'''Pitfall seeds''' (known as '''pitfalls''' in {{PG}}) are items in the {{SER}}. A pitfall seed has the appearance of a white sphere with a large red exclamation point in the center on both sides.

'''Pitfall seeds''', often shortened to just '''pitfalls''', are items in the {{SER}}. In the player's inventory, a pitfall seed has the appearance of a white sphere with a large red exclamation point in the center on both sides. A [[player]] can bury it, at which point it will look like any other buried item. When a [[villager]] or player walks over a buried pitfall seed, they will fall into it. However, special characters such as [[Tortimer]] and [[Joan]] are "immune" to pitfalls. Any player who falls into a pitfall can get out by rapidly tapping any button. Pitfalls are uncommon in {{DnM}}, {{DnM+}}, {{PG}} and {{DnMe+}} and can only be found whenever a villager buries it somewhere and puts up a notice on the bulletin board on which [[Acre]] to where to find it in. Sometimes, however, villagers may put a notice on the bulletin board and bury a furniture item instead of a pitfall. In {{WW|short}}, {{CF|short}}, and {{NL}}, they are found every day and one pitfall seed spawns per day alongside some [[fossil]]s if any previous pitfall seed has been stepped on by the player or a villager, or has been dug up.
  
The primary use of a pitfall seed is for the [[player]] to bury it, at which point it will look like any other buried item. When a [[villager]] or player walks over a buried pitfall seed, they will fall into it. If the player speaks to a trapped villager, they will rattle about their situation and jump out. Depending on the game or [[personality]], they will be angry or sad after escaping. However, [[special character]]s such as [[Tortimer]] and [[Joan]] are "immune" to pitfalls, and in {{NH|short}}, the player will not receive a [[friendship]] penalty from a villager who falls into a pitfall. Any player who falls into a pitfall can get out by rapidly tapping any button. A second use for pitfall seeds are to place them in letters written to neighbors, and in return, they will send the player a present.
+
If the player buries a pitfall seed and a villager falls or gets pushed in, they will appear shocked. If the player speaks to them while they are trapped, they will probably shout and jump out. In {{CF}}, {{NL}}, and {{NH}}, they will be angry or sad after escaping, depending on their [[personality]]. A second use for pitfall seeds are to place them in letters written to neighbors, and in return, they will send the player a present.
  
==Appearances==
+
There are several ways in which the player can obtain pitfall seeds. They can be found already buried in a town with one or two added every day, along with [[fossil]]s. In ''Animal Crossing'', pitfall seeds can be found in the [[Dump]], or at the lost and found at the [[Police Station]]. In ''Wild World'' and ''City Folk'', pitfall seeds can be collected from the lost and found run by [[Booker]] at the [[Town Gate]], or found in the recycling bin in the [[Town Hall]].
===In {{PG|nolink}}===
 
{{Main|Item:Pitfall (Animal Crossing)}}
 
Pitfalls are uncommon in {{DnM}}, {{DnM+}}, {{PG}}, and {{DnMe+}} and can only be found whenever a villager buries it somewhere and puts up a notice on the bulletin board on which [[acre]] to where to find it in. Sometimes, however, villagers may put a notice on the bulletin board and bury a furniture item instead of a pitfall. Pitfalls can also be found in the [[dump]], or at the [[lost and found|Lost & Found]] at the [[police station]]. If the player tries to sell a pitfall to [[Tom Nook]], he will treat it as he does [[trash]] and will not buy it; instead, he offers to throw it away.
 
  
===In {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}===
+
If the player tries to sell a pitfall seed to Tom Nook, he will treat it as he does [[trash]] and will not buy it; instead, he offers to throw it away. In {{NL}} however, it can be sold to [[Re-Tail]] for a mere 10 Bells. It can also be sold to [[Timmy and Tommy's store]] for 8 Bells.
[[File:WW Pitfall Seed.png|frame|A player discovering a pitfall seed in {{WW}}.]]
 
In {{WW|short}} and {{CF|short}}, pitfall seeds are found every day. One spawns per day alongside some [[fossil]]s if any previous pitfall seed has been stepped on by the player or a villager, or has been dug up. Pitfall seeds can also be collected from the lost and found run by [[Booker]] at the [[checkpoint]], or found in the recycling bin in the [[town hall]]. As with his appearance in {{PG|nolink}}, Tom Nook will offer to throw out pitfall seeds if the player tries to sell them.

