Results of 76 Mystery Island Visits - UPDATED 32 MORE

[shrimplings]

Originally a hunt for Raymond but obviously failed because numbers aren't in my favor.

Looks at variables of Fruit, Flower, Hybrid, Villager, Bottle, and Shape. Will provide pictures of shapes soon. Maybe someone will find this useful.

Side info: From what I seen, you will see just literally 1 type of Foreign fruit or flower. My foreign was tulips + pears. With my native being mums + oranges.

UPDATE Added 32 more results. Found O-Shaped Waterfall and pretty much Jesus-Waterfall (3 way waterfall, 2nd level with it's own waterfall.) Still w ill plan on providing pics

Nice, thank you. So for the non-native flowers, do you remember what any of them were? Some people are theorizing that you can only get your native flower plus the limited flower types that Timmy and Tommy sell in the shop.

Yeah, all of the foreign flowers I saw were the same as my Timmy & Tommy shop's stock.

Once I get my 6th islander in, I'll be plopping down a plot and searching islands for a new villager as well. Not as specifically, but I'll have a list of acceptable islanders

This is very helpful, thank you for doing this. The flowers situation is extremely annoying.

 

[Xara]

thank you for sharing! it’s a shame we’ll only come across our native fruit and flower most of the time but i guess it makes finding foreign fruit and flowers more rewarding aha

If you're not looking for any specific villager but a general acceptable range of islanders, or looking for trade then island hunting is really forgiving!

I normally find a traditional dreamie or high tier every 7-10 tickets, but this 44 ticket run- it was h orrible.

 

[shrimplings]

Added 32 mystery island results, totaling 76 tickets.

Go d that was painful.

Thanks for the list! I'm kinda shocked over the amount of islands you found that had your native fruit and the same flowers.

Out of the ~10 trips I made so far, I only came across one island that had a foreign fruit (apples) and one island with bamboo. Otherwise, I always ended up on islands which had my native fruit and the same lame flowers. As for the few villagers I met, only Pango was the one I liked and asked to move to my island. The others were kinda meh. I hope I'm gonna find an island soon that has something more to offer, as spending so many miles for those tickets becomes a bit pricey over time.

 

[Saga]

Oh man, that's disheartening that you never encountered more than one foreign fruit or flower (and the flower was available in you shop). I wonder if that's universal, because I'm in the same boat after maybe 30 trips.

Thank goodness I managed to find one island with blue flowers (even if they were the same kind as in my store), and one island with one of my top tier villagers, Marina. Otherwise I would feel even more disappointed.

 

[Rosch]

Huh... my natives are Oranges and Lillies. The foreign ones I had were Pears and Tulips. My Nook's Cranny has Lillies, Tulips, Pansy and Hyacinth seeds.

Based on your research, does that mean I have to rely on trading with the others now?

 

[Cosmic_Insanity]

Only one tarantula island?! Are they just that rare or is that because you've been travelling during the day?

 

[ThomasNLD]

I must have been on around 20 trips, but I've yet to encounter the hybrid flowers island. Aside from tarantula hunting and some resource gathering, its not very worthwhile it seems.

I've done a few trips and my latest one involved my native fruit, hyacinths and no villager. I get the most useless islands

 

[niko2]

So this confirms that one of the most important new functions of the game is competely useless of you don't want to visit islands to search for a specific villager.
I was about to give up, after 10 travels (8 with native fruit, 1 with bamboo and one with foreign fruit), but now I'm sure I'll not visit isles anymore.
Thanks for the time you took to make this document!

It's useful for resources, fossils, getting that hidden item in a tree...

 

[Kurashiki]

Interesting how the game seems to limit you to only one type of foreign fruit and flower, thanks for sharing all this data and sorry that you haven’t had luck w Raymond!

 

[Amphibian]

I've also spent countless of tickets and the results so far have been really underwhelming (pretty much the same as OP)... What kinda annoys me is that if you bump into same villagers again they won't even remember you even if you spoke to them before

 

[Calysis]

I've done around 25 trips myself (also in an attempt for Raymond, rip) and it seems you've had a bit better luck than me when it comes to encountering different villagers. I've encountered Octavian, Bruce, and Leopold twice in the 25 times I've done it. ):

I do agree that it seems you can only encounter one foreign fruit. I have apples as my natives and all I ever see, aside from apples, are peaches.
