Duck villagers… possibly the best species in the game. There is just something about them with their size and wide-set eyes and stature. You gotta love them. If you are considering adding a duck villager to your island and wondering who is the right choice, maybe this list will help.
This is an opinion piece, so there are no right or wrong answers! Just sharing my own personal thoughts.
Here are 10 duck villagers in Animal Crossing that truly stand out among the rest. Counting down from…
#10: Drake
You want a mallard, you got a mallard. Drake is the very definition of normcore with his design. It’s really simple and wonderful. A few fun facts: he has a lazy personality, his favorite colors are red and brown, his catchphrase is “quacko,” and he has the play hobby.
#9: Joey
I love a good classic yellow duck and Joey is pretty cute. The only reason he loses points with me is the diaper… I am just not feeling it. But other than that, he’s a solid lazy duck choice and works great on springcore islands. A few fun facts: he has a lazy personality, his favorite colors are green and blue, his catchphrase is “bleeeeeck,” and he has the play hobby.
#8: Maelle
The coolest snooty duck because check out that bob. Something about her just looks like no-BS and I really enjoy that for her. And like Joey, I also love how she has the classic yellow duck coloring. A few fun facts: she has a snooty personality, her favorite colors are white and pink, her catchphrase is “duckling,” and she has the fashion hobby.
#7: Freckles
Have you seen the meme about Freckles looking like she woke you up to tell you she just threw up? It couldn’t be more accurate. And somehow, it works for her. Her wide-set eyes and freckled face is simply adorable. A few fun facts: she has a peppy personality, her favorite colors are green and colorful, her catchphrase is “ducky,” and she has the fashion hobby.
#6: Ketchup
Who wouldn’t love a duck based entirely on a tomato? It’s simply perfection, really. Plus look at her adorable eyes. Ketchup is one of the coolest gimmicky villagers. A few fun facts: she has a peppy personality, her favorite colors are white and aqua, her catchphrase is “bitty,” and she has the play hobby.
#5: Deena
Deena is often overlooked but I enjoy her shy and gentle disposition. Her eyes look like she’s up to something and already asking for forgiveness… but it’s cute. A few fun facts: she has a normal personality, her favorite colors are blue and colorful, her catchphrase is “woowoo,” and she has the education hobby.
#4: Weber
Would you look at that endearing bowl cut and those half-lidded eyes. Weber is a whole mood and I am here for it. He also has a great natural color that is perfect for natural and forestcore island aesthetic. A few fun facts: he has a lazy personality, his favorite colors are blue and black, his catchphrase is “quaa,” and he has the nature hobby.
#3: Pate
Oh sweet Pate. She is the cutest blue duck around. Her peppy personality makes her extra adorable, with lots of zing and enthusiasm for just about everything. I slept on her for a while but now I’m never letting her go. A few fun facts: she has a peppy personality, her favorite colors are yellow and white, her catchphrase is “quackle,” and she has the fashion hobby.
#2: Bill
As far as jock villagers go, Bill is the best of the best. He has a great color and his design is super sweet. His eyes are wide and cartoon-like in an endearing way and speaking from experience, this duck rocks the hell out of cardigans and sweaters. OH and a pair of glasses. Just precious. A few fun facts: he has a jock personality, his favorite colors are blue and purple, his catchphrase is “quacko,” and he has the play hobby.
