A group, also known as a probability group,[1] is a value assigned to some items in the first-generation Animal Crossing games, Animal Crossing: Wild World, and Animal Crossing: New Leaf that determines their rarity in a specific town. In the first-generation games and Wild World, furniture, tops, wallpapers, carpets, and stationery from Tom Nook's store or the Able Sisters are assigned a group of A, B, or C, and in each town, one of the groups is common, one is uncommon, and one is rare. In New Leaf, furniture, wallpapers, carpets, and stationery from Timmy and Tommy's store are assigned a group of A, B, C, or D, and in each town, one of the groups is common, one is uncommon, one is rare, and one is very rare.

Which group is common, uncommon, rare, or very rare is assigned upon town creation, and it is different for each type of item. For example, Group A furniture may be common in a town, but Group A clothing may be rare in the same town.

Additionally, some sources only contain items of a specific rarity.
