Okay. So.
Last summer, I bought New Leaf. My first town was named Sweets. One of my starters was the normal chicken, Ava. She was my first villager I allowed to move out, and since I wasn't involved in the online AC community at the time, she went to the void. Again, this was last July.
Through time travelling efforts and cycling, I moved out close to thirty villagers after her. Some were adopted, some were voided. I also picked up other people's villagers from StreetPass, moved them out, etc. December of 2013, I reset my town and it is now known as Gallia, and I am in the process of cycling again. Just about every villager has been voided.
This is where my boyfriend comes in.
He bought New Leaf close to its release date on the eStore. He played it for two weeks, hated it, and deleted it from his 3DS. As I talked to him more about ACNL, he bought a new SD card and redownloaded ACNL so that I could look at his town. Yesterday we were hanging out, and I pulled out all his weeds for him (61), and talked to all his villagers and such.
A villager plot had appeared. Ava.
This evening, I asked him if he could check on his town really quick and talk to Ava and see if she was mine. I told him basically that I didn't think she was mine, explained StreetPass and the 10th villager, and also that I was incredibly doubtful but that I had a slight suspicion. The next text I get: "Sweets. Is that you?"
Despite the fact that Ava was voided last July, I've streetpassed right around 30 people, and I reset the town she was in and she hasn't appeared in my new town at all, she moved right into his town when he downloaded ACNL back to a new SD card.
I'm baffled. She was definitely cycled out long before I reset and everything. I just kind of took it for granted that she ended up in someone else's town long ago.
EDIT: for clarification, he did not have New Leaf on his 3DS on any point before we played near each other for the first time. He just redownloaded it this past weekend.
