For all this time (ive been playing a year n a half, before here i lurked on acnl tumblr blogs) ive never seen Bruce asked for or in anyones towns. Almost made me think i was making him up! So I decided to pop him in my second town and lo and behold! Hes not a myth :D Im assuming Bam just over shadowed him as designated blue deer (or ive just been looking in all the wrong towns aha).
What average villagers do you just never seem to spot? Do they have more recognized counterparts? :D
 
This is a really interesting question!

I think there are tons of examples of this but here's a couple for me. This is a list of all the Jock birds: Jay, Jitters, Peck, Sparro.

For me of that list I could picture Peck because of his kind of dead eyes, but the other three? Wouldn't have known who they were!

One more example, lazy dogs: Marcel, Walker, Biskit, Bones, Lucky, Benjamin....wait who's that last guy?
 
i hardly ever see anteaters! personally im not a fan of them, but in a certain town they could work.
 
In ever see Henry the smug frog! He's my favorite villager in my whole town! I think it's because Lily is cuter as a "normal looking" frog and Marshal is a more popular smug, but Henry is still the best!

I had Jay as my starter in my second town, had jitters too but his eyes kinda scare me :( the lazy dogs are probably some of my favourites though, its really neat to know what villagers are still a mystery to different people.

Olaf and Antonio stand out to me, but i can just never remember who the other ones are...

Oh wow Henry is super cute! I havnt seen many towns with frogs in them either, but i can defs see Henry working in a more natural town!

Also one more thing, i know he is 'bottom of the barrel' tier, but ive never seen someone else share my love for Phil :0 I guess theres better smug options but Phil just really fits the part for me. Those eyes! <3
 
There's the lesser known peppy tiger, Bangle. When I first saw her in a hide and seek tour, I wanted her instantly! Funny enough I see stuff about Bianca all the time, but never Bangle. Lucky for me someone was very nice enough to give her to me today!
 
Recently, I don't usually see Leonardo, Sheldon, Timbra, Ed, Rocco, Al, Barold, Tipper, Ava, T-Bone and Robin hardly at all. I can see why, though. Except for Leonardo.

When reading this i thought bangle WAS bianca! They do sound kind of similar...

When cycling I once had Al, Violet and Rocket in my town all at once and i really dont enjoy them, but if i did have to pick, Al does have a bit of charm being an actual gorilla. Actuallh Id be really interested to see if someone genuinely enjoys Rocket.
I guess a lot of those (robin mainly) suffer from Too Average that any other more interesting villagers of the same kind kinda take over the lime light :/

I had Cheri for a while in my town and ADORED her but I feel like I never see her anywhere! Also I find Pippy absolutely adorable. And almost all of the eagles are very underrated!

Dude I adore Benjamin and looked everywhere for him so I could have him in my town.

I feel like Poncho, Fauna, Beau, Maple, Dizzy, Blaire and pretty much all the birds save for Jacques are pretty average looking.

That's actually really funny, because I have both Maple and Dizzy! Two of my dreamies <3

I'm sure every villager has at least one person that loves them!
 
Blaire seems to be one that's not often seen.

I've have only seen Marina. I have never seen the other two octopuses. I think they are fairly popular, but I always talk to the villagers when dream visiting, and have still never seen them.
 
I've never seen a Kangaroo or Koala in anyone's town yet. Mathilda is my bestie and I unfortunately lost Lyman while on holiday.
I'd happily have an all Kangaroo & Koala Town.
 
Lots of pigs and frogs don't show up. One of my favorites, Bud, has only shown up once in a dream, but that was when I saw that all lion town.

I feel like Pinky gets a ridiculously small amount of attention and I really don't get why. Maybe I'm just biased since she's one of my favorites but I can't imagine very many people dislike her in any way, she just never seems to come up in dream towns or forum discussions 99% of the time. :confused:
 
i didn't think vesta was a real thing; then i saw her and i can now saw i've seen the face of hell.

I agree, i have Curt too and he's really the best !

Personally i didn't even know that Naomi, Patty and Tipper existed, i'd never heard of them before !
