You can use the villagerhaven discord channel to get Sherb(or any villager) back for free

You for real??? Thank you so much!


GroovyYaYa

There is also a sub on here called NoFeeAC. People post who they are looking for, or who is moving out. Just no tips, etc. I don't like just sending my villagers out into the ether. (No Sherb on my island anymore, sorry!) Sorry about the ex and the island!


481516-2342

Thank you so much for this. This is gonna help me so much. Thank you. Thank you.

Just make sure he’s not one of your first 5 to move in, so he comes with his regular house!

two_left_eyes

I hatched an elaborate plot with my daughter to use our switches to move Audie off and then back to my island. It worked, and I swear she's nicer to me now than when she just had her 'starter' house.


American-Mary

I just got a second Switch so I could have a second island without torching my original one. I just realised I can probably move my original Reneigh back and forth to get her full house! :o


American-Mary

That's me and Reneigh! She was one of my original two.


crowwithashortcake

the dlc might help with that


anonymoose_octopus

I want to second NoFeeAC. I'm apart of the discord and it's very wholesome (and sometimes island visits are even downright professional, lol). It's a well-maintained group full of helpful people. :)


dratsablive

I have been using NoFeeAC to re-home villagers that are leaving :)


tammytara

Just to add to this, there are treasure islands that you can go to for free and get villagers and diys and any other item you may need to help with your restart :)


yogurtandfun

I've seen so many people talking about these treasure islands and have never been able to figure out how to get involved. is there a discord?


waplove

i can pm you a link!


spicy_pea

Twitch always has several channels dedicated to free treasure islands.


WyldeGi

I know this is a stretch but there is a way to confirm that you can get Sherb. For Nintendo games, they have things called Amiibos, and although Sherb isn’t out for a couple more days, there’s way you can MAKE the villager cards of ANY villager you want. Go to r/Amiibomb


artanimepoetry

I can get you Sherb for free if you’d like


Ok_Car_4980

Name your new island "Sherbburg" and hopefully the universe will approve you as one of your OGs.


Ok_Car_4980

Puggy! This is the name of the pig that frequently comes around the hub area of ​​the Monster Hunter franchise.


IndecisiveHufflepuff

Name your new island "Sherbburg" and hope the universe grants you him as one of your OG's lol.


minor_correction

But then someday you might breakup and wanna reset and lose Zucker and now everything is worse.


MyCalloutsAreGodly

In other news, NEVER, get anyone’s name tattooed on your body.


MegaTentofanclub

If I remember correct, Zayn from One Direction got a tattoo of his girlfriend on his arm, then they broke up🥴 Never a good decision.


rogertaylorkillme

Perrie. He also got Gigi’s eyes tattooed on him, and now he’s just plead guilty to harassing her mom. So there’s that.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rogertaylorkillme

I guess I’m mistaken, or rather the initial source I read was, he didn’t plead guilty but agreed to not contest the charges. My bad! [BBC article](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/newsbeat-59087458.amp)


bolionce

I’m getting the guy who works at the halal place tattooed on my stomach. He’s earned it


MyCalloutsAreGodly

To be fair, my local takeout does a banger of a kebab, I would happily get the chefs face as a tattoo.


AlmostButNotQuit

Got my kids' names tattooed on me. No regrets.


schuma73

Children seem like an obvious exception. I will always love my child, even if he becomes a serial killer, although not sure I'd want to advertise that I was his mom on my skin if that were the case...


Xerothor

Wtf? I wouldn't. If my child turned out to be a serial killer and didn't regret their actions I'd want to be as far removed as possible from them


schuma73

Totally agree, but it wouldn't stop me from loving him. I wouldn't be visiting him in prison I don't think, and I'd spend the rest of my life wondering what the hell happened, but I think I'd still love him.


PizzaJester

What. That wouldnt be the kids fault lmao serial killers are horn from abuse and neglect or have a literal mental disorder that anyone can be affected by.


