Champ is a jock monkey villager in the Animal Crossing series. He appears in Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, making him the only villager introduced after Doubutsu no Mori e+ to not appear in Animal Crossing: New Leaf or subsequent games. He also makes a minor appearance in 🎬 Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori. His name may be a reference to his personality, or a pun on "chimp."

Characteristics[edit]

Champ in City Folk.

Appearance[edit]

Champ is a brown monkey very similar in appearance to Porter, a monkey that runs the train station in every first-generation Animal Crossing game and Animal Crossing: New Leaf. In Animal Crossing: Wild World (as well as the film), he lacks the point of fur on the top of his head.

Personality[edit]

Below is a brief description of the jock personality. For more information, click here.

As a jock villager, Champ is energetic and has an interest in physical fitness and activity. He often talks about exercise or sports and may brag about his physical fitness. While often friendly to the player, he may comment on their fitness. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with peppy villagers due to their similar hyper personalities, while he may offend snooty villagers by critiquing their fitness and annoy cranky villagers with his hyper personality. Champ usually goes to sleep at 12:00 AM and wakes up at 6:30 AM.

Villager information[edit]

In Wild World[edit]

Champ, like all monkey villagers in Animal Crossing: Wild World, can only move to the player's town after being distributed via a promotional Game Card.

Artwork of Champ from Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori

Trivia[edit]

  • Champ is nearly identical in appearance to Porter, the monkey who works at the train station in every first-generation Animal Crossing game and Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Champ's house interior, which resembles the train station, and catchphrase, "choo CHOO," are likely references to Porter.
  • Champ shares his birthday with Reneigh.
