I did not expect this...

The first 5 villagers are a great way of obtaining personality-specific villagers. So finding someone like Audie, Dom, or Sherb are a lot more common. Because the game only chooses on a limited pool of villagers. The downside are their interiors though.

If I only knew that it was the case, I would've tried and spent more time faming Nook Miles at the start of the game just to get Punchy.

I've seen some people try to prove that you can somehow get good villagers but I've seen it's all in the luck. I've passed up a lotta good ones!

OK I BET YALL DID NOT EXPECT HER TO GET RAYMOND IN HER CAMPSITE AS HER FIRST CAMPER

 

[fluttershy300]

I rather get my favorite villagers later since they’ll do you dirty with the starter houses. At least when you get Audie you’ll see her cool tropical house!

i had her in a campsite, but my island was full

I have Audie since she popped out like 3x in my 100 mystery run, felt like she really wanted to come to my island so I took her, now that I got her photo I'm about to let her go.
My Audie story aside, its really all RNG, I literally saw every tier 1 villager in a mystery run except Raymond.

My sister got Audie on her first NMT! I got Molly on my first!
