Five, when you are just starting out with a new town.
The game will then make 4 more move in, for a total of 9, and then one villager will ask to move out. From that point onwards, 8 is the minimum number you can have.

Midochlorians are the power house of the force
When a villager moves out, it is still stored in the games memory and will occasionally pop up in Main Street. When here, they will NOT move into your town, When 16 more villagers move out, this villager is no longer stored in your game, and is free to adopt again.

My question: what fairytale pwps are there?
Ok, is it normal I`m having such a hard time catching a tuna? I seriously can`t find one, I`ve been gunning for one since the start of the month. Are they more common at the island? Its driving me nuts.....

More dumb questions XD
-When villagers move in and out, are the houses permanent? Or does the whole house go and the new villager can be in a random location on the map? If it's the latter, won't thins mean that I have to make a new character every morning to make sure some NPC hasn't decimated my flower garden or orchid?
-When can I use QR codes and patterns to make paths in my city? I just got my gardening canter today, so it's time for some major city planning!

Houses are not permanent. New villagers can build houses anywhere they like. Only rocks and PWP's will stop them. So if you have specific plans for your town you will either need to create a new character and check or place PWP's as place holders to stop them.
You get access to the qr machine after I think a week. You have to talk to able sister at the sewing machine everyday to unlock it. ^^
I have 8 villagers. I did get a 9th one when I was testing out a new character this morning. I reset the game and the new villager house rope off poofed because I hadn't saved and I hated where the house was put.
Does this mean that for normal gameplay, typical players have to devote 30 mins on start up to making and deleting a new character just to make sure some random snot hasn't moved in in a bad place?
^_^; Or do people just fix the parts of village destroyed when villagers move? Isabelle tells you when you start up when a new villager sets up a house, but not the ropes...
I'm sorry, I guess I'm just not understanding this mechanic very well...
Thank you for your help.

If you have only 8 villagers you have the potential to have a random move in. I know lots of people who have specific town plans will creates new character if they have a potential move in number.
The 10th villager can only come from the campsite, street pass or wi-fi. So once you have 9 you can relax as long as you don't have street pass on and you don't visit or have someone visit your town.
It just depends how important villager placement is to you. ^^
When I had a few random move ins I either worked to have them move or worked around the villager if I loved them.

Oh, good. Thank you for that clear up 
Well, villager placement wasn't important to me until they all stayed in the same general spots! Now I really do have to care about that 9th guy because the one that roped off was way far away from everything and he had parked himself right where my flower garden was going to go ._. Bushes in particular seem to be a bit difficult to get a hold of and I'd hate to lose those.

A quick question!
Today I bought a 3DS XL system. As I don't have any downloaded/digital games (they're all physical copies), I'm wondering if it's necessary at all to do a system transfer for anything to do with New Leaf from my original 3DS which I've always played the game on. It's a silly question, but I just want to make sure I don't lose the save data and progress I've made in my town if I were to just pop the cartridge in and start playing without doing this system transfer. I hope someone knows! Thanks in advance!

No, cartridges can be played on any other 3DS right away, you're good to go!

I don't think it's set in stone, but for me it's always been 2 days (day 0, meet camper and invite; day 1, no camper; day 2 plot appears)
The last time my question got lost in the huge amount of new ones, so I'm asking again:
I need one of my dreamies to move out because their house is in an inacceptable spot. If I give him to someone and ask them to hold him, can I take him back right afterwards/after the next spot gets free or do I have to wait through the 16-villager-cycle? I'm unsure if the cycle is only for system-generated villagers and since I don't TT, I doubt I'll find anyone willing to hold my dreamie for an eternity, lol.

Yes, you'll have to wait for the 16-villager cycles, unfortunately. That applies to all villagers.
Okay, I'm having a hard time finding my tree furniture today...
Does furniture drop from non-fruiting fruit trees? I haven't been paying attention, so I can't remember if it does or not. Maybe it would be easier to just keep two regular trees and plant the rest as fruit.

No, I don't think so, fruit trees don't drop furniture, doesn't matter if they're bearing fruits or not. Not 100% sure though.
Ack, another question of mine that got never answered here because there was such a huge amount in a short time:
While someone told me that fruit trees don't turn pink in spring, I had asked if that was true for perfect fruit trees as well. While it hasn't happened in my town yet, I've heard that they stop giving fruit after some time and are then pretty much normal trees. Because of that, I would be interested in hearing how the game treats them in spring. Getting new trees able to turn pink this way would be way faster (and more profitable) than buying saplings, after all.
