Just wondering, who are your favorite non-mainstream (ie. not commonly traded) villagers? Just looking for some needle in the haystacks there. I have too many normal and lazy villagers though hah.
He's a lazy, but Papi is just absolutely adorable and he's hardly ever mentioned. He's super unique too! Definitely far from mainstream (though he should be )
I love love love Hamphrey. That tiny cranky hamster with his huge tooth is the cutest thing ever. I also like Colton an how he looks like a prince. Raddle and Jeremiah are pretty great too. Also Olive, the little cub that always gets overlooked because of Maple.
In my first NL town I had Pango as a starting villager and she grew on me cause she threw my mayor a birthday party that first year. I'm also partial to Beardo and Lionel because they have mustaches and it makes me laugh. Caroline was my very first island villager back in the GC days, so she is pretty nostalgic for me. I also really like Mira because she's a super bunny.
Caroline and Sally were the first that came to mind, but they're both normals. Claudia (snooty pink tiger with blue heart patterns on her head!!) is pretty great - I was holding her for my sister a few weeks ago and was unexpectedly sad to see her go. I also love Bruce (cranky deer... but most of the deer designs are nice imo) and Pecan (snooty, and another squirrel, surprise). There are tons of cute villagers not in the upper tiers.
Gruff! I know he's cranky, but he's an adorable green goat and he's usually p nice once you befriend him. <3 He's good friends with Billy and Sherb now.
I have a soft spot for Sally, she was my absolute favourite in Wild World and she's so darn cute. She has the normal personality so she's also really sweet and that made me love her even more
