My issue was fixed using an Amiibo. I've got a couple laying around. If someone needs help, PM me with your issue, and I'd be happy to send you an Amiibo to potentially resolve the problem. All I ask is that you send it forward.
You can have a look at this. It's not safe to trade villagers now. There is always a risk.

Hey could explain how it fixed it? Did you have to overwrite the glitched villager? Could you just move somebody new in?
You could use the link I commented above. It might help
Hey did you have to kick the glitched villager out?

Yep, that's exactly what I had to do. I used an Amiibo to do it. It took 4 days, but it worked!

For me, upon using Amiibo to gain a 10th villager I wasn't prompted to kick her out, the new guy just moved right in and Fauna was gone.

Hello,
Thanks for your previous response. Do you have any indication as to when the next patch will be, as I’ve now had this glitch for 6 days and it is preventing me from continuing the game. I know it is not your department that deals with this but if there is any estimate as to when this can be fixed it would be appreciated if possible. This is now happening to a lot of people and trading villagers is no longer deemed safe.
Kind regards,
Christian

Am I just unlucky or will a campsite villager not ask to move out the glitched villager? I have spent a literal 2 hours trying to get my camper to ask to move out the glitched villager and all she keeps offering is all of my other villagers. I even had someone move in after I got the glitched one and the camper offered to kick that villager twice. I thought they usually wouldn't offer to kick the newest villager.

No, I'm pretty sure the campsite visitor won't ask to move out the glitched villager. I also spent like 2 hours resetting to try to do this (I reset at least 30 times) but the glitched villager never came up. I suppose both of us could just have really bad luck, but it's more likely that the glitch just can't be fixed this way.
Only surefire fix right now is amiibo
Well damn. That sucks. Guess I'll just be stuck with the glitch until a patch comes out as I don't have any amiibos to invite.

Some have reported success with time traveling forward in increments or time traveling backward. Some have also said that complaining about the villager to Isabelle multiple times, or moving the villager's house have fixed it. If you haven't already tried all these things, it's worth a shot, but I did all of them (except moving the house, because the glitched villager didn't even show up as an option there) and the amiibo was the only thing that worked for me. :\ Fingers crossed for a patch soon!
I don't want to TT. I have nothing against those who do, I just don't want to do it. I've tried complaining to Isabelle and its not worked. Like you the option to move the house isn't available for me so I'll just have to wait. Hopefully, we get a patch soon.
this had happened to me as well, but i hadn't actually adopted a villager. i think i was trading or i had talked to a villager while i was trading and it just happened. my fix was that i just waited and eventually they actually moved out and some other villager was able to move in! my fix was just time though i see that not everyones problem can be fixed like mine :c

Yeah, I get it. I don't normally TT but I broke my policy this time out of desperation. Guess all we can do now is keep reporting it to Nintendo
How long did you end up waiting before they moved out? Friday will be 2 weeks with this glitch for me.
I may have to if they don't fix this soon. I have reported it already and all they said was they would send it to the proper department/development team or something along those lines.Yeah, I get it.

Customer support doesn't get any updates from the developers on whether the bug is being fixed or where it is in development. They literally have no information to give you.
