Who is Animal Crossing’s Isabelle?
The adorable character Animal Crossing Isabelle is a Shih Tzu dog that first appears in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. Her name is a pun on the phrase ‘is-a-bell,’ and also a play on the currency bells, which villagers use in Animal Crossing. In Japanese, her name is Shizue.
Her first appearance is in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, where she helps the player character as they become mayor of their own town. She appears in New Horizons as an assistant to Tom Nook once the town hall is built, and can assist you with townly duties like changing your flag design or town tune.
What is Animal Crossing Isabelle’s personality?
Animal Crossing’s Isabelle is a bright and enthusiastic character who works hard to help out townsfolk and consistently displays a professional and pleasant attitude. She has a good sense of humor and loves her friends and family fiercely, including her brother Digby.
Other townsfolk often mention that Isabelle is easy to talk to and that she’s a positive influence on the island. However, Isabelle is afraid of confrontation, which is very funny considering her appearance in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Isabelle presents herself as somewhat clumsy, a characteristic that plays into her Smash Bros playstyle, as Isabelle trips over and smashes a plant pot as one of her moves.