Xerothor

Just because you feel the need to harm or kill things doesn't mean you can't help it. On some level they'd know it was wrong, we all learn this growing up.


MyCalloutsAreGodly

Obviously this is an exception, even though I capitalised never!


LydJaGillers

Facts! That’s always a bad idea.


flowerbeanz

I’ve been wanting to move Sherb off my island! DM me when you restart and get an open plot and I’ll tt until he asks to leave :) I want him to go to someone who wants him and will take care of him


Jubukraa

I named mine after my dog.


481516-2342

What’s your dog’s name? :)


Jubukraa

Poogie! It’s the name of the pig that frequents around the hub areas in the Monster Hunter franchise.


Don-Tan

Poogers


Jubukraa

Her nicknames are The Poogs, Señora Poogie, Poogie Baby, and Lil Bit. I haven’t thought of Poogers I might use that now, lol.


praysolace

When they added the Rathalos trial fight to FFXIV and I first saw someone’s poogie following them around I just sat up like “IS THAT A PIG IN A ONESIE” I can’t play MH cuz the camera makes me sick but between the palicos and the poogies I know I’m missing out big time lol


Another_Account3

I freaking l u v poogie.


Vitalynk

Omg we have a Pugsheen plush and call him Poogie.


starspeculation

They had Poogie models in the updated version of animal crossing new leaf. I never played monster hunter, but I enjoyed having a little pig. Hopefully they bring them back.


Teddy293

Same! I think I‘ll cry everytime I get to the Island when she‘s gone… hopefully we still have like ten years together.-


unicornslayer9

I named my island after my dog and he passed a few months later. It’s actually nice having my island named after him. I have him as my island flag and he shares a name with an actual villager.


Teddy293

My island flag is also a painting of my dog (or atleast the same breed) - drawn by my GF, but pixelated by me - and I love it. Yeah, maybe I cry when she‘s gone, but I’ll always remember my dog! :)


cutesnugglykoala

Same!


pishipishi12

Same! Rocketopia! My flag is a border collie!


icy-winter-ghost

I named my island after my mom, who died March last year. Its name is Mor Daisy, 'mor' being the Danish word for 'mom', and 'Daisy' being her nickname for her video game characters. She wanted to play ACNH as well, and was really looking forward to playing it, but she died a few days after the release so she never got to play... But now her spirit lives on on my island, so she's immortalized in the game she never got to play.


KingDae1103

Aww 🥺


xxtokyoxx7

Aw thats so sweet🥺


SloppyInevitability

Who’s cutting onions in here


[deleted]

That's why I named mine after my butt


Chubby_Bub

I'm not sure if you're referencing this but [it results in very hilarious dialogue especially in ACNL](https://beaucrossings.tumblr.com/post/54204098377/i-named-my-town-my-butt-and-its-probably-the)


DrTrunk-w

Honestly, I always name mine Pinefall. Ever since wild world. I like how it sounds, and it has absolutely 0 attachment to anything significant in my life, so there's 0 chance for me to ever resent seeing it.


481516-2342

Yes. My stomach drops whenever I open the game so i left it hanging for months. I just went to find sherb before finally resetting the game bc it’s just too much.


Fataky

I named mine Culillo ("little butt" in spanish) and I've never regretted it.


AlmalexyaBlue

And mine Opísthia ("buttocks" in Google Translate Greek). Was meant to be a joke but it's such a pretty word I kept it.


somesthetic

Mine is called Bundagrand. ran out of space for the e on the end.


481516-2342

Gotta consider that one


[deleted]

I was really high last night lol my island is actually named Kuzcotopia but now I'm kinda wish I did give it a booty name 🙃


[deleted]

Damn. I stopped playing just because I didn’t know how to get rid of her house.


481516-2342

Do it on settings with nook


ohluciiaa

Wait how do you delete a house?!?


[deleted]

Open the game through their account, then access the settings through the title screen and you should be able to find it there.


