Franklin the turkey appears during the Harvest Festival between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. on the fourth Thursday in November. He's a special character in all of the Animal Crossing series games except Doubutsu no Mori, Doubutsu no Mori+, and Animal Crossing: Wild World. He also makes an appearance in Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival.
Interestingly enough, Franklin was not available in Doubutsu no Mori nor Doubutsu no Mori+, instead debuting in Animal Crossing, making him and Farley the only characters in the series to be given this treatment.
History
Animal Crossing
Franklin makes his debut in Animal Crossing. He was added by the North American localization team instead of Nintendo EAD, who developed the original Japanese game. Tortimer, the mayor, invites him for dinner, or rather, to be dinner. During this time, Franklin hides behind obstacles such as trees, buildings and signs, and waits for the player to bring him pieces of silverware from the banquet. Franklin believes that if the player pilfers the utensils, the villagers will be unable to serve him. For each piece brought to him, the player receives one piece of the Harvest Series.
If the player talks to the villagers during the Harvest Festival, they talk about where they've seen Franklin. The player can also get a map coordinate clue each time they speak to a villager. While in one hiding place, Franklin will accept only one 'knife and fork' set, so if players wish to give him another, they must move from the hiding place until Franklin disappears and search for him again. However, there is a glitch that allows the player to visit Franklin in the same hiding place multiple times. After talking to Franklin, the player must enter any building within the acre Franklin is found in, including houses, the Museum, or Tom Nook's store. When the player returns, Franklin will remain in the same spot. In Doubutsu no Mori e+, however, this glitch is removed.
Animal Crossing: City Folk
Franklin returns in Animal Crossing: City Folk after being absent in Animal Crossing: Wild World, and his function from Animal Crossing is left unchanged in this game. The only differences being the dialogue, and that Franklin's voice is now much deeper in a similar manner to cranky villagers. Besides this, no significant changes are made.
Animal Crossing: New Leaf
In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Franklin acts as a chef, rather than the 'main course' of the Harvest Festival. He asks the player to find ingredients that allow him to cook dishes, and hands out unique rewards upon doing so. Some of these ingredients must be obtained from villagers by completing tasks, while others, such as fish, have to be caught. There is also one secret ingredient for each dish that is required in order to receive all the unique items, and the villagers may tell the player what this is. Unlike previous games, Franklin does not hand out furniture from the Harvest Series, although he hands out the fruit basket and the cornucopia; the fruit basket can be obtained when getting the first secret ingredient right, while the cornucopia is obtained after the player makes all of the dishes.
