Prior to {{NH|short|nolink}}, the Bug-Off is hosted by [[Nat]], except in {{WW}}, where it is hosted by the mayor, [[Tortimer]]. In {{NH|short|nolink}}, the event is now hosted by [[Flick]], who also appears as a regular visitor. The event runs from 12 PM to 6 PM in {{WW|short|nolink}}, and 9 AM to 6 PM in {{CF|short}}, {{NL|short}}, and {{NH|short|nolink}}.

During the day of the competition, each time a [[player]] gives a bug that achieves a new high score, they receive a gift from [[Nat]] ([[Tortimer]] in {{WW|short|nolink}}). In {{NL}}, players will receive an item from the [[Insect Set]] if they hand over a record-breaking bug worth at least 80 points. At the end of the competition, the winner of the Bug-Off receives a mention on the [[bulletin board]] as well as a bronze, silver, or gold trophy through the mail for reaching third, second, and first place respectively. There are no trophies for second place in {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}.

In {{NL|nolink}}, there is an awards ceremony where trophies are presented to the top three participants. It occurs in Nat's tent between 6 PM and 9 PM, and trophies will be mailed instead if the player does not show up between those times.

The Bug-Off is the bug counterpart to the [[Fishing Tourney]], which runs during the other eight months of the year. The Bug-Off is different to the Fishing Tourney, since there is only one type of competition - bugs are caught according the color, rarity, luster and size only, unlike the Tourney which has two competitions: size and type.

===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===

In {{NH}}, the Bug-Off is hosted by [[Flick]] instead of Nat. Players are tasked with catching as many bugs as possible within three minutes. The player can participate as many times as they choose until the event ends at 6:00 PM; however, every entry after the first costs {{Currency|Bells|500}}. While the timer is active, a generic message is displayed whenever a bug is caught as opposed to the player's normal [[catch quote]], and the "Yes!" message that normally displays for a first-time catch will not be displayed either. Any [[Net]]s used will not break during the tourney, but they still sustain damage, and will break after the timer is up if their durability runs out during a round.

During the Bug-Off, villagers are seen trying to catch bugs with Nets (although they cannot actually catch them), and they will only talk about the event, meaning no items can be received or given, and no [[favor]]s or [[Reaction]]s can be received. Villagers who are in their [[Villager house|houses]] will converse as usual, except in some cases they may remind the player about the Bug-Off when talked to, and then mention why they're not participating themselves.

====Scoring====

====Multiplayer====

====Rewards====

After obtaining 10 or more points, players can exchange their points for a "bug relic." The 13 possible items are distributed in a random order, after which the player will start receiving duplicate items. In addition, if the player obtains 100, 200, or 300 points over the course of the day, Flick will mail them a corresponding trophy (bronze, silver, or gold). This total is cumulative; points that have been traded in for relics still contribute to the total.
