the rest of the bugs in the series, Mole Crickets can only be found by digging with a shovel at a ''very specific spot'', with your only clue at where they exactly are being a very annoying droning sound. In other words you basically have to play the "Hot and Cold" game in order to find them. Once you manage to dig them out you have a short amount of time to pull out your net and capture them before they despawn and you lose the chance to catch them. They are at it's worst in ''Wild World'' as not only does the game not have the option of quickly swapping tools (in other words, you have to pause, unequip the shovel, and then equip the net), but the game ''doesn't'' stop what is happening on-screen while paused, and if the mole cricket escapes while you are getting the net out you can kiss it goodbye. ''New Horizons'' makes them more annoying (although not to the extend of ''Wild World'') because as long as they are buried underground they can prevent other bugs from spawning, making it harder to farm Trantulas and Scorpions during the months the Mole Cricket is active. Mole Crickets also sell for 500 bells, which is a small amount for the pain it is to catch them.

* While not being as bad as the Sea Bass, the Black Bass is also an annoying fish to deal with. It sells for only 300 bells (400 bells in ''New Horizons''). The fact that it spawns in the river makes it frustrating to catch more valuable fish like the Koi (although ''New Horizons'' changed the Koi's spawn area from rivers to ponds) or the Char (as while it is a fish that only spawns near a waterfall, it shares the spawn area with the other river fish).
** The Dace is even worse than the Black Bass. It has a similar shadow size and it sells for even ''less'' (200 bells in all of the games).

It is especially bad when you are trying to catch the more valuable small fish of the river like the Guppy or the Angelfish.
** The Pale Chub is pretty much the same as the Crucian Carp, only selling for a few bells more (200 bells in every game). There's also the Pond Smelt, but at least that one sells for about a hundred bells more and only appears from December to February (June to August in the Southern Hemisphere in ''New Horizons'').
* The Goldfish and the Pop-Eyed Fish had the spawn areas changed from the river to the pond in ''New Horizons'', which means that they now share their shadow size with the Frog, which only sells for 120 bells as opposed to the other two which both sell for 1,300 bells. Thankfully though, Frogs only appear from May to August in the Northen Hemisphere and from November to February in the Southern Hemisphere whereas the Goldfish and the Pop-Eyed Fish spawn all year-round.
* Getting the rare and valuable Football Fish, which only shows up during the winter months and from 4 PM to 9 AM, is as a nightmare because you will be getting a lot of Olive Flounders, which show up all year-round and 24 hours a day, in the process.
* During the Summer months, the so called Shark Season starts, and while they are not as bad as the fish that have been previously mentioned, there are also a bunch of GoddamnedBats as well.
** The Ocean Sunfish sells for 4,000 bells, and while it is a good amount of money it is nothing compared to other shark fish, which range from 8,000 to 15,000 bells.
** ''New Horizons'' introduced the Sucker Fish. It sells for 1,500 bells, which is not a bad amount of money, but it is a worst amount than what you get for selling a Great White Shark or a Whale Shark.
[[AC:Bugs]]
* Mosquitoes, which are a little ''too'' loyal to their real world counterparts. They appear from 5 PM to 4 AM during the summer months, they are tiny, they make a really annoying sound, and rather than flying around like other insects such as the butterflies, they are attracted to the PlayerCharacter and can bite them. While a Mosquito bite doesn't cause any major problems unlike being attacked by Wasps (which causes the character to have a [[EyeScream swollen eye]], which can be cured by using Medicine), [[DemonicSpiders Scorpions or Trantulas]] (which knock out the player and causes them to respawn in front of their house), it is annoying when it happens while fishing, as an avatar bitten by a mosquito will automatically reel the fishing rod and cause the fish be scared away, missing the chance to catch it. They are also worthless as they only sell for 130 bells.
* Mole Crickets spawn during the winter and spring months, and boy are they a pain in the ass. Unlike the rest of the bugs in the series, Mole Crickets can only be found by digging with a shovel at a ''very specific spot'', with your only clue at where they exactly are being a rather loud droning sound. In other words you basically have to play the "Hot and Cold" game in order to find them. Once you manage to dig them out you have a short amount of time to pull out your net and catch them before they despawn and you lose the chance to catch them. They are at it's worst in ''Wild World'' as not only does the game not have the option of quickly swapping tools (in other words, you have to pause, unequip the shovel, and then equip the net), but the game ''doesn't'' stop what is happening on-screen while paused, and if the mole cricket escapes while you are getting the net out you can kiss it goodbye. ''New Horizons'' makes them more annoying (although not to the extend of ''Wild World'') because as long as they are buried underground they will prevent other bugs from spawning, making it harder to farm Trantulas and Scorpions during the months the Mole Cricket is active. Mole Crickets also sell for 500 bells, which is a small amount for the pain it is to catch them.
* Wharf Roaches spawn all year round on beach rocks, they are easily scared away and they only sell for 200 bells. Wharf Roaches can also reduce the chance of rare beetles spawning during the summer months.
* Hermit Crabs can prevent more valuable bugs from spawning, but unlike Wharf Roaches which can be easily scared away, Hermit Crabs camouflage in with the other shells at the beach and it takes them way too long to despawn without catching them beforehand. If you are ''actually'' trying to catch one be sure to have your net out, as the damn thing escapes way too quickly once it has been found. On the bright side, a Hermit Crab sells for an okay amount of 1,000 bells.
[[AC:Sea Creatures]]
* The Acorn Barnacle and the Sea Anemone appear all-year round 24 hours a day and sell for 200 and 100 bells in ''New Leaf'' and 600 and 500 bells in ''New Horizons'' respectively. Fortunately they are easy to avoid as unlike other sea creatures they don't move at all, however if you are looking for Gullivarrr's comunicator or pearls, you have no choice but to run into them, especially in the case of the former.
* The Sea Cucumber is probably the most annoying Sea Creature to deal with. Most valuable Sea Creatures have a medium-to-large shadow size and move rather quick, but the Sea Cucumber is the exception to that rule: it only sells for 150 bells in ''New Leaf'' and 500 bells in ''New Horizons''. They only show up during the winter and spring months (November to April in ''New Leaf'' and the Northen Hemisphere in ''New Horizons'', May to October in the Southern Hemisphere), but they will be a thorn on your side during that time.

