Digby

From Nookipedia, the Animal Crossing wiki
"I'm still pretty new at my job, so learning all the ins and outs has proved to be a challenge... But if a new home is on display or visitors come to peruse, I feel like all my hard work has been worth it!"

Digby is a dog who works at the Happy Home Showcase in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Speaking with him allows the player to access the model home area, where the houses of people the player has StreetPassed with are displayed. He is the younger twin brother of Isabelle. His name, which a standard given name, may also derive from the associated behavior of dogs digging holes.

Characteristics[edit]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Digby from New Leaf.

Digby is a brown Shih Tzu dog with small eyes, which have black irises and white pupils, brown hair with one or two small tufts sticking out on top of his head, dark-brown ears, eyebrows and nose, pink freckles on his cheeks, gray lips, and some brownish-white on the center of his face and muzzle at the end of his tail.

Clothing[edit]

When working, Digby wears a white shirt, a yellow tie, a red jacket with a pocket and white/silver buttons, dark-blue pants, and dark-brown shoes. On rainy and snowy days, he wears a yellow hoodie/raincoat, which has two pockets (each one on each lower side), and mostly leaves it opened. His hoodie/raincoat also appears in Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival as his Lv. 2 outfit for the Board Game.

Personality[edit]

Like his sister, Isabelle, Digby is hard-working. He is loyal to his company and loves to do his job well. Even though he is still new, he tries his best. Digby is very caring, and loves his older twin sister, Isabelle.

Appearances[edit]

In New Leaf[edit]

Digby, alongside his twin sister, first appears in Animal Crossing: New Leaf as the owner of the Happy Home Showcase. If the player speaks with him, Digby will allow the player to browse the model homes of players that have been encountered via StreetPass.

In New Horizons[edit]

While initially absent from Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Digby makes his return in the 2.0 update, where he can be invited to The Roost or Harv's Island via his amiibo, the latter of which will also allow the player to obtain Digby's poster from Nook Shopping.

Digby is also mentioned (albeit not by name) by Isabelle during the daily island broadcast, where she may say, "My brother asked me to give him a wake-up call this morning and it totally slipped my mind!"

In Happy Home Designer[edit]

Digby reappears in Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, now as an employee of Nook's Homes, alongside Lyle, Lottie, and the player. Digby in this game functions as a means to edit any public works projects created with Isabelle. The player can also edit Digby's own home if his amiibo is scanned in the amiibo phone.

In Pocket Camp[edit]

In Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Digby is the host of the gardening event Digby's Artful Retreat. He can also appear in the player's campsite if the player crafts the Digby's Hammock item. Digby is also one of the judges at the Happy Homeroom.

Other appearances[edit]

Digby appears as a trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.

Description NTSC-U: Isabelle's twin brother, Digby, works at the Happy Home Showcase, but if he needs a quick break, he'll head down to the Roost for a cup of coffee. He takes Blue Mountain, black, no sugar, whereas his sister likes her coffee with a lot of milk and three sugars. For some reason, an order that doesn't include "a lot of milk" sounds more mature.

PAL: Isabelle's twin brother Digby works at the Happy Home Showcase, but if he needs a quick break, he'll head down to the Roost for a cup of coffee. He takes Blue Mountain, black, no sugar, whereas his sister likes her coffee with a lot of milk and three sugars. Funny how something as simple as a coffee order can make you sound more mature...
