Rudy is actually in my town right now, as is Annalisa. Those same two villagers were the last two villagers to move from her town, so I know I won't get them as I already have them. I just wondered if I would get any villagers of hers before those two from her void into my town.

It's possible if she has any older voided villagers if you have room and they aren't among the last 16 to move out from your town. You won't get them if they moved to someone else's town (or if she cleared her void though I've read mixed opinions on whether it's guaranteed to work). If you want to be extra safe you can fill up your last villager spot or have her visit a full town.

I'm not sure if my question should go in this thread or somewhere in the villager trading plaza, but would someone mind explaining how people sell or give other players villagers? I keep thinking they know some sort of trick when it comes to selling or giving away villagers, and I'm kind of curious as to how they figure it out. Thank you in advance.

I don't know if this is a valid question for this thread so excuse me in advance ^-^
I like to earn my villager pics, some i have gotten fast some it takes me months. Is there any specific techniques to getting them?
Of course you have to be friend them i know that part but the rest i'm confused about.

When you have a villager in boxes (meaning they're in their house the day before they're supposed to move and all of their things are backed), you have someone come to your town, talk to that villager, and ask them to move to your town.
So, say I had Marshal in boxes and you wanted to adopt him. You'd come to my town, I'd show you where his house was, you go talk to him and ask him to move to your town. Usually within the next day or two he'll move to your town. Just make sure you have 9 or less villagers.

If you want a really simple way to get them, you could always TT to april fools day and do the event. You get every villager's picture that way.
I hope this is the right place to ask this.
But I've got a small worry hanging over my head. I'm doing a bit of TT to get a wet suit so I can do the diving trick to get my villagers to suggest more PWPs I don't usually TT that much but I've TT'd 3 days and the island still isn't selling a wet suit. My concern is one of my favorite villies is going to move out without me knowing. You know how they'll randomly ping you and say "Oh I want to explore other regions, so I'm moving out on so-and-so date of this month"? I know you can tell them no, but let's say I TT'd a day ahead and Tangy was meant to ping me yesterday to announce she was moving, will she go through with the move or does she have to get the Mayors view on it?

Your villagers can move without getting the chance to ask for your Mayor's permission. They don't have specific days to ping, though. The earliest is 5 days or so before their move out date but if they don't get the chance to ask you about it on that date, they can still ask later. I think the latest is 2-3 days before they move out.
If you're worried about your villagers moving out unexpectedly, just set your 3DS date to a week or more later. Start the game as a new character and check if anyone is missing from the map. If somebody is, set the 3DS date back again and use your mayor to talk to that villager. If they don't ping you, save and quit, and talk to them again. Do that a few times. If that villager isn't pinging you like they're supposed to, TT another day, talk to them again, and so on. Using the new character lets you check ahead and talking to that villager sometimes forces a ping when they're ready to ask you.
Alternatively, you can just start the game as a new character on each day and visit all the houses to see if anyone is in boxes. If they aren't, just quit without saving and load as your mayor. If they are, set the date back to when you last played as your mayor and stop them from moving.

I will also like to add, if a villager comes up and says "_____ is thinking of moving" but they don't ping you, talk to them then time travel that same day but an hour forward, walk past them and they should ping you. Talk to your most favourite villager (or two try to keep it short) about 12 times (you see why now, yess? lol) or until they "need to think" andd they start pacing around thinking. If they mention NO ONE is moving, you are pretty safe. I had Yuka leave on me after already saying no to her ping because i tt it felt like moments for me which was weird because i think it was a month apart for her. Good luck @Darrling.

Not if you TT backward or deny someone's request to move before you TT forward.
About the villager gossip thing, I never do that. It's too unreliable and time-consuming for me to walk around talking to all the villagers I want to keep that many times. Plus, sometimes my villagers don't mention anything and I know for a fact that someone is going to me. I just use a new character to check ahead and prevent it.

You don't have to talk to ALL of them i said atleast two to be sure. If they BOTH don't mention anyone then you're fine. Its worked for me.

Is it possible to give my resident character a path pattern from my Mayor?
I would use the QR code, but my resident doesnt have access to the sewing machine
no i'm sorry, you'll just have to access the sewing machine for your side character!
I didn't mention talking to all the villagers. I mentioned talking to all the villagers I want to keep. Either way, it's too time consuming for me so I don't care much either way... whatever works for you.

If you made the path pattern using your mayor character, it's possible. Just transfer it to a mannequin in the shop (pick an umbrella or hat so your villagers won't wear it) and then use your side character to get it.
wow i never even considered that. that's a good idea! in that case sorry lucitine for giving you false information! (does it not work with qr codes though?)

Question:
So Eugene is leaving my town on the 14th.
I'm going to TT forward to the 15th when he's left, yes?
And then I TT back to the present (12th).
Now I've recently got a villaher from a trade and she's unpacking today
1) will I screw anything up with her by TTing?
2) will any other villagers be wanting to move out/ping me to move/in boxes after my exploits?
Ha what a cycling noob.
Thanks! ^_^

DOn't quote me on this, but from what I know, it shouldn't stuff up anything(what you're doing) If you're really nervous, you can TT to the next day (villager has finished unpacking) then TT to the 15th. TTing bac k any amount of time is considered as one day, and since someone just moved out, no one should want to leave. Hope this helps ^^

Unfortunately you need to do the cycle, to get him back again.
