Arowana on May 31st???

[Penguin222]

So Gwen asked me to catch her an Arowana but when I looked it up it said they arent available til June and its May 31st... What should I do???

 

[WonderK]

I advise you go up to her and smack her on the head. Then, tell her that they aren't available at this time of year.

 

[hemming1996]

Leave it. Villagers ask for uncatchable bugs a lot.

 

[Swiftstream]

Go and push her into a pitfall then run away

 

[Penguin222]

lol thanks everyone

 

[Silvery]

Tell her to check the calender next time.

Kinda reminds me of the time Flora once asked me to catch a snail even though there was no rain on that day, so I refused her request.

You could go on an island tour where catching fish isn't the main goal.

They must have arrived a day early. Marina asked for a Goliath beetle. Either that, or the game can't distinguish between pre- and post-midnight for bug/fish availability.

Either that, or the game can't distinguish between pre- and post-midnight for bug/fish availability.

I figured that must be it since one AC day starts at 6 a.m., and so monthly changes at 12 a.m. end up getting lumped into that day, although it's a little wonky even considering that.

Today, Benedict asked me get him a Cicada. Regular Cicadas on trees don't even appear until July. However, the Lantern Fly counts as a Cicada (don't ask me why), and the Lantern Fly starts showing up in June. However, Benedict is a Lazy Villager and would have went to sleep at 11 before the Lantern Fly would even have a chance of appearing (island doesn't count since they don't ask for bugs/fish that are only available on the island at a given time).

Yeah, the villagers already start asking for June's bugs. Yesterday Pekoe asked for a cicada ._.

 

[Hypno KK]

I've been asked for unobtainable things before. On a sunny day (the day before had been sunny too) I was asked for a snail, I was asked for a pond skater bug but when I looked all over town at different hours those were nowhere to be seen, and I've been asked for non-native fruits I hadn't grown yet (they were still just saplings). Not even in a "if you go to your friends' towns and they have this fruit could you bring me one" but that villager actually said they'd seen some growing on a tree earlier. Which was, of course, a lie.
