Villager Hunting General Thread

[smug villager]

My boyfriend has been begging me to use my NMTs to find Sasha, or as he calls him the "cute rabbit twink from the trailer," but I ended up getting Zoe and Carmen instead.

 

[Miss Misty]

First time island hopping since the 2.0 update and I found Shino within 10 tickets! I don't know if I plan on keeping her over Audie, but I couldn't just pass her up.

Pinky asked me to move out recently and since she was only meant to be a temporary villager, I agreed! So off I went on another villager search. I am still sorta looking for Henry the frog, although I have really been enjoying having Ken as my smug villager so I entered this search with an open mind~

why am I not getting any villagers on mystery islands, nook miles islands have a villager every time (i have an empty plot and trying to find a villager)

You can only villager hunt on mystery islands with a nook miles ticket via Dodo Airlines and not through Kapp'n's mystery island tour.

Kapp’n mystery island tours are designed to help you gain more materials (in and out of real time seasonal gameplay) even though you never know which island you’ll land on. Nook mile mystery islands tours also help you gain more materials as well as aid you in villager hunts when need be etc. The only character you’ll find on a Kapp’n mystery island tour is Brewster after Blathers asks you to go and hunt him down to kickstart Brewster’s Cafe in the Museum.

However you can only go on Kapp’n island mystery tours once a day (unless you time travel but that will eat away at your hard earned nook miles faster and won’t stop a plot from autofilling either). Where as you can go on as many nook mile mystery island tours depending on the amount NMT you have. It’s why they’re used as another form of currency on trading sites like Nookazon. The more tickets you have the better chance you have of obtaining your dream villager if don’t have their amiibo cards.

thank you for the help, I’m still confused tho because I googled it and everywhere it says that kapp’n’s mystery islands have villagers in them as long as you have a free plot, and I have been to those many times in one day, I feel like I’m either missing something or I have a glitch?

Are you flying to mystery islands or going on a boat by Kapp’n who sings to you? I go on Kapp’n mystery island tours daily and have never met villagers on them even when I have a plot free.

I go by boat, how can you fly there? and I have never had a villager there either but I thought other people have, that’s why I’m so confused :'D

You’re definitely going on a Kapp’n island tour but you can go on other mystery island tours via Dodo Airlines with a Nook Miles Ticket. Just head to the airport and let Orville talk you through your options. You’ll only find villagers on those mystery islands if you have a vacant plot on your island. If you don’t then you won’t see villagers appear on those mystery islands.

It makes no sense to go villager hunting via Kapp’n as his tours are designed to be a once a day activity. It also makes no sense for villager hunts because you’re trading your hard earned Nook Miles for Kapp’n’s mystery island tours. Even if you time travel forward a day you’ll waste your Nook Miles faster and the vacant plot will auto fill after 24 hours or so.

Like I’ve said before it’s why other players go on mystery island tours via Dodo Airlines with vast amounts of Nook Miles Tickets in their inventory. The more tickets you have the more mystery islands you can visit with a higher chance of coming across your dream villager.

okay now I get it! I just didn’t know nook miles ticket islands were called mystery islands tours too, I thought that was only for kapp’n islands, thanks for all the help!

 

[Romaki]

Got another "bad" villager circled out, now I'm looking for Coco as my final dreamie atm. Let's see how that goes...

 

[pottercrossing]

I recently found Tiansheng in my campsite, and had I not changed my list of dreamies, I would have freaked out even more than I did. I took him anyway.

 

[iiyyja]

I picked up Kyle on my 7 tickets

 

[Tobiume]

Been going what feels like mountains of NMTs to find Moe! I told myself I wasn't going to take in any more normal villagers since I already have Marcie and Norma but I came across Merengue today - how could I resist? At least they're all kind of colour coordinated.

Worst villager find so far on the islands has been Rocket - she stayed for basically forever in my New Leaf town so I think I still have a bit of a grudge from that (':
