There are a few special NPCs that are notably missing from the game, but most players don't realize that a lot of villagers were left out, too. THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY

Woolio

Almost like a combination of Muffy and Pietro, Woolio was a purple sheep who had the Jock personality. He wears a polka-dotted scarf, has purple fur, a big green star on his face, and is constantly wearing sunglasses. All the sheep in the Animal Crossing series are unique and this one that was featured only in the original Animal Crossing games before being taken out of the series.

Huggy

Huggy that appeared only in the original Animal Crossing games. Instead of being a reference to something Australian like Canberra, Sydney, and the other koalas in the modern games in the series, Huggy's name was a reference to the fact that koalas "hug" onto trees. Huggy has not been featured since 2003's Dōbutsu no Mori e+, and it seems unlikely she will be making another appearance soon.

Tarou

Although that were introduced with the first game in the Animal Crossing franchise, a game that was released exclusively in Japan, also appeared in the western localization of the game, this villager was completely exclusive to the Japanese game. Tarou is a Jock wolf that only appeared in Dōbutsu no Mori e+, the Japanese re-release of the first game in the franchise. Though there are a number of other wolves in the series, this one never made its way out of that one game.

Pierre

Like Tarou, Pierre is a Jock cat who exclusively appeared in Dōbutsu no Mori e+ and was never brought back for another game in the franchise. Pierre's design is meant to look like a mime with his pale skin, painted on markings around his eyes, and colorful clothing. Another character limited to the earlier games, Pierre has only one appearance to his name, Dōbutsu no Mori e+.

Bow & Meow

Bow and Mow were that only appeared in the Japanese game Dōbutsu no Mori e+ and could only be moved into a player's town if they scanned the e-reader card associated with each of these characters. These characters were designed to look like the Bowlingual and Meowlingual devices, a pair of electronic devices sold in Japan in the early 2000s that were supposed to translate cat and dog noises into human speech.

Quetzal

Quetzal was a Jock eagle that appeared in . This villager is likely a reference to the mythological creature known as the Quetzalcoatl. Quetzalcoatl is a figure from Mesoamerican mythology and is a combination of a serpent and a large bird. Quetzal has face paint on and wears red, white, and green clothing as his default outfit. Despite the fact that this villager has such a unique design, it's one that never made it past the original games in the series.

Pigleg

Pigleg is a Jock pig that appeared in the original GameCube games in the series. This character is a pig that is also a pirate and its name is a clever play on the idea of pirates having a "peg leg" when they have one of their legs replaced by a wooden peg. This pig has an eye patch, some serious facial hair, and a bandana to tie together its pirate-inspired appearance.

Yodel

Yodel is a Lazy personality type gorilla islander that only appeared in the original games in the Animal Crossing series. This villager is dressed like a hiker ready to go into the snowy mountains and his initial catchphrase is "odelay," a reference to the sound people make when they yodel. Rather than being a villager that lives in the town with the players, Yodel was actually an islander that would stay on the Island in the game that could be accessed . Some fan-favorite villagers like Ankha, June, O'Hare, and Caroline also started as islanders.

Nosegay

Nosegay was a Normal personality type anteater that appeared in all the original Animal Crossing games. Being a Normal personality type means that Nosegay would get along with just about every other villager, regardless of their personality type. The inside of Nosegay's house featured several paintings and gyroids.

All The Sanrio Villagers

The "Welcome Amiibo" update of Animal Crossing: New Leaf introduced the campsite where special villagers would park their RV each day and players could buy items from them with MEOW Coupons. Special Amiibo RV cards were made for Sanrio villagers like Chai, Toby, Rilla, and Chelsea. When scanned in, these special villagers would park their RV at the campsite and would sell furniture and clothes that were designed to match a specific Sanrio character. These characters could also be asked to move into the player's town.