[[AC:Fish]]
* The Sea Bass is the most infamous example of this. It appears in all of the games (Except the original N64 game, in which the Coelacanth is the only fish that spawns in the sea), shows up all year-round 24 hours a day, and is one of the cheapest fish available in every installment. Later games in the series even [[LampshadeHanging lampshade]] how common they are, with the catch quote being "Not again!" in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingWildWorld'', "Not you again!" in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingCityFolk'' and "What?! You again?!" in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewLeaf'' after catching it for the second time onwards. Getting a Sea Bass is also very frustrating when trying to capture the more rare sea fish, like the Coelacanth, which only shows up when it's raining or snowing by the way, or the Oarfish, as their shadow size is very similar. It is at it's worst in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewHorizons'', as the four rare fish that only show up near the piers share their spawn area with the rest of the sea fish, so expect to get a lot of worthless Sea Bass.
* The Horse Mackerel is even worse than the Sea Bass in regards to sea fish. It sells for 150 bells only and it is a major annoyance in ''New Horizons'' with the introduction of the Barreleye, a rare fish which sells for '''15,000 bells''' and that only spawns from 9 PM to 4 AM, as both fish share the same shadow size.
* While not being as bad as the Sea Bass, the Black Bass is also an annoying fish to deal with. It sells for only 300 bells (400 bells in ''New Horizons''). The fact that it spawns in the river makes it frustrating to catch more valuable fish like the Koi (although ''New Horizons'' changed the Koi's spawn area from rivers to ponds) or the Char (as while it is a fish that only spawns near a waterfall, it shares the spawn area with the other river fish).
** The Dace is even worse than the Black Bass. It has a similar shadow size and it sells for even ''less'' (200 bells in all of the games).
* Remember what we said about the Koi being moved from the river to the pond in ''New Horizons''? Well, don't celebrate just yet because in that game the Koi has the same shadow size as the Carp, which is basically the pond version of the Black Bass.
* The Crucian Carp, ''dear lord'', the Crucian Carp. It has a small shadow size, it appears all year round at any hour, it's extremely common, and it is one of the lowest-selling fish in the series (160 bells in ''New Horizons'' and 140 bells in the rest of the games)!
