Simon

Simon is a lazy monkey villager in the. He first appeared in and has appeared in all subsequent games except. His name may come from simian, an order of primates.

In, Simon has the play hobby and will be more frequently seen running around the island, sometimes with other villagers. He may also set up treasure hunts (a timed minigame) with the player.

Appearance
Simon is a brown monkey with a white muzzle and red around his eyes. He has a long brown tail that swirls at the end, becoming a darker, chocolate brown color that matches his fore-arms and his feet. His ears are big, sticking out at the sides of his head, and they are blue on the inside. His nose is also blue, as are his eyelids. There is a point at the very top of his head that may be hair, as his fur is slightly darker at that point. He somewhat resembles the blue and red-eared monkey species.

Personality
Simon has a lazy personality, which means he will enjoy eating and sleeping. Cranky villagers will admire his laid-back attitude, yet jock villagers will argue with him due to his lack of exercise. Simon will get along with other lazy villagers due to the same interest. His dream is to be a movie director.

In
Simon, like all monkey villagers in, can only move to the player's town after being distributed via a promotional Game Card.
