Editing Hobby

In the {{SER}}, '''hobbies''' are pastimes that the [[villager]]s in the [[player]]'s [[town]] may take up to occupy their time. Hobbies include various activities the player may partake in, such as walking around, collecting fossils, or gardening, as well as activities the player cannot do in-game, like reading and singing.

In {{WW}} and {{CF}}, a villager may change their hobby several times, while in {{NH}}, a villager always has one hobby that doesn't change.

===In {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}===

In {{WW}} and {{CF}}, eight hobbies can be observed. Hobbies are the same between {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}, with small variations in activities between installments. Sometimes, villagers will play games based on their hobby—for example, [[lazy]] villagers may ask players to guess what their current hobby is. Hobbies affect villagers in many ways—their conversations vary, the content of their homes change, and what tool they carry may differ as well. Over time, a villager's hobby will change. Villagers may have up to two hobbies at a time; however, once they move in, the second hobby is always walking.

====Catch bugs====

Villagers with the "catch bugs" hobby will carry a [[net]] while they are outside. They will collect [[bug]]s for display in their homes. In {{WW|short|nolink}}, residents have competitions with the player to find a certain insect as fast as they can, or to catch the rarest bug. In {{CF|short|nolink}}, villagers simply ask for a specific insect, often in exchange for a reward.

====Collect furniture====

Villagers with the "collect furniture" hobby will often ask the player for a piece of furniture of a specific color, style (old-school, chic, etc.), or set to display in their home. Because of how specific the requests are, they may reject the player's offerings—this is especially so with colors, as the whole item must be that color, not just a part of it. However, even if the furniture is rejected by the villager, they may not give it back to the player, opting to keep it without displaying it.

====Garden====

Villagers with the "garden" hobby will carry a [[watering can]] while they are outside. They enjoy planting [[flower]]s, and flowers will appear around their house each day; eventually, up to two rows of flowers will appear in front of their house, excluding the single space in front of their door, and up to one row of flowers will appear on either side of their house. Villagers with this hobby often comment on how other villagers have been running through their gardens. If talked to, they may ask the player to deliver a [[letter]] or [[present]] for them.

====Shop for clothes====

Villagers with the "shop for clothes" hobby will ask for new [[clothing|clothes]], sometimes specific styles, in exchange for gifts. Clothing may be rejected if the villager deems it too unattractive. Lazy villagers might say that they are becoming a super hero, named "Super Spiffy [Villager Name]," and that they may ask players for style tips later on, since they will be their sidekick. They also say that they will stop wearing only the clothes their mom sends them. When players give a villager new clothes, the clothes they are wearing are displayed in their house.

====Walk around====

The "walk around" hobby is the automatic second hobby of all villagers. Villagers with this hobby will talk of their favorite routes, what they notice on their walk, and how refreshing they find it. They sometimes ask players if they want to walk with them, or to complete a delivery.

[[Normal]] villagers may mention flowers blooming on their route that weren't there yesterday. [[Cranky]] villagers will usually say, "You may think I'm a tired old man for saying this, but I like walking slow. Everyone these days have caught up with speed walking, but who needs speed? Wander around on a day like this and see what you discover." [[Peppy]] villagers will usually comment on how they're walking off a big meal or dessert, or how they intend to stay fit by walking around the town. In {{CF|short}}, specifically, they may comment: "''Since I'm becoming a healthier person now, I want to walk all the way to the city instead of taking the bus, but I don't think ANYONE could do that, not even, like, a marathon runner!"''

|caption2= [[Beardo]] reading a novel while wearing {{I|rimmed glasses|NH}}. Education-hobby villagers are able to read their novel while either indoors or outdoors.

Villagers with the education hobby can wear {{I|rimmed glasses|NH}} and read a novel while outside. They will also use a magnifying glass when near certain [[furniture]] items, such as [[art]], [[fossil]]s, [[flower]]s placed outside as furniture, [[bugs|insects]] placed outside as furniture, and [[fish]] placed outside as furniture; and near certain plants, such as [[flower]]s, [[tree]]s, [[weed]]s, and [[produce]]. They also use the magnifying glass with insects that are flying around. This hobby is most common among [[normal]] and [[cranky]] villagers. Additionally, [[Cobb]] is the only [[jock]] villager, [[Shino]] is the only [[peppy]] villager, [[Doc]] is the only [[lazy]] villager, and [[Quinn]] is the only [[big sister]] villager with this hobby.

Villagers with the fashion hobby can wear specific [[headwear]] or [[accessory]] items while carrying a special type of bag; for female villagers, they carry a pink purse with a white flower on it, and for male villagers, they carry a brown leather bag. Most of the villagers with fashion as their hobby are female, and nearly all of them are either [[peppy]] or [[snooty]]. [[Eunice]], [[Ione]], [[Jambette]], and [[Vesta]] are the only [[normal]] villagers with this hobby; [[Sasha]], who is [[lazy]], is the only male villager with this hobby. No [[big sister]] villagers have fashion as their hobby.

Villagers with the fitness hobby will wear {{I|sporty shades|NH}} and lift heavy {{I|dumbbell|NH}}s while exercising. Other villagers can only lift heavier dumbbells when exercising at the [[Resident Services]] [[plaza]] during a scripted activity with a group of villagers; at any other time, they lift lighter dumbbells. Most [[jock]]s have this hobby. All of the [[gorilla]] villagers have this hobby, except for [[Rilla]], who was added in the [[Animal Crossing: New Horizons/Update history/1.9.0|version 1.9.0]] update with the nature hobby. All of the superhero villagers have this as their hobby except for [[Big Top]], who has the play hobby instead. No [[normal]] villagers have this as their hobby.

====Nature====

Villagers with the nature hobby can read specific books that pertain to the item they are looking at. Unlike the education hobby, they don’t use novels, magnifying glass and rimmed glasses. They use a gardening guidebook when examining flowers or weeds, a bug guidebook when examining trees or bugs placed outside as furniture, a fish guidebook when examining fish placed outside as furniture, and a fossil guidebook when examining fossils placed outside as furniture. They can walk around holding a [[watering can]] in order to water multiple flowers; other villagers can only water one flower at a time. Many [[normal]] and [[lazy]] villagers have this hobby. Prior to [[Ace]]'s inclusion in version 2.0, no [[jock]] villagers had this hobby. No [[big sister]] villagers have this as their hobby.

====Play====

Villagers with the play hobby can run around with their arms extended at any time, rather than only at the Resident Services plaza during a scripted activity with a group of villagers. Many [[lazy]] villagers have this hobby, while no [[snooty]] villagers do. [[Octavian]] and [[Vladimir]] are the only [[cranky]] villagers with the play hobby. Prior to [[Chelsea]]'s inclusion in version 1.9.0, no [[normal]] villagers had this hobby, and prior to [[Cephalobot]]'s inclusion in version 2.0, no [[smug]] villagers had this hobby.
