30 Minutes of Useless Information about Animal Crossing 

The reason Pascal looks so much different from Lottie and Lyle is probably because they're river otters, while he's a sea otter. They have different shaped mouths, and sea otters have shorter, flatter tails. They also float on their backs. River otters are more sleek, have longer tails, and swim belly down like most aquatic animals.

I found out completely by accident that in New Horizons, if you shoot a present out of the sky directly above a simple well (the big stone well with no top cover), even if there are empty ground tiles surrounding it, the present will fall straight down into the well and disappear instead of bouncing off onto the ground. Considering how circumstantial it is, I just find it really funny that they even thought to add soemthing like that.

Lmao we all know why Ankha's popularity spiked and we're all ashamed which is why it dropped so fast 😂

16:55: Bluebear is actually a female villager. I have her on my island and everyone uses feminine pronouns for her. Also, she told me a story of the time she wanted to impress another girl in her class. And it was so wholesome.

“Jacks van has pumpkins on it, likely a reference to jacks head being a pumpkin” please I’m crying

Hide and seek is in New Horizons too, it just happens very rarely, but you’ll get approached by a villager who asks you to find 3 villagers within a time limit for a present. But I’m not sure what the algorithm is to get it to happen.

i share my birthday with isabelle and digby! as a kid i remember thinking “really? that’s my birthday too!” was just something isabelle said to everyone when inputting your birthday in new leaf and then feeling really special when i realized it wasn’t

The thing with the Wistful Painting only happens with the fake version. Other fake paintings and statues have some spooky things, too, like a handprint or key on their canvas' back or glowing at night.

About Isabelle french name, I just want to note that in this language, "town hall" can be translated as "mairie". So like: Marie... Mairie... Idk I think it a really cute word play

some of these facts were like, the fish in the museum are in tanks as a reference to the fact that fish live in water. lmao, great video, and I definitely learned something new!

The reason Lottie and Pascal look so different is because one of them is a sea otter and the other one is a river otter.

u had them reversed, 12:34 is tomodachi life and 12:39 is style savvy fashion forward (or rather girl's mode 3, since it's the japanese version)

should have mentioned that the silver axes have a use in new leaf, they always give a specialty stump design, when the gold axe functions differently

I had no idea that's how you got the golden axe in Wild World, pretty crazy! Speaking of the golden tools, whosever idea it was to have them break in New Horizons... I wish to have a talk with them >:(

I think when the snowboy says that he thinks he's an alien, I think he means that by the definition of "alien" as: "A being from a planet other than your own", not the typical thing you think of when the word "alien", and instead those generic aliens you see in so many forms of media. Heck, if any of us could travel to a different planet that had intelligent life forms, we'd fit the definition of "alien" that I think is what the snowboy means by that word. The word alien doesn't have to be directed solely on those generic shapes of aliens we all know of

I've never seen anyone talk about this but the person on the rescue service is resetti/someone close to him because if you try to use the rescue service with less than 100 nook miles he says something like "calm down resetti" so it is him or someone near him, probably his brother

Apparently, Blathers implies that he can fly if you donate something. I believe you have to donate a specific fossil to activate that dialogue.

5:15 I have the Pocket Camp phone widget and Pascal is one of the characters that appear the most. Occasionally he talks about how there’s “a lot of math in clothing” and “love your own geometry, maaan.” Now I know that he’s based on a mathematician… so it all makes sense!

i think we all know why ahnka had a random spike in popularity…

Desert Island Escape in New Leaf and Amiibo Festival contradicts Celeste’s flight problem as flying is her character skill.

I’m glad there’s a way to spend 30 minutes of my time now knowing I’m smarter.

Did not want the video to end lmao, super fun. I laughed way more than i should've when those 16:33 16:54 18:58 types of facts would come up ajdkslja Also nice to see the channel getting a sponsor !! Congrats! Im usually a silent watcher but i like this channel a lot so i had to say something. And my villager twin is Fuschia !!

I liked the facts involving easter eggs, and was looking forward to them, only to get "Bluebear's name is a reference to the fact she is a blue bear."

Ok that is hilarious about joan and Redd. Everyone talks about Tom vs Redd but i would rather want to see those 2.

Another useless fact: only one villager has a different name in the Dutch localization. Dom's name in Dutch is Donny, likely because "dom" is Dutch for "dumb". As for my birthday, I share it with Coco, the rabbit who looks like a Gyroid.

Thankyou Rocket Elijah for all your hardwork. I have seen many of your videos and watching your channel is ALWAYS a part of my chore routine. Doing chores while watching your videos is very fun and makes them less stressful.

Oh we both know why she had a spike in popularity 😏

19:43 this fact pissed me off when i found out about it. There is no option to set the switch to British english, so Isabelle uses the STUPID month-day-year system. I don't understand why there's no way to change it, especially when it is actually possible to do on the ACNH portion of the switch online app.

