'''Kapp'n''' is a green [[turtle]]{{Note|In Japanese releases, Kapp'n is instead a kappa.}} in the {{SER}} who serves as a driver of various forms of transport. He has been known to row boats, drive taxis, and also drive buses. Kapp'n himself is a sailor at heart, referring frequently to his life on the sea and speaking as a pirate would. He also expresses a fondness for women, cucumbers, and singing old [[Kapp'n's Song|sea shanties]].

The word "kappa," from which Kapp'n is derived, is the name for a river ''yokai'' (supernatural creature) in Japanese folklore. They are mischievous in nature and reptilian in appearance. His name also plays on how a sailor would pronounce "captain," abbreviating certain sounds so that it becomes a phonetic pronunciation. His name reflects the way he speaks; he talks like a stereotypical pirate, saying things like "yar!", "sprat," and "garr," and he will sometimes refer to the [[player]] as a [[fish]] or [[sea creatures|sea creature]], such as "[[scallop]]," "[[Sea Bass|sea bass]]," or "[[Sea Urchin|urchin]]."

==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
[[File:Kapp'n PG.png|thumb|right|80px|Artwork of Kapp'n from {{PG}}.]]
Kapp'n is a green turtle/kappa with a bald spot surrounded by green triangle hair strands, a big yellow muzzle, a white belly, a red inner mouth, and whitish-green hands and feet. Like his mother, [[Grams]], and daughter, [[Leila]], he has closed eyes with white round rims.

===Clothing===
Each game Kapp'n appears in has him wearing different clothes. In {{DnM+}} and {{PG}}, he wears a blue vest. His appearance in {{WW|short}}, {{Film}}, {{CF|short}}, and as an assist trophy in {{SSBU}} depicts him wearing a blue coat, gray pants, black shoes, and a blue and red {{wp|peaked cap}} covering his bald spot. In {{NL|short}}, {{NH|short}}, and {{PC|short}}, he wears a blue collar shirt with white hibiscus flower patterns with light-blue linings (known in {{PC|short}} as the Hibiscus Aloha Shirt) and gray shorts. He also has a pair of red sunglasses hanging from his shirt's pocket. In {{HHD|short}} and his [[RV]] appearance in {{NLWa|short}}, he wears a blue vest and brown shorts.

===Personality===
Kapp'n does his various transportation jobs seriously, and has a stereotypical pirate-like accent, a trait he shares with his family.

In the games where he is depicted as a sailor, Kapp'n will sing to the player "[[Kapp'n's Song]]", a series of melodies with a variety of lyrics pertaining to his life and family. If the player skips his song in {{NL|short|nolink}} and {{NH|short|nolink}}, he will express his disappointment at the player.

==Appearances==
===In {{PG|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n PG2.png|thumb|left|200px|Artwork of Kapp'n in his boat from {{PG|nolink}}.]]
In {{PG}}, he is the ferry operator who rows visitors and the player to the [[Animal Island|island]] through the Game Boy Advance cable. During the voyage to the island, he sings a sea shanty, usually about his life on the sea and women.

===In {{WW|short|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n WW.png|thumb|right|80px|Artwork of Kapp'n from {{WW|nolink}}.]]
In {{WW}}, he drives the black [[taxi]] to the [[town]] and acts as the introducing character responsible for the gender and appearance of the playable character, as well as the name of the town. This is a role he takes on from [[Rover]]. He can sometimes be seen in the [[The Roost]] drinking coffee. He will talk about his life at sea upon talking to him.

===In {{CF|short|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n CF.png|thumb|left|80px|Artwork of Kapp'n from {{CF|nolink}}.]]
In {{CF}}, he first appears driving the [[bus]] to the town, while [[Rover]] talks to the playable character determining the gender, birthday, and appearance of the character, as well as the name of the town. He will then appear again driving the bus to the [[city]] when going to the [[bus stop]]. During the journey to the city, he will talk about women, the city, and modern-day youngsters to male players. If the player is female, he will subtly flirt with them, calling them "cute," "pretty," and that a "manly bus-driver is available." If the player does not respond, he will begin to whistle his sea shanty.

