Filbert is a lazysquirrelvillager in the Animal Crossing series who appears in all games to date. He is the only lazy squirrel in the series. His name may come from the filbert nut, another name for the hazelnut, which relates to his species, as squirrels are often associated with nuts.
In New Horizons, Filbert has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item he is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.
Filbert is a blue squirrel with a white stripe on his forehead and a white swirl on his tail. He has bright pink cheeks and the inside of his ears are orange. Filbert, Peanut, and Ricky are the only squirrels to have a stripe that ends at a triangular point on their forehead.
Below is a brief description of the lazy personality. For more information, click here.
As a lazy villager, Filbert 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, Filbert goes to sleep at 11 PM and wakes up at 8 AM.
Ideal clothing for Filbert – Blue / White Simple and Cute clothing
Villagers prefer clothing that matches any one of their favorite colors or styles. For brevity, the following list only shows clothing that matches both favorite colors and one favorite style.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, if Filbert 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.
Nothing makes Filbert happier than seeing the smiling face of a happy child. The problem is, kids have a tendency to poke fun at his rosy cheeks, so Filbert is constantly torn between grief and joy.
