Editing Dr. Shrunk

{{Quote|Thank you! Thank you! Dr. Shrunk is in the house!|Shrunk|{{NL}}}}

Dr. Shrunk is a pink axolotl with six red gills, a red tuft of hair, two front teeth, and what appears to be a unibrow. Beginning in {{NL|short|nolink}}, he also has a mustache.

In {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}, Dr. Shrunk wears a yellow suit jacket with red circles and a blue dress shirt and bowtie, while beginning in {{NL|short|nolink}}, he wears a dark purple suit jacket with a white undershirt and red bowtie. While at home in {{HHD|short|nolink}}, he wears an orange and blue gingham blazer with white sleeves over a black undershirt.

In {{CF|short|nolink}}, Dr. Shrunk reveals that he has a wife and a son in one of his performances. He says that his wife is apathetic toward him and does not enjoy his jokes; this is further evidenced in {{HHD|short}}, where he tells the player "There's a reason she's never around [the house] to meet you." It is implied that she may not have always acted this way towards him, as he mentions her calling him her "funny bunny" and repeats a joke that she told him at one point, also in {{HHD|short|nolink}}. In one of his jokes in {{NL|short|nolink}}, Shrunk reveals that he also has a young daughter.

Shrunk learned his comedy from [[Frillard]], and it is implied that Shrunk admires Frillard and views him as a master of the craft. In {{NL|short|nolink}}, before Shrunk performs a joke that is by Frillard in {{CF|short|nolink}}, he becomes nervous that he will not perform it as well as his teacher.

In {{NL}}, Dr. Shrunk appears outside the player's house after [[T&T Mart]] is built, and he asks for six signatures to approve the construction of [[Club LOL]] on [[Main Street]]. Once the club is built, Dr. Shrunk appears in it from 12 PM to 8 PM. He states that he is a retired comedian, but if the player brings him a food item such as fruit, he gets on stage and performs a joke, teaching the player the corresponding emotion. Once the player learns all but one emotion, Shrunk teaches them the "Shrunk Funk Shuffle," which is the dance he does after each performance; he also gives the player a {{I|Dr. Shrunk's jacket|NL|replica of his jacket}}. Shrunk also appears in Club LOL as a host when [[K.K. Slider]] or DJ KK are performing.

Dr. Shrunk can appear at the bar at [[The Roost]] from 8 AM to 9:30 AM all week, and when he visits during the player's part-time job, his coffee preferences are Mocha beans, a little milk, and two teaspoons of sugar.

Dr. Shrunk was added to {{NH}} in the {{NHVer|2.0|full}}. He can appear at [[The Roost]], and {{I|Shrunk's poster|NH}} can be obtained from [[Nook Shopping]] after inviting him to Photopia via his amiibo.

Along with his poster, there are some references to Shrunk in the game, such as the "Comedian's signature" customization of the {{I|autograph cards|NH}} item containing a drawing of him, as well as dialogue from [[normal]] villagers mentioning his book, ''Dr. Shrunk Explains it All'', as a subject for a book club they intend to go to. Additionally, a sticker of Shrunk can be seen on the back of [[K.K. Slider]]'s guitar, along with a sticker of [[Brewster]].

 

===In {{aF|short|nolink}}===

Dr. Shrunk appears as a visitor in the [[Board Game]] mode of {{aF}}. If a player lands on a special-event space while he is visiting, he chooses a joke at random out of four—three dice and one "special schtick"—and tells it to the player. If he chooses a joke about the die number, he gives the player a move card with a matching die value. If he chooses to do his "special schtick," he gives the player a random non-move card.

|description='''NTSC-U''': Dr. Shrunk definitely has a...unique look about him. As the owner of Club LOL, a new entertainment venue, he isn't shy about taking the stage. It's too bad his jokes don't always fly. If you want a taste of his humor, take him some treats before the show starts!<br><br> '''PAL''': Dr. Shrunk used to be a comedian, and he looks the part. He doesn't do just any old jokes, though – he does Reaction Jokes, which are, erm...even funnier! Visit Club LOL before it opens and give him a yummy present to get a dose of comedy, Shrunk style.