I really need to mention how much I love this channel and how happy your videos make me ❤ I am sharing my birthday with Chip and Becky ( December 9th)

Despite having Kyle on my island always i never realized him and I shared a birthday! I tend to time skip a lot so i always end up skipping my birthday or not play during the month of december in general, so it gave me a nice smile to see Kyle when i went to look.

11:38 Probably one of the reasons why sea otters and river otters are designed completely separately is that, in Japanese, they don’t share a common name. River otters are usually called カワウソ kawauso, whereas sea otters are ラッコ rakko. I for one had never made a connection until it’s pointed out in this video.

Huh, I always thought the Groundhog Day connection to resetti was through the movie where he keeps reliving the same day and Resetti complains about you replaying the same day over again.

Elijah is honestly the most underrated RU-vidr in the game right now. Elijah finna blow up by the end of the year, remember this comment!

Really nice thumbnail! I like how you implemented the Stolzflagge.

Yayyyy, a new thing to have as background noise that I’m actually interested in so I can concentrate while doing something!!!! :D

I can't wait for the fact that Ike and Poko are the only know villagers to be biologically related outside kangaroo (father and son respectively).

13:12 i really do hope your not kidding and someone out there is still not infected

Love your work Elijah! Keep it up!

I get so happy whenever you upload lolol

12:33 this is actually Tomodachi Collection: New Life (Japanese Tomodachi Life) 12:39 and THIS is Style Savvy: Fashion Forward

11:44 well, they are different kinds of otters. Lottie is a river otter, and pascal is a sea otter. Still weird that they look *that* different though.

About Pascal and Lottie… Lyle and Lottie are River otters while Pascal is a sea otter. So that’s why there different. Love the video! ❤

I remember Blanca. One thing I remember doing with her is drawing the face of Blaze the Cat on hers. I guess the closest a player without a Nintendo Switch Online account can get in NH is the treasure hunts. (With an NSO account, you can just... play hide-and-seek with your visitors, or your host and other visitors.) Now I'm imagining Redd selling you turnips on Sunday, then the day comes that Nook's Cranny will buy turnips at a higher price than you bought them for, and you go to sell them... only to find that they're made of foam rubber or something, so you completely wasted your money. Hmm. Yeah, I assume your bird-type villagers can't fly, as they have the same limitations on movement as their ground-bound neighbors: if a piece of land is surrounded by water and/or cliff edges with no bridge or ramp to it, they can't go there. They can't vault over the rivers, and they can't use ladders or vines to climb up or down. Snowboys are an alien civilization. They've been looking forward to the moment of their formation since they were still snowflakes. When they melt, they don't feel pain, and even find it fun. Is the rest of the water in the game alive and conscious? Including the water used to brew coffee, or found in baths and showers...? Wait, the tier list is still a thing? It seemed like they stopped maintaining it or something... Also, Mr. Resetti can just show up randomly at The Roost, no amiibo necessary. I guess you could also say that what an artist does with their own music is their business, and if they want to give out what they could be selling, and they're not under contract not to distribute like that... Of course, now you can buy his music, with what's available changing to a random one per day, with only a few not being for sale, but either by request only, or being given to you ONLY on the day you said was your character's birthday. There are also two Daisys: Daisy and Daisy Mae. And then there's Renée and Reneigh, and Tammi and Tammy. The kangaroo children remind me of Wade's floatie. You know, from U.S. Acres/Orson's Farm. I remember that Copper used to be suspicious of Katrina's true identity.

My birthday twin is Eugene, the coolest koala in history.

24:29 Props to you for actually mentioning Frostwire along with Limewire. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person who ever heard of Frostwire. As far as I remember, there wasn't a whole lot different from it and Limewire, just that it was supposedly "less dangerous".

I've already found out my birthday twin villager! It's Sterling and I'm proud to say that I have his Amiibo card!!

Fun fact: In Animal Crossing New Leaf if you get a wii u furniture item and play it and have the villager midge and possibly a different villager midge flies.

I love these videos so much! I find I enjoy them more when I slow them down a bit and can relax while taking in all the info. Too bad RU-vid only lets me slow it down in increments of 25%! I feel like if the audio was slowed down 5-10% it would be perfect!

I love ueselss facts!!! (:

Wait. Your birthday is on Christmas?! Your poor childhood….getting gipped on presents and celebration….

Bluebear is a girl. Just to point that out

this video is amazing 👏 the flashbacks i got when you mentioned the flipping my body is ready meme hshsha btw i share birthday with Daisy (or Vanilla)

"You can see pumpkins on the side of Jack's truck. This is likely a reference to the fact that his head is a pumpkin" 😂

Oh boy, do I just love *ueselss* facts!

You said style savvy as you showed Tomodachi Life on the 3DS shelf. 😅 besides that this video is pretty good!

your birthday is on christmas day? thats so cool!