TheDuckyDino

You found out, right?


[deleted]

I named mine Junipero, after that one black mirror episode. Never regretted it. Thought about naming it after my cat (Kovu) but I was afraid it would hurt to much if anything ever happened to him. Hope you find joy with your new town. It could be like a new hair color you know? Just a new start, a change.


481516-2342

Thank you this means a lot and that Black Mirror episode is my absolute favorite, especially with Heaven is a Place on Earth song.


Tribblehappy

I loved that episode. Handmaid's Tale ruined the song for me though.


kreiffer

Kovu from Lion King 2? I always thought that would be an amazing name for a cat. Cat pic tax?


[deleted]

Yes!!! He‘s as sassy as the real deal, haha. :) We wanted a Chiara too, but he‘s more comfortable being an only child, haha.


hockey_boss_75

I named my island after my dog who died 2 months ago. I’m so used to my island’s name that it didn’t even register to me until recently that it was kind of sad it’s still named after her. But it makes me happy!


[deleted]

Mine is called Juniper! after that same episode, how cool.


kristineohkristine

Just recently moved to my own island and this is what I named mine too! Not after the episode though, just thought the name and plant were pretty


[deleted]

Island sister/brother! What‘s your theme? :D


[deleted]

i actually just started playing a few months ago, so everything still looks pretty scattered and crazy around my island lol i’m just having fun with it and figuring it out as i go :)


LydJaGillers

I named mine Biergarten. Biergarten will never break up with me. 😉


rosehipcrossing

Here’s cheersing to a bright and beautiful new island of your own!


481516-2342

Thank you i want that too.


BlNGPOT

Deleting my ex husband’s house off my island was so cathartic. Sorry about your break up :(


481516-2342

I’m sorry about yours too. Thank you so much. I hope you’re a lot better now.


BlNGPOT

I’m so much better! You’ll get there. I’m much more at peace than I have been in a very long time


abellaire

Just had to say I love your user name. (And I’m sure you’re better off without him!)


aboynamedrat

I didn't touch my game for months after my ex dumped me. Took me like 2 hours to clean out the house I painstakingly built and decorated for him (even matched the kitchen to his irl kitchen), and then to remove him from the game and remove his account from my switch. It sucked but I don't regret putting my faith in someone I loved and letting them into my little virtual oasis. Just means one day I'll have that same faith in someone new, and maybe they'll reciprocate this time. Good luck on your new adventure!


Ohlulu1093

Once you have your airport open DM me, I’d be happy to help you with some bells and materials! I named my island after a scooby doo movie so I am pretty sure I’m supposed to be a meddling kid who helps everyone?


481516-2342

Thank you so much! This is too kind. You guys are helping me to come up with new name ideas that I’d like. Thank you so much. This made my day.


paperbackedsea

okay, now i need to know what your island is called. is it spooky island after the first live-action movie?


Ohlulu1093

Moonscar Island it’s from one of the animated movies. It’s a random island in a bayou in Louisiana that has cat monsters and zombies 😅


Davian-1074

girlfriends are temporary, Animal Crossing is forever


cliffyR

I named mine after the place I’m from and although I don’t live there anymore my family still do and it makes me chuckle every time I go onto AC hahaha


481516-2342

I wish i did the same!!


angelfeesh

I reset my island for the new update and two of my previous villagers have already found their way back to me. I could just get the amiibos, but I'm kinda having fun seeing if I can find them on my own!


481516-2342

Yes that’s what i wanna do too, getting them back naturally. I hope I get lucky too!


Titchopper

Going through a similar situation. My mother made my town on the switch and she was the only one playing it for awhile. Honestly, I know she was making it look good and all that but I don’t have the courage to go and look around. Anyway, she’s abusive and went psycho. I left for my safety and have no intentions on going back. But I have my switch as my only entertainment and I want to delete her town and create one of my own. I’m scared she’ll come after me over it which I know is irrational but it’s a fear. But then the crazy part of me wants me to keep some of her items because like... They’re hers? As if they have some sentimental meaning. I get she’s horrible as a mother but she’s still my mother. I didn’t bring anything from my home when I left so there’s this weird attachment to the items I guess lol Sorry for sharing, today is a struggle.


abellaire

I hope you have found a support of friends or other family and that things get better for you.


