Characteristics[edit]
Appearance[edit]
Like his father Chip, C.J. is a beaver and shares Chip's grey-furred appearance and buck teeth, but with several differences: his inner ears are light blue, while his eyes, which are bigger than Chip's, have blue irises and dark blue pupils. He also has a yellow tuft of hair sticking out on top of his forehead. He wears a backwards-facing baseball cap and sunglasses on his head, and is dressed in a yellow jacket-and-white shirt combination and patterned orange shorts.
Personality[edit]
As is the case with Chip, C.J. loves hosting Fishing Tourneys. He is also shown to have a background in streaming and an internet presence, as he will challenge theplayer to catch three fish of a certain size, claiming it is to "keep the fans happy." When visiting the player's island, he mentions that his "old man" showed him the ropes offishing but never was able to do it. He is also known to make many nautical and fish related puns in his dialogue.
Appearances[edit]
InNew Horizons[edit]
InAnimal Crossing: New Horizons, when C.J. appears on the player's island, he will challenge them by either catching three small fish, big fish or five fish of any kind. Once the challenge is complete, the player can sell fish to him for 150% of the sell price atNook's Cranny. He can also have his roommate and business partner Flick make fish models for free if the player gives him three of the same fish, and he willmail the model the following day.
C.J. also hosts the Fishing Tourney in January, April, July, and October. His dialogue during this time has puns related to theocean or fishing.
C.J. can also visitThe Roost if hisamiibo card is scanned at the amiibo phone; he brings Flick as a guest and vice versa. C.J. also appears alongside Chip if the latter's amiibo card is scanned. If the player scans his amiibo card inHappy Home Paradise, he will also bring along Flick to his vacation home.
C.J. will remain on the player's island until 5 a.m. the following day.
InPocket Camp[edit]
C.J. was added toAnimal Crossing: Pocket Camp in November 2020, and has since replaced Chip as the primary host of the Fishing Tourneys. He functions similarly to Chip, by accepting tourney-related fish and adding it to a total size counter, and by providing the player challenges for them to complete for prizes.
