How to read the list
Prices are in Bells. A check mark means the species is available in that month. Scroll the table sideways to see all twelve months. Read the habitat as well as the month: flowers, palm trees, buried insects and villager fleas need different catching approaches. Moth hours are corrected to 7 PM–4 AM using Nookipedia’s Wild World entry.
