Lopez is a smug deer villager in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Animal Crossing: New Leaf and has appeared in all subsequent games. His name comes from "antelopes," animals that bear a resemblance to deer. His original American catchphrase is a play on "buck," meaning a male antelope or deer. His Japanese catchphrase is a play on "gazelle."

In New Horizons, Lopez has the education hobby and can be seen wearing rimmed glasses, reading a novel while outside, and using a magnifying glass when near certain objects.

Characteristics[edit]

Appearance[edit]

Artwork of Lopez from Welcome amiibo.

Lopez is a yellow-orange and white deer with gray horns and black hooves. Although Lopez's species is a deer, his design is based on an antelope, most closely resembling the Thomson's gazelle.

Personality[edit]

Below is a brief description of the smug personality. For more information, click here.

Lopez is a smug villager, meaning he will come off as a gentleman and polite. Smug villagers seem to be a mix between some personalities, and are kind, lively but can come off as conceited. If the player is female, they will occasionally flirt. Smug villagers cannot be a starter villager, and can only move in after the player becomes mayor. They wake up at 8:30 AM.

Villager information[edit]

In New Leaf[edit]

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Lopez cannot be one of the starting villagers in the player's town.
