If the player's town has too many weeds and/or trash, enough to generate the "worst" rating, a rafflesia may appear. Players are unable to remove it by picking it or digging it up.

The environmental report in the civic center will read this: "This place is the pits! Everything that can go wrong has gone wrong!

One small plus of the rafflesia is that flies are usually nearby and easy for catching. This mimics the real life behavior of it which emits the odor of rotting flesh to attract flies in order to pollinate.

In Animal Crossing: City Folk, the rafflesia can be seen in the insect section of the museum, regardless of the town's environmental rating. Once the player catches a fly and donates it to Blathers, it will be seen flying around the plant.

A player character discovering a rafflesia in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

The player cannot remove a rafflesia by hitting it with a shovel or trying to pick it up. It usually appears where there are the least weeds, so it has room to grow and flies can appear. To remove a rafflesia, the player must pull all the weeds in one acre. Once the player has picked enough weeds, the rafflesia will start to wilt and die within a few days, and then it will disappear.

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, with no acre system to determine the town rating, the rafflesia is harder to remove. Building public works projects appears to be a more effective method of removing the plant.
