<!--Despite the presence of two genders available for the Villager in both the Animal Crossing series and Super Smash Bros. 4, SmashWiki uses male pronouns when addressing the character due to the male's greater prominence in their reveal trailer and the official site.-->
The '''Villager''' ({{ja|むらびと|Murabito}}, ''Villager'') is a representation of the player characters from the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} series.

==Character description==
In the ''[[Animal Crossing (universe)|Animal Crossing]]'' series, the player acts as the sole human in a town filled with friendly anthropomorphic animals. The player doesn't have a universal appearance, with the look of the player being determined by a series of questions presented by the first non-playable character the player interacts with. Usually this NPC is Rover the Cat, who introduces the player to ''Animal Crossing''. This survey not only determines the player's face, but also the villager's gender, the name of their town, and the layout of their town.

While the role of the villager varies very slightly in the series, the general consensus is that the villager lives his or her life in this town with animals. Unlike most games, there is no universal plot to the series but there are plenty of things for the player to do such as go fishing, shopping, designing clothing, etc. The villager also tends to the town's environment such as by planting flowers or by cutting down excess trees.

In the latest title, ''Animal Crossing: New Leaf'', the role of the villager is expanded to the villager acting as the town mayor, and this gives the player greater control in managing and customizing their town.

The villagers featured in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' are based off of several default player designs in ''Animal Crossing: Wild World'' and ''Animal Crossing: City Folk'', with the default villager being based on the boy on the boxart of ''City Folk''.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
The Villager is mentioned in both [[List of SSBM trophies (Others)#Tom Nook|K.K. Slider's and Tom Nook's trophy descriptions]].

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
The Villager appears as a [[background character]] in [[Smashville]]. The Villager was considered as a character in the planning stages of ''Brawl'', but dropped because "he wasn't suited for battle".<ref>[http://www.polygon.com/2013/6/26/4465706/masahiro-sakurai-discusses-mega-man-smash-bros-s-other-new-characters Masahiro Sakurai discusses the reasons for choosing Super Smash Bros.' latest characters - Polygon]</ref>

A Villager also appears as a trophy in ''Brawl'', in which he is called "Animal Crossing Boy".
:''The male player character from Animal Crossing. He feels the need to set out on his own and move into town. Chatting with neighbors is a given, but there are a ton of other things to do as well, like collecting furniture, customizing rooms, catching fish and bugs, digging up fossils, etc. He may get bee stung or fall in a pit, but he still has fun.''

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
[[File:Villager SSB4.png|thumb|right|Villager as he appears in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''.]]
{{Main|Villager (SSB4)}}
The male Villager was confirmed as a playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' in the first trailer shown for the game at [[E3]] 2013. His moveset consists of attacking with various miscellaneous objects from the ''Animal Crossing'' series, and is capable of picking up any item or projectile to throw it later.

On May 16th it was [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqF8jv3irg confirmed] that, like the [[Wii Fit Trainer]], players will have access to both male and female variations of the Villager.

Currently, Villager ranks 25th out of 55 on the [[tier list]], placing within the C tier. Villager has a highly effective zoning game thanks to his forward and back aerial slingshot [[projectile]]s, and his [[Lloid Rocket]]. He himself can also counter opposing projectiles with his [[Pocket]] special,  allowing him to catch and store away projectiles, which he can then send back to the opponent with amplified damage. Timber can also be used for a potentially devastating [[edge-guarding]] move. Despite his [[weight]] class, Villager sports some rather powerful attacks, such as up and down aerials, and forward smash. Yet, Villager's weaknesses lay in his slow grab, and lack of reliable KO set-ups despite the aforementioned power. Regardless, Villager is seen as a very capable character for tournament play, earning him strong results.

:{{flag|ntsc}} ''An energetic young man from a peaceful town in Animal Crossing, he is eager to make his Smash Bros. debut! His Balloon Trip recovery lets him fly like a character from Balloon Fight. The Villager sets out to answer that age-old question: If a tree falls on the battlefield and foes are beneath it, do they get launched?''
:{{flag|pal}} ''This chipper chap came all the way from his quiet little village to do a bit of aerial sightseeing, take Lloid out for a spin, look after the trees and maybe do some bowling. If you're very lucky, he might even bring along Tom Nook and the Nooklings and throw everyone a party. Gosh, this all sounds like such fun!''

:{{flag|ntsc}} ''Just a normal girl living a normal life in a normal town—her special moves, however, are anything but. She can pocket items, projectiles, and even beams, and then pull them out at a moment's notice. Her down special lets her plant a tree, water it, and chop it down. If she leaves the tree standing, she can use the axe against foes.''
:{{flag|pal}} ''This girl's special moves are very special indeed. The standard one lets you pocket items, projectiles and even laser beams, then use them by pressing the button again. Her down special plants a tree, which you can water and finally chop down to hurt other fighters. Or you can leave the tree alone and attack with the axe. Up to you.''