I think that middle game in the 3DS display item is actually the Japanese box art for Tomodachi Life. And the style savvy game is the one on the far right.

My Animal Crossing birthday twin is Apple. I honestly think it fits because, like me, she is either seen as cute, creepy, or ugly.

18:57 the fact that the AC franchise has scored 424 out of 500 is so cool

Oh what Ankha was famous out of nowhere? I have noooo idea why that could be! We will neeeeever know...

My birthday twin is Bella! I didn’t like her at first, but now I think she’s pretty cool!

in 12:33 the game is Tomodachi life, but the japanese cover; and the last onr IS style savvy. you mixed them up 😂

Transmasc redd canon 😱

Drawing that cats face was the best thing ever.

I love your videos keep up the good work👍👍👍

I think thr thing with Pascal and Lottie is that Pascal is a sea otter and Lottie is a river otter. At least thats my headcanon why thry took different being thr same spieces

5:48 Blathers can fly, I remember donating an animal and he said “hopefully they don’t eat flying birds “ and then shivers, “flying bird” refers to him and “they” refers to the animal he was talking about

I do not share a birthday with a villager, but i do share a name with one

I HAD NO IDEA THAT GOLDEN TOOLS EXISTED this is so cool thank you for posting this video ! im so excited to get all the golden tools now ^^

Pascal is a sea otter, and Lottie is a river otter.

Man, the jack and bluebear facts were really something. I never would've guessed.

i love how halfway through the facts just are random observations that mean nothing

Isabell’s French name Marie is very similar to the word Mairie, which means town hall

I think the rough translation for Booker's Chinese localization is because in Chinese, it's kind of like a sign of endearment or respect to elders who are male to call them uncle. And so, at least from my experience with the language (which is admittedly limited), this is typically done by referring to them as 大爺, but in the case of Booker and Copper it's 叔叔, which also means uncle, but specifically an uncle who's younger than your own father, meanwhile 大爺 is the opposite, an uncle who's older than your own father. It is weird, though, that they didn't give Copper and Booker some unique names at the very least. I think it would have been neat if they did like a play on words kind of name, where their names are homophones of police. Or even just naming Copper as Jing (警) and Booker as Cha (察), which together form the pronunciation for 警察 (police).

for Isabelle, the french name "Marie" is probably a joke with the the word "Mairie" which means "city hall" basically so yeah Marie est à la mairie lmao

my bday twin is rooney and i had him on my first ever town… he was my favorite villager, so when i found out we shared a birthday it made me love him even more!

I share a birthday with Vivian! And I actually used to be really sad because before she was introduced I didn't share my birthday with any villager while the rest of my family did haha

For the gold tools in new horizions: if you're lazy and dont wanna do stuff,you can use a bot to get them But its more fun if you do stuff :>

wish you could hug the villagers.... (probably most of the players wish this too)

Finally, the best part of the day Elijah Rocket😊😊

Bro when u told me that blue bear was a reference to him being a blue bear, it just blew me away like I never would have guessed :O

Don does appear in the rescue line! Pretty sure he replaces resetti on the weekends, atleast I think so

I just figured Pascal's name was a pun on "pass scallop," because that's generally what you do when you see him.

I can confirm that the Don resetti theory is correct as I've had it multiple times

Reggie's "taking names" quote is not from the same conference as the "my body is ready" one, they're from different events years apart. The former is from his first public introduction as the new president of NoA.

OMG you share a birthday with me!! christmas buddies

I’ve had both Resettis drop by my cafe in NH, in fact maybe Don’s been there more than Sonny

There were so many interesting facts that when you got to one that was so obvious, I was like “duh” But then I remembered these are useless facts. Duh 🙄 LOL My birthday twin is Vivian

I did notice Blathers voice change when my niece let me play new horizons, when I said something about it my niece and sister looked at me funny (because they had never played the new leaf) so yeah…now I’m the crazy auntie. 😂

5:15 Pascal is not only a famous mathematician but also a very famous philosopher so it makes sense that his name and his life statements are actually more related to his philosophical work 😊

Isabella was born first while Digby was born seconds after. Making them twins

Pekoe is my birthday buddy and bc of this she is my always exception villager I have on my island/ttown no matter the theme. I love her.

the 3ds one i think tomodachi life and style savvy are switched

I share a birthday with the toga wearing bear Klaus. It is a coincidence because he has a German name, and I'm mostly German!

im pretty sure isabelle has a unique voice too, forgive me if i am mistaken

My birthday buddy is Becky the chicken. Also it's really cool that you have a Christmas birthday!

Rocket. Buddy. My brother. I love you, but... were you drunk making that thumbnail?

Brain: oooo useless stuff me: bruh I love the video

Watching this at the gym thanks for the entertainment

"The colour code for the pink on Freya's fur is actually #FF92A4 or like something like that." I mean, I guess that is useless information...