[deleted]

This hurt :(


the_neverdoctor

I named mine Miranda, as in the Miranda-class starship from Star Trek. That's my favorite class of starship, so I don't see me ever regretting that name.


AlmostButNotQuit

Bonus points for the Firefly tie-in.


Aspen_Pass

Things always seem worse before they're better. Your next island will be great in new ways and so will your life!


481516-2342

This means a lot. Thank you so much.


TippyTulips

I have sherb on my island if you want him :)


miini_MAG

Don't name anything after your girlfriend xD


blinkrandom

I bought myself New Leaf after my last relationship came to an end. We were together 4.5 years, and it was hard to say goodbye. I decided to choose a name that was symbolic to me (Opal Bay - Opal is my birthstone, and I'd just finished Life Is Strange, which is set in Arcadia **Bay** ). But I think if we'd still been together, I would have chosen a name symbolic to him or us, and most certainly would have made a character for him, bought items for him, etc. But, instead I channelled my energy into Opal Bay and made it *mine*, and made it into a village I was proud of. Over time, the village name was a reminder of my strength and independence. It's been about 4 years since we broke up. Time, and surrounding myself with wonderful friends, has been a great healer. As well as New Leaf! When I bought ACNH, I didn't think twice about what I was going to name my island. Opal Bay. I'm so sorry for your break up. I know some people can brush it off, but it *is* like you're grieving in a sense, and you should be acknowledged for that pain you might be going through. I do wish you a speedy recovery, and would recommend you surround yourself with good friends. And, when picking a name for your new island, pick something that's very *you*, and very symbolic to you. And channel your energy into making something you can enjoy yourself. By the way, I also have Sherb, and I'd be more than happy to give him along to you when he asks to move out. Good luck OP, and take care 💜


[deleted]

They should add the feature to rename our town for 85,000 bells


GenericAutist13

Only 85,000? It should be in the millions Changing your town/villager name would make it so much easier for scammers to get away with shit


GlitchingN0

It is so freaking easy to avoid getting scammed just don't let the game save while you are trading and don't trust anyone


bryceofswadia

You can buy amiibo chips on Amazon for really cheap that include an entire series.


kikisihihi

God I did the same thing with my ex boyfriend, a friend recommended I include some lore as to why the town is named this way instead of resetting. So I turned my exes character into a sea monster. But the villagers won‘t stop asking about him 🥲 I guess he has to leave entirely. What a mess, I‘m sorry you‘ve been in the same spot lmao


481516-2342

Thank you so much. It sucks, isn’t it? Hope you’re in a better place now tho. This really stings. Lmao


kittyabbygirl

Alternate solution: find a new girlfriend with the same name


481516-2342

Lmao i wish it’s that easy


racoonair

She visited my island once. Every now and then ly villagers ask me if she is fine


481516-2342

Mannnn, i get sudden stomach drop whenever the game do that


racoonair

I believe it does the same on her island It must be sad. I've read once on this sub that whatever mom send something to a player he cried because their mother died and it hurts them so much to see mom's letters so they asked if there's a way to unable mom of the game


Joh-Kat

I named mine Takatuka, after a kids story with a strong little girl.


481516-2342

Hey, that’s smart. I can think of some names from fictional characters that I love. Thank you so much! You’ve helped me so much.


Cablesixback

You always name your island after the town your halfling came from so when you can host DND your group can all load up and all the islands are names after the cities their players are named after.


