Plucky is a chicken in the Animal Crossing series. She first appeared in Doubutsu no Mori+ as a peppy islander, and after her appearance in Doubutsu no Mori e+, she remained absent from the series until Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo, where she returns as a big sister villager. She is the only big sister chicken in the series. Her name may come from pluck, referring to the plucking of feathers when preparing a bird for food.
In New Horizons, Plucky has the play hobby and can run around with her arms extended at any time, rather than only outside Resident Services during a scripted activity with a group of villagers.
Characteristics[edit]
Appearance[edit]

Plucky is a brown chicken with a pale maroon beak. She has a sky-blue comb and wears the head of an anthurium plant on her head, which has been removed in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. She also has white eyelashes and her feet are orange striped with black.
Personality[edit]
Throughout the series, Plucky has had two different personalities. She debuted as a peppy islander in Animal Crossing, and later became a big sister villager in Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo.
Animal Crossing[edit]
Below is a brief description of the peppy personality. For more information, click here.
From her debut in Animal Crossing, until Doubutsu no Mori e+, Plucky is a peppy islander. As a peppy islander, Plucky has a haughty, forceful nature prone to telling the player how to behave. In conversation, she will often digress into stories about when she was a little girl and will boast about her past athletic prowess. Her bossy personality will often result in coaching the player in how they should hold themselves, play sports, and even how they should burp. Plucky speaks using laid-back, rustic slang and will ask the player for items that remind her of when she was a little girl. This makes her similar to the big sister villagers introduced in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, something she would inherit in her next appearance.
Welcome amiibo onwards[edit]
Below is a brief description of the big sister personality. For more information, click here.
Plucky reappears in Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo with a big sister personality. She acts similar to a snooty villager, but she is more caring toward the player. She sometimes disagrees with cranky and snooty villagers because they spread rumors and may seem offensive. However, she will usually get along with lazy, jock, peppy and other big sister villagers.
Villager information[edit]
In Animal Crossing[edit]
As an islander in Animal Crossing, Plucky has a favorite fruit and one she is allergic to. She is allergic to cherries and loves oranges, meaning giving her the former reduces the likelihood of her dropping Bells, and giving her the latter increases the likelihood of her dropping Bells.

House[edit]
In Animal Crossing[edit]
