• Guest, have you picked up a fortunate cookie from the shop? You must have the "Fortune Cookie (2026)" item in your inventory to receive a collectible from The Luck of the Dragon raffle. Time is running out and the raffle results will be randomized soon!

Do you have any villagers you wanted that you regretted once you got them?

i have said this before and i'm gonna say it again lol
i found sherb the other day, and anyone who knows me knows that i am so easily scared haha
sherb was one of my dreamies so when i found him i obviously invited him straight away
but after entering his house i noticed he had hypno k.k. playing and that song freaks the heck outta me and i started hearing it in my sleep so 2 days later i had him off my island, not soon enough though 😂

I ended up gifting Sherb another song to try and replace it. He was playing the new song last time I was in his house, but not sure how often they change their music up after you gift them new songs.
 
Well not in New Horizon, but in City Folk I had Rod and was so happy, because I restarted many times to get him. But after a while he got on my nerves, always asking me for Rare Fish I couldn’t possibly catch for him. It got worse over the time and soon it became a daily task which I couldn’t finish. At this moment, I wished I could get rid of him.
Hahaha, I had the exact same problem with Rod, but in Wild World. It made me dislike him quite a bit.
 
When I heard about the new villagers, Audie looked soooo cute to me!! She's adorable, and I love wolf villagers. And peppys are adorable. I got her in a (pretty cheap, thankfully) trade pretty early in the game and I was happy to have her. Once I started talking to her, she pretty much only gave me dialogues i had heard exactly from my first peppy villager, Pate. I wasnt too keen on Pate at first but she grew on me so much after I got her and we eventually became besties. So Audie just feels kind of off for me.. I still have her, and love her because her design is so nice. But ive found myself considering trading her which i didnt really expect. So I dont totally regret getting her, but she didn't live up to all my expectations...
 
i found kid cat on a mystery tour and said screw it and invited him to my island since i liked him, until i realized that good god his house exterior was ugly and didn't fit my town at all. i didn't want to have more than one jock anyway so i let genji stay since i like him just as much but his house exterior fit my town and gave kid cat to a friend. ;_;
 
it's not necessarily "regretting" but early on i chose to drop a normal in favor of four smugs, and i'm regretting that decision. like i really like colton, but i don't like him as much as i liked lolly when she was in my campsite, but at the time i was trying to open a plot for marshal... so in general, i'm definitely considering dropping colton, though it may end up coming down to reactions and diys that actually sends me over.
 
Rosie, twice. idk why i keep going back to her i don't really like her at all
OMG same! I have her Amiibo and i used it to kick Bubbles out,because i was villager hunting and saw Bubbles on an island,as soon as i saw her i left. I only had one NMT left,and found Piper. I thought her design was too basic,so i left her. I decided to just let a random villager move in. Believe it or not,it was BUBBLES! I was so mad,i used Rosie's Amiibo just to get rid of her. I actually really do not like Rosie,i liked her more in New Leaf. I want her to move out ASAP.
 
I finally got Marshal recently, and I thought i’d love him bc I had him in New Leaf but now that I have him he’s kinda just meh. Maybe i’ll fall in love with him a lil more eventually, but after having Julian for so long (he was my first campsite villager) I really grew to love Julian’s sass, but I let him go because I wanted Marshal so bad. But now that I have him, I kinda just think of Julian when I talk to him.

Same with Zucker and Sherb, I just didn’t feel like either suited the lazy personality. They didn’t really fit that “little kid” image for me, even though I wanted them to bc their designs are so cute.
 
Julian. Twice. It's really a bummer because I still think that he's sooo beautiful, I love his house and he really fits my town. But I don't know why I can never form a real attachment to him. I had him in NL and gave him away and I'm considering doing it again in NH.
Maybe it has to do with a thing I've noticed happening to me, that I tend to value much more the villagers I have found on islands then the ones I bought through here... But who knows, I'm still giving Julian a third chance, maybe he'll grow on me
 
Probably Merengue for this game. I decided to trade for her early on since I got her from a close friend here back in 2014 and she hasn’t logged back on for a really long time. So kinda decided I want to have her as a tribute to her on my island. But then, I found other Normals I decided to try as well on islands. Namely Maple, Marina, and Lily. They definitely grew on me more than Merengue. I was able to give Lily to someone who had her as their dreamy, but might let Merengue go once I see someone I like in the campsite. After all anyways, I still have the Merengue I got from my friend in my New Leaf town.
 
Zucker...i thought it was fate that i found him on a tarantula island and my as my final original 10 but then I found out my sister has him and then found out that he's a pretty common villager. He's cute and unique yes but those little things made him feel not too special for me and i like alot of Lazies like Punchy, Stitches and I want them thinking of replacing poor Zucker :p

This was almost me. I was so close to inviting Zucker, but for whatever reason I don't like him nearly as much as I did in NL. I miss his old shirt... maybe that's a large part of it, because I thought it fit him much better.
 
Audie. I found her on a mystery tour and was so so excited for her. When she came to my town her house automatically Clashed with the 'vibe' of my town. I also really didn't think her personality as peppy fit her all too well. And she was always working out, like for whatever reason whenever I saw her she was either in the town square or outside her ouse working out. It kind of bothered me a bit. I ended up letting her go to someone else who wanted her a lot more than I did
 
Merengue for me. I really wanted her and loved her design since NL days. But I never saw her do much on my island and was kinda boring, my best memory of her is her interacting with my vending machine so that's not saying much. I ended up moving her out but I'd like her back one day to give her another chance though. She's still very cute

Reactions: Fye
Bruce. He's such a beautiful deer (/goat) and his house is pretty unique (its literally an alley haha) but talking to him just felt kind of off. I feel like if he was a smug or jock I would have kept him, but the cranky dialogue didn't suit his appearance, especially when compared to my other cranky - Wolfgang.
 
Maple. I saw her on a mystery island and invited her to my island with a quickness because she was the cutest little teddy graham cracker. The problem is that she's just kinda dull and just there. I connected much more to my other villagers, even Ed who I didn't like much at first.
 
I remember really wanting Molly but then I got her and she was my 6th normal and I just felt kind of meh at that point
 
I always wanted Merengue and Marina in NL and I got them both in NH but the normal personality is so... meh. I'm really disappointed with it. I'll sell them both on soon I think.
I'm also experiencing smug fatigue hahah - I have Eugene and Lopez both saying the same dialogue and it's driving me nuts.
 
I have to add Merengue to this. I love her and had her in my New Leaf town, but she was too similar to Tia whom I was never going to part with. Even if I looked past their identical personalities, they are roughly the same size and both have design themes around food/tea, which was bugging me enough to let her move out when she asked.
