have you ever moved an ACNL player-character to a new town? what are pro's and cons?

when you move a player-character to a new town, from what i've read, it has to be a non-mayor character, and when they move it has to be to a new cartridge and they become that town's mayor, right?

i assume the moving character keeps their house, bells and possessions.

what about their badges?? and their encyclopedia??

I'm pretty sure it keeps everything. I wanted to do this with Fox for my 2nd town but with all my map resetting it's likely I would've ended up losing him.

Hey I have a noob question. If I moved Diana into a new town when I put her in boxes is she in my 16 cycle or no? I don't want her back but I am just wondering.

woops- I meant moving a player-character, not a villager...

I found these threads; click here and here. They don't mention badges or the encyclopedia, but it makes sense that you'd get to keep those as well.

thanks

does anybody know about badges and encyclopedia?

Yes, I moved Diana from Startown to Heaven and everything was saved, house, encyclopedia, badges, etc.
I'm not sure on this, but I don't think that you can reset maps and stuff when you start a new town when moving a character. I didn't reset maps because I wa afraid Diana's data would be lost. But I'm not 100% sure on this.
