Clyde is a lazy horse villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Animal Crossing: City Folk and has appeared in all subsequent games. His name may be derived from Clydesdale, a horse breed. His catchphrase comes from the noise horses make with their hooves when walking on a hard surface, clip-clop.
In New Horizons, Clyde has the play hobby and can run around with his arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.
Characteristics[edit]
Appearance[edit]

Clyde is a neon yellow horse with a dark brown crest and tail. He also has dark brown hair, which curls to one side. The inside of his ears match the pink color of the polka dots on his shirt. His coloration is similar to Al, a lazy gorilla who also made his first appearance in City Folk. His eyes look like buttons.
Personality[edit]
Below is a brief description of the lazy personality. For more information, click here.
As a lazy villager, Clyde has a relaxed, laid-back lifestyle and will appear friendly toward the player. He often talks about food and is humorous or naïve during conversations. During conversations with other villagers, he generally gets along well with peppy, smug, and cranky villagers, while snooty and jock villagers may not get along with him due to their conflicting lifestyles. In New Horizons, Clyde goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.

In New Horizons[edit]
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if Clyde is one of the villagers who moved in during the main storyline after the villager house development quest, his house will have a combination of non-craftable furniture, plus items crafted by players during the island development storyline, primarily from the Log Series and applicable native fruit sets. He cannot have his initial house interior unless he moves out of the player's island or the Happy Home Paradise DLC is purchased, in which either the player or Isabelle can reset the interior.
