Animal Crossing Octopus - Is it really the rarest villager?

With almost 400 villagers in Animal Crossing there's more than enough neighbours for everybody, yet, it has come to our attention that there is a whole bunch of people searching Animal Crossing Octopus on our site, clearly trying to rummage through our pages to find out more information on these elusive villagers. It's totally justified because Octopuses are the rarest villagers in Animal Crossing.

If you're, somehow, unfamiliar, Animal Crossing is a social sim series that initially came out for Nintendo and later for mobile platforms including Android and iOS. While it's always had a cult following, Animal Crossing New Horizon did phenomenally well, and the AC system of filling the calendar with events has kept people coming back. For the first time in a mainline entry, however, new events and features were added to the game over time, through seasonal updates, evolving the game massively over its first twelve months on the market.

In Animal Crossing Octopus is the rarest animal

Regarding the Octopus Villagers, basically, they are one of the rare species in the game with only four of them out there. These fall into the personality types of Jock, Normal, Cranky and Lazy.

The Octopuses are Inkwell, Marina, Octavian and Jocker. Each of them has its own unique style and habits. Of all of them, you've most likely come across Octavian, the most common of the four of them.

Today, we will take a detailed look at all the octopuses in Animal Crossing. Also, if you are looking for the best villagers to try out in Animal Crossing then we've already got you covered, check out the link below.

While dealing with Marina, make sure you don’t encounter villagers that are Sisterly or Cranky if you are not looking to create any sort of conflict between them. Apart from these villagers, Marina can get on quite well with others.

Zucker

Next, we have Zucker, the Cranky Octopus Villager also known as Takoya, a famous Japanese snack. He likes baton twirling and loves to wear a Flan Tank and a tee. Apart from his baton skills, his ambition is to become a professional chef someday.

As such, he usually talks about food. Beyond that, he likes to discuss superheroes and tales related to them.

Octavian

The last octopus on the list, Octavian is an aspiring fisherman whose only request is for you to build him a squid-showdown citadel. You wouldn’t like to mess with Octavian as he belongs to the Cranky group. The only way to get associated with him is by matching up his thoughts and decisions.
