What’s the best villager you’ve turned down on a mystery island?

[Lady Timpani]

I saw Zucker yesterday but passed him by. It seems like the octopuses are pretty easy to find on the island though, from what people have said.

 

[kiriod]

ive passed zucker like four times, and also passed sherb, bob, lucky, diana, and lolly

 

[Miss Misty]

So far: Julian, Whitney, Sherb, Diana, Lucky, Chief, Zucker (three times), and Dobie off the top of my head.

i left apollo and i think about it everyday lmao

In terms of villager popularity, I guess Diana.

For my own personal taste, I think it was Claude. I really, really want him on my island but I already have a rabbit so I turned him down.

Bob. I kind of regret it, but I also just didn't really want another lazy villager.

 

[Bioness]

Raymond, Audie and Judy.
All on the second day, I regret not inviting Judy.

You forgot your mic drop and having an explosion in the background.

 

[FireNinja1]

Bunnie. I'm not sure how popular she is, but I know that she's much more popular than most of the other villagers that I saw on Mystery Islands. Eventually, I found Rudy on a mystery island and settled for him (kinda was sick of just flipping through mystery islands at that point, even though I had only been on like 10 or something at that point lol).

A popular villager I remember passing up on was Diana which I don't regret because I'm not too fond of her anyway.

 

[alpacalypse]

i've passed on marina, fauna, and pietro, as well as every wolf except for audie and chief c': it helps that i have a very specific list of villagers i'm looking for, so that i'm never tempted to pick anyone else up and never have that "what if?" regret~

I turned down Chrissy because I needed a spot for a cranky villager, but it’s ok now.

 

[whimsycreator]

Haven’t had much, I tend to snatch up the first one I see who remotely appeals to me because I’m so paranoid I won’t see another that I will like as much.

But I did turn down Rod. I think he’s quite cute, but I already have a Jock I like. (Sly, I think he’s adorable. I got him from a random Amiibo card I happen to have.)

 

[biksoka]

Marshal...I don't remember why but I got Tasha 3 after him and invited her

 

[Vadim]

3x in a row on Fang, 3x Marina, 3x Zucker, Lolly and Julian at the top of my head. Was searching for Ankha, Lucky and Hopper

 

[eggmoon]

I ran into Audie twice when I was island hopping yesterday, was only my second island the first time i saw her too! she's definitely a cutie but honestly I'm just not that keen on wolf villagers, I just dont vibe with them for some reason :')
I passed on Sherb and Fauna too, that was rough lol. I nearly caved and invited Fauna back to my island but I already have 2 normals so I decided not to. But I got one of my dreamies Bruce a couple of islands later so there were no regrets in the end!

 

[th8827]

I kind of regretted not taking Soleil a few weeks ago, but it turned out ok because I eventually found a Dreamie.

 

[Rambo]

...Audie, at the beginning of the game. I regret it a lot.

I always run into her on islands and I just take her to trade. I don’t really see the appeal. She’s the worst wolf IMO. There’s way way better peppy villagers or rather peppy villagers I prefer more that are available for a pittance. Obviously it all comes down to personal preference but yeah she isn’t for me. I do hope you find her though if she’s a big Iso. I’ve found her quite a bit. If I snag her again, I’ll reach out to you

i passed on rosie, marina, zucker, melba, lucky, and bangle! and all of these guys were within my first 20 nmt

 

[Fisher]

Passed on Stitches at the very beginning of the game because I already had two bear villagers. I got Bob as my lazy though so in the end turned out good.

Recently passed on Dom too, was really hard to pass him up had to think on it for like 10 minutes lol.

 

[Lilybells]

I passed up on Sherb the first time I saw him on a mystery island. But thankfully I found him again in the campsite and snatched him up right away!
