What is the RAREST creature in Animal Crossing: New Horizons? 🐟

What is the rarest creature in Animal Crossing: New Horizons? With over 200 bugs, fish, and sea creatures the Coelacanth is the rarest fish. It's only available while it's raining on your island and has a 2% chance of spawning. Have you caught one?

Fun fact: The reason why it's so rare is because in real life, they are very hard to find. And there's only two species.

One time I was trying to catch a regular sea bass for the museum and I reeled up a Coelacanth, it was the most surprising thing I had ever seen

Trying to find one when you have 0 caught: 😠
Rarity after you catch one: 🙂

Meanwhile I’m sitting in my house with at least 20

Every time it rains on my island I fish around 5

i raise you Mahi-Mahi
or any fish that has held you up from fianlly finishing your critterpedia

My brother accidentally caught one while trying to help me with catching the Oarfish

Also I’m pretty sure it’s a cicada shell because the only show up for two months and are really really rare because they show up on the months where most tree bugs are around.

flea: Greetings.
fly: hello!
Giraffe Stag: Bounjour
Golden Stag: Golden to you!

I caught at least four.
One because I donated one to the museum.
Two, three, four because I got the figurine 😂

Everybody: WHERE‘S THIS STUPID FISH!
Me: *catches him on coincidence*

If you’re looking for 15k each fish, look for the dorado. It’s much easier to find and I have 53 total sold

I have never caught one. I try everytime it rains but I have never caught one. Whenever I see someone (I’ve seen it in one video) let it go because they are “tired of catching them” I just get surprised that they have caught so many that they are sick of them.

Meanwhile I have over 50 stacked on top of eachother on my island

This is because in irl people found fossils of this fish, they thought it went extinct, so much in fact they named it the fossil fish they are so incredibly rare and aren't normally just swimming around at a coral reef. Really cool fish.

I caught two of them in a row yesterday as soon as I turned on the game 😅

[SelmaMoreno-fc]

Tbh, ive never thought that fish is the rarest. I've Catched it like a Billion times and I was having a hard time trying to Catch small fish

The Coelacanth in Animal Crossing is as rare as its Pokemon counterpart.

[chalizardarbok]

The funny thing is that I got it my first day of pkaying

[GrahamThatDog]

I caught my first coelacanth a few months ago. I instantly ran to Blathers to donate it

I was playing while watching this and I caught it, I can't believe myself
