There are hundreds of characters to meet and befriend in the long line ofAnimal Crossinggames with a variety of different personalities, likes, dislikes, and races. Several of these Villagers are bears, and one of the most teddy-bear-looking of them all is Stitches. He’s a lazy Villager that most players either find adorable or a little creepy.
Stitches began hisAnimal Crossingcareer with his introduction inWild Worldback in 2005. He has continued his lazy way throughCity Folk, thenNew Leaf,and onto the newest in the series,New Horizons. Stitches has also appeared in several of the spinoff games of the series, likePocket CampandHappy Home Designer. Unlike many otherbear Villagers like Teddyand June, Stitches doesn’t resemble a real bear, but a stuffed child’s toy instead. He is a multi-colored bear with sewn X’s instead of eyes, looking like he was sewn together from scraps of fabric instead of being all one color. He is one of only five Villagers in anyAnimal Crossinggame that technically isn’t an animal; although bear shaped, he’s more of a toy than an actual animal.

Stitches was born February 10, making him an Aquarius and the only bear Villager born in that month. He does not share hisbirthday with seasonalAnimal Crossingcharactersor any other Villager currently. When not calling the player “stuffin'” or lounging around, Stitches can be found in his toybox-like home, decorated to look like a children’s playhouse to fit his look as a teddy bear.
Being Lazy, Stitches is fairly easy to befriend in any game he appears in. He loves colorful items, playful furniture, multi-colored clothing that is Funky, and likes his coffee with one sugar and just a splash of milk. He dislikes “cool” or “iconic” items that players can present to him as gifts. Although this Villager has been around for a long time, he still regularly hits the top-most tier ofAnimal CrossingVillager tier lists, along with Bob and Lucky.
Stitches is usually found wearing his iconic white shirt with multi-colored stars all over it, called the “Starry Tank,” “Star Shirt,” or “Star Tee” depending on whichAnimal Crossinggame players are currently playing.
But whether players consider him to be the cutest, most desirable bear or something out of a toy-themed nightmare,Animal Crossing: New Horizonsplayers consider him a coveted Villager, and he was one of the many most-sought after in theAnimal CrossingVillager Black Markets.
