List of special character IDs

The original games have a ??? because they have not yet been datamined. Also note many characters who aren't really in are still in the code and/or have posters.

Designations in are the same in  and, so for simplicity one column is used.

Because some characters have multiple codes depending on their outfit, the table uses their "default" or "normal" version. Further versions are documented below it.

Characters with multiple models
Some characters have multiple models in the same game, so the last letter (usually) is changed. In and  there is also another model using the same three letter code as the normal one suffixed with _h, for when the character is at home/their RV. The exceptions are is Timmy/Tommy and Resetti, see below. In, all characters use the same model and clothes are applied separately, so their default name is the only one ever used.