===In {{NL|short|nolink}}===
+
In {{NL}}, if the player steps on a pitfall seed and falls into the hole, any nearby characters (including special characters and villagers) will be shocked and do the Shock emote and then the Distress emote until the player is free from it. Pitfall seeds will not spawn in the player's town if at least one seed is already buried. This means that the player can dig up a pitfall seed and replant it in a far corner of the town, and not have to worry about new pitfalls spawning anywhere else.
[[File:NL Pitfall Compare.jpg|thumb|The difference between the normal and tricky pitfall seed.]]
 
In {{NL|short}}, in addition to the returning pitfall seed mechanics from {{WW|short|nolink}} and {{CF|short|nolink}}, a new type of pitfall seed, the '''tricky pitfall seed''', appears in the game. They can only be found at the police station and are very rare. They take the appearance of normal pitfall seeds except the sphere is dark purple and the exclamation point is yellow, similar to fossil's color scheme. They also work the same way as pitfall seeds, except the 'star mark' left behind is smaller, making them more difficult to see.
 
  
For the first time, pitfall seeds can now be sold for [[Bell]]s, with [[Re-Tail]] selling for a mere {{Currency|Bells|10}} and [[Timmy and Tommy's store]] for {{Currency|Bells|8}}. In addition, if the player steps on a pitfall seed and falls into the hole, any nearby characters (including special characters and villagers) will express their shock and fear towards the player.
+
In {{NH}}, Pitfall Seeds can no longer be found buried in ground, however it has its own DIY recipe that can be obtained by message in a bottle, [[jock]] villagers who are using their workbench, balloons or when the player digs up a pitfall seed buried by another player and automatically learns it. They function normally as from previous games.

In {{NH}}, pitfall seeds can no longer be found buried in ground, however it has its own DIY recipe that can be obtained from Nook's Cranny for {{Currency|Bells|900}} or when the player digs up a pitfall seed buried by another player and automatically learns it. Until version {{NHVer|2.0}}, the pitfall seed could be obtained from [[jock]] villagers. They function normally as from previous games. Using a {{I|vaulting pole|NH}} or getting up from a chair into a hole also functions the same as falling into a pitfall.
+
Tricky pitfall seeds are items that appear first in {{NL}}. They can only be found at the Police Station and are very rare. They take the appearance of normal pitfall seeds except the sphere is dark purple and the exclamation point is yellow, similar to fossil's color scheme. They work the same way as pitfall seeds, except the 'star mark' left behind is smaller, making them more difficult to see.

Pitfalls make an appearance in {{Film}}, where [[Yū]] and [[Alfonso]] is shown digging holes to prank some villagers. [[Ai]] ends up being stuck in one of their pitfalls, but leaves ungrudgingly, as unbeknownst to them Ai's friend [[Margie]]'s sudden leave from [[Animal Village]] left Ai in a depressed state.

When thrown, they are buried for a short time. If the opponent is in the air and the pitfall seed hits, they are "meteor smashed" (shot directly downward). Or, if thrown and it lands on the ground, it appears to vanish in a series of sparks. When an opponent walks over the place were the pitfall is thrown, they will be buried. Fighters can escape quicker by quickly waggling the control stick back and forth.

Pitfalls make an appearance in the [[Super Smash Bros.|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], appearing in {{SSBB}}, {{SSB4|3dswiiu}}, and {{SSBU}}. When thrown, they are buried for a short time, but fighters can quickly escape by quickly waggling the control stick back and forth. If the opponent is in the air and the pitfall hits, they are "[[smashwiki:Meteor smash|meteor smashed]]", or shot directly downward. Or, if thrown and it lands on the ground, it appears to vanish in a series of sparks. When an opponent walks over the place where the pitfall is thrown, they will be buried.

|description=A tricky little item you can bury. Any player who passes over it will drop into a hole. If you land in a pitfall, move the Control Stick quickly back and forth to escape, because until you do, you're completely defenseless. In Animal Crossing, this item also dropped passersby into holes. It was a thrill to bury one and wait for a visiting pal to stumble across it.
