The '''pearl oyster''' is a [[sea creature]] in the {{SER}} introduced in {{NL}}. In {{WW|short}}, {{CF|short}}, and {{NL|short|nolink}} the pearl oyster also appears as a [[shell]] on the beach.
+
''Pearl Oysters'' are a type of [[deep sea creature]] found in {{NL}}. In previous games, pearl oysters were found as [[shell]]s.
  
While initially being absent from {{NH|short}}, it was re-added in the 1.3.0 [[Animal Crossing: New Horizons/Update history|Free Summer Update]] in July 2020, where it appears all day long as a small, medium-movement shadow year-round. Unlike past games, it doesn't return as a shell, instead exclusively being a sea creature.

==Donating to the Museum==

===In ''New Leaf''===
 +
Upon donating the pearl oyster to the [[Museum]], it can be found in the large pool in the first room of the ocean exhibit, along with many other species of deep sea creatures. The exhibit has this to say about the pearl oyster:
  
__TOC__

''"Pearls are formed when mostly calcium carbonate and protein envelop foreign substances. Pearl oysters have numerous threadlike feet sticking out from their shell opening. These allow them to latch onto surrounding rocks and are actually surprisingly strong. Their adductor muscles are edible and are considered a delicious ingredient in some foods."''

==Donating to the museum==
 
===In {{NL|short|nolink}}===
 
Upon donating the pearl oyster to the [[museum]], it can be found in the large pool in the first room of the sea exhibit, along with many other species of sea creatures. The exhibit has this to say about the pearl oyster:
 
{{Blathers|NL|Pearls are formed when mostly calcium carbonate and protein envelop foreign substances. Pearl oysters have numerous threadlike feet sticking out from their shell opening. These allow them to latch onto surrounding rocks and are actually surprisingly strong. Their adductor muscles are edible and are considered a delicious ingredient in some foods.}}
 
 
 
===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
 
When donating to the museum, [[Blathers]] will say the following:
 
{{Blathers|NH|Did you know the famed '''pearl oyster''' can live for 40 years and grow up to a foot in size? 'Tis true, hootie-hoo! Of course, this briny bivalve is best known for the precious gems it growns within. The pearl-making process begins when an irritant gains access to the delicate insides of the oyster. The intruder is then covered with layer upon layer of "nacre," the same substance used to create its shell. It takes years for a pearl to form, but in the end, the irritant is rendered harmless. Ahhh, if only we all had the power to turn things that annoy us...into things of beauty instead.}}
 
 
 
Once donated, it is placed in the coral reef tank.
 
 
 
==Fishing Tourney==
 
===In {{NL|short|nolink}}===
 
During a [[Fishing Tourney]], when given a pearl oyster, [[Chip]] will not score the sea creature but will say the following:
 
{{Chip|NL|By the by, you can dry out the meat of a pearl oyster for quite a tasty meal. It's chewy! Not that I mind just eating them whole like this! YUM!}}