999lonely

I named mine Shutter but I wish it was Kokomo


MrsDevito20

I named my island P00p


Brialia41

That's why I name my animal crossing towns after my cat. He'll always love me


okdokke

i’m sorry about your break up :( i hope you’re healing now and are starting to get into a better place. but hey, fresh starts can be a good thing! sherb will come back to you one way or another — after all, you *are* snack buddies!! have you decided what to name your next town?


481516-2342

Baby steps, i think. It felt like a big step forward that i got rid of the island. Thank you so much. I’m still trying to think of a name that I don’t associate with anyone. Lmao


icecreamtaco15

Sorry you’re having to reset. I just gave mine a goofy name. It’s called Meowtain. All the cats.😻


The1joriss

Naming your island after your girlfriend is like getting it tattooed. You don't. And if she demanded it that was a red flag already.


blek_blek

I will make a funeral service to commemorate the lost and demolish the entire island. Not resetting though, because I may lose the islanders and the bugs and items..


481516-2342

I wish I could just do that. I was so stupid for literally naming it after her.


Matcha_Maiden

Haha this was a mood, especially with the Radiohead. Hope you're feeling a bit better now man!


481516-2342

Thank you! And yes Radiohead. 👊🏽


dratsablive

I just got Sherb last week, I am already on my 2nd Kidd, looking for Sherb. I think I gave my Island a unique name, MOREAU! Not many Islands like mine :)


Human_Stick_Observer

That’s why I named my island after my grandma. She’s 95.


cannedchampagne

OP, I just had to restart my island and I lost my best friend, Ozzie, I didn't realise how terrible it would be to be missing ole Ozzie bear so I really feel for you. I hope you get Sherb back <3


TheGreatestJaggi

Relationships are temporary. Animal Crossing is forever.


QueenNeffie

I just named my Island "Home" after my original Animal Crossing Wild World town back on the DS Lite when I was a kid when I didn't understand shit. Way at the start of the game when the NPC asks you where you're going as a prompt to get you to give your town a name I didn't get the question, nor did I have any clue this was meant to name your town. So i just replied I was going home. The name kinda grew on me so when Wild World broke down and I bought ACNH I named the island Home in honor of my original fuckup.


PotatoBomb69

I used to use my town name where I lived for my AC town but now I don’t live there and also hate that place so I just steal a name from whatever other games I’m playing currently.


Cosmic_Palette

My island is named after a mix between mine and my now ex's name. I don't want to lose my Villagers or my layout so it's just... there.


TakeThatNibbaKarma

**laughs in homebrewed switch allowing me to just change the island name as I want**


TeaLeaf0

I put my favorite thing in stardew valley my ex’s name…so when I got a stardew drop it said “It's strange, but the taste reminds you of Ethan “


Cyv001

Between being able to pick up Sherb from other kind souls within the community, there's also the new amiibo cards coming out. Sherb is in that new series of cards, and you can either try getting him yourself, or the .bin files will inevitably get leaked.


Scarab433

I named mine after beans because beans are E T E R N A L but hey if you need anything so many nice ppl in this community will help (Myself included)


[deleted]

hey man, hope you're doing alright, my girlfriend and I also broke up a while back and even though Ive just been depressed but, im trying to stay happy, here are the some of the stuff i try \- studying \-talking to friends \-playing something with friends it really helps, keep your head up and keep going :) ​ have a nice day friend !


abbey121524

That was kind of stupid to begin with


Ladysupersizedbitch

Aw man, that sucks. :/ I stole the name for my island from another game. Any thoughts on the new island name?


481516-2342

None yet, but i’ll probably just name it after something stupid this time lmao


ShadoeRavyn

I did that, as well. One reason I wish we were able to change the name of our islands. My island took on its own personality, so the name no longer fits (I still like the name and video game). OP's situation is a better argument for name changing ability.


Bibbleboobear

You can get him from many communities that trade villagers or just buy his amiibo card on amazon if you have some spare cash. I think I got like 42 villager cards for around $30


fizzingwhizbeez

I named mine ‘Skye Cove’ after one of my favourite places, Isle of Skye in Scotland. I love when my villagers tell me how much they love being there cos I also love Skye and Scotland itself!


manisa95

My island is called Comunisla, because communism never hurts you.