He also appears in The Roost, as he did in {{WW|short|nolink}}, where he will talk about his life in more detail.

===In {{NL|short|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n NL2.png|thumb|right|150px|Artwork of Kapp'n in his boat from {{NL|nolink}}.]]
Kapp'n returns to his roots in {{NL}}, this time with a motorboat. He will sing and joke to the player on the way to Tortimer's Island and will flirt with female players. Approaching Kapp'n with friends will allow up to four players to travel to an [[Tortimer Island|island]] for local multiplayer gameplay. Once on the island, Kapp'n's wife [[Leilani]], mother [[Grams]], and daughter [[Leila]] also make an appearance, running a souvenir shop and providing tours of the island which take the form of minigames.

===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n's Poster NH Icon.png|thumb|left|Kapp'n's Poster in {{NH|nolink}}.]]
Kapp'n was added to {{NH}} in the {{NHVer|2.0|full}}. Once the player's island reaches a 3-star [[Environment rating|rating]] and [[K.K. Slider]] plays his first concert, Kapp'n appears in his boat at the island's [[pier]], and he will take the player on a [[boat tour]] to a random deserted island for 1,000 [[Nook Miles]]. In addition, {{I|Kapp'n's poster|New Horizons}} can be obtained from [[Nook Shopping]] after inviting him to [[Harv's Island|Photopia]] via his [[amiibo]].

===In {{aF|short|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n aF.png|thumb|right|80px|Artwork of Kapp'n from {{aF|nolink}}.]]
Kapp'n appears as a playable character in {{aF}}, entering the game if his amiibo character is scanned into the game.

===In {{PC|short|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n PC.png|thumb|left|80px|Artwork of Kapp'n from {{PC|nolink}}.]]
In {{PC}}, Kapp'n has hosted two [[garden event]]s. He first hosted the Bloomin' Booty with Kapp'n garden event, requesting players to capture ladybugs in exchange for sunflower-themed items. It ran from July 6, 2018 to July 16, 2018. He then hosted the Kapp'n's Summer Resort Vacation garden event, which ran from June 29, 2021 to July 10, 2021.

===In {{Film|nolink}}===
[[File:Kapp'n Film.jpg|thumb|right|100px|Artwork of Kapp'n from {{Film|nolink}}.]]
Kapp'n appears as a minor character in {{Film}}. Near the beginning of the film, he drives [[Ai]] to [[Animal Village]] in his black taxi, like the one in {{WW|nolink}}. He appears later on in the film during the Fireworks Festival, as a member of the audience listening to [[K.K. Slider]] singing.

==Trivia==
*In a character popularity poll held on the {{DnM+|nolink}} website, Kapp'n ranked as the 6th most popular character with 1,572 votes, ranking above [[Mitzi]] but below [[Sable]].<ref>{{Cite web|author=Nintendo|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201108174552/https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ngc/gafj/chara/kekka.html|title=キャラクター人気投票結果発表！|site=nintendo.co.jp|archive-date=November 8, 2020|retrieved=November 8, 2020}}</ref>
*One of Kapp'n's sea shanties in {{PG|nolink}} is about how he sings better than [[mariowiki:Mario|Mario]].
*Several of Kapp'n's sea shanties are about cucumbers. In Japanese folklore, cucumbers were thrown into rivers for Kappa to eat with the names of children and/or families on. This would spare a family when bathing in a river. Children, and sometimes adults, are believed to be one of their favorite foods–cucumbers being their favorite. They would also help humans and not break an oath. This may relate to how friendly he is towards humans in the {{SER|nolink}}.
*If in {{CF|nolink}} the player leaves the game idle long enough on the bus, Kapp'n will begin to whistle [[Totaka's Song]], which also appears as "[[K.K. Song]]."
*While riding on the bus in {{CF|nolink}}, Kapp'n is interested in celebrity gossip and will question the player for juicy secrets, shortly before arriving at the city.
*Kapp'n appears on the album cover of "[[Marine Song 2001]]."
