Sometimes I see a snooty who I think could pass for a normal or peppy. Especially in squirrels. For example, Blair could totally pass for a peppy/normal, and so could Mint imo. There are a few others I could list, but I don't feel it's necessary.
there are plenty of villagers who are jocks that look anything but athletic. Ribbot comes to mind, he's a small frog, and on top of that he's a robot. but a jock?!
I've done that. For the longest time I thought Chadder was a jock, not smug. So I thought I had 4 jocks, and 1 cranky male villager, but it turns out he's smug. SO then I had 3 jocks, 1 smug and 1 cranky. Those villagers are all gone now, except for Kid Cat, it was a while ago :/
I've mistaken Cheri for an uchi before, she really does look like an uchi to me. I've also mistaken Genji for a cranky, his grumpy face just makes him appear like a cranky, tbh though I think he'd be much better as a cranky I have him in my town and he honestly doesn't suit being a jock to me. Although maybe he is kinda like a jock, because I can imagine him being like one of those teachers of the ancient arts but other then that he seems like a cranky to me. Another one is Marshal, although he's pretty good as a smug as well. It'd just be more fitting if he was grumpy. He'd probably gain more even popularity too tbh. As some don't like the smug personality.
When I first started playing this game, I started out with Whitney in my town and I thought she was a normal. Took me a while to figure out she was actually a snooty. I was surprised because snooty villagers in this game are NOTHING like they were in the GC version. In that one, they were flat out rude and would blatantly insult you. Same with cranky villagers; they're both so much nicer in this game.
To me Rudy looks more like a lazy....everything from his shirt to his house.
I'm pretty sure that's why he's the only jock I love though, because he appears so much more chill and his house is so playful rather than full of gym equipment.
And for some reason Drago reminds me of a cranky....couldn't tell you why though
There are sooo many!! Like Pecan and Blaire are both snooty, yet they are both the sweetest little babies you could ever find! Also, O'Hare seems like much more of a lazy island dweller than a smug villager.
Somewhat related. When I first started playing I saw a guide that said that a certain project could only be suggested by a normal villager. I thought what is a normal villager? Aren't they all normal? That didn't last long. I agree that some of the villagers behavior and such don't agree with their personality type.