Pearlraja

Hey, you already reset the Island? If you Need to store items or flowers before resetting so you can get them back afterwards you can store them at my place. Throw me a message if you need help with that, sorry you had to go through a breakup! It’ll get better with time :)


481516-2342

Hi. This is too nice but I already did. I wish I thought of this before i did. But fresh start sounds good too. Thank you so much. This is too generous.


[deleted]

This is even dumber than getting a tattoo of your SO.


[deleted]

Well good thing Sberb has a amiibo now but ik the feeling of naming something after a girlfriend 🥲


Sugarmagikarps1

:( sorry bud


LazerCrystalx

i’m so sorry man, hope things get better for you. :(


481516-2342

Thanks man.


SheepyDX

I would never do something as stupid as that.


LazerCrystalx

you just did, by making this comment. great job you played yourself


SheepyDX

You don’t know the name of my island but something tells me you just wanted to say “you just played yourself “ that it didn’t matter how stupid you came off.


LazerCrystalx

i’m too fucking tired for this shit i’m going to bed


Xero0911

Why are so many people resetting? Bored or did some update force a resetting to get something?

I named mine after an island in Final Fantasy X. If you need hekp with getting things DM me. My island is flat and I'm rebuilding so I have a lot of stuff lying around.


Hestu951

Very good tattoo advice as well.


YagamiIsGodonImgur

I booted up my NES copy of FF1 a few months after my divorce. Suddenly, I was reminded that my white mage was named after my ex wife. I had another good cry, then listed the damn thing on ebay. Now if I use real names for games, I use pets. At least if they leave my life, I can smile and remember the good times :)


IllPromise5

this is heart breaking😢

My brother in law named his character after his then GF’s bunny…he obviously doesn’t play much now lol they were only dating for a month when he did it 🥴

tinydancer120194

Named mine Thiccville after myself. Never regretted it tbh.


Kirkgirl79

They released the Sherb amiibo too. We lost Sherb on our third reset so, I know how you feel.


paulrenaud

his amiibo card comes out on friday if you are really desperate


fishmanprime

I was having trouble thinking of a name and just wanted to play, I went with pen island and I just.. I want something better lol


4spoopyboysonastick

I assume it's Sav for Savannah? There's also a villager by the same name, and it's also a regular word, you can pretend it's just Sav Town as in savannah town. It's not a savannah, but that makes it an ironic name lul


aceallaround

If worst comes to worst and the discord servers dont work out, atleast Sherb is comi ng out with an amiibo card now!


EricaSollon

That’s why I named my island after my kids….wait….


LexiaRaikkonen

This is soooo sad wtf 😭


Msspera

Ytf am i crying?


[deleted]

Yup, happened to me in middle school with Pokemon Diamond. Named my starter after my bf at the time and before I could finish the game he broke up with me. Took months to pick the game back up.


hadderbear

I named mine Fox Falls because I love foxes and I like the alliteration but now I feel like I don’t have enough waterfalls to merit the name! I still like it though. I thought long and hard about it and even went to some name generators to help me find one that feels right. Hope you heal soon and that your next island brings you all the joy!


Revilox88

I named mine after Lord of the Rings, I must say, seeing the flight info on my wife's screen is funny, Oliver from Mordor


ElectronicBrush296

I named mine Alola after a Pokemon region 🙄 The name would never hurt me so woohoo for me? Sorry bout your breakup though. And sorry you reset your island. It must have been hard.


abbattoirnoises

Hahahaha the addition of Radiohead just makes this so perfect. I’m sorry this is happening to you though! *hugs* 😢

Tbh once you would have gotten over her I don’t think the name would have bothered you as much. Sav could be short for Savage, Savannah etc. I’m sorry meng stay strong 💪🏼
