“So if you're having a hard time sleeping at any point, you should come over to my place.”
― Colton, Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Colton (アンソニー, Ansonī) is a smug horse villager in the Animal Crossing series. His English name comes from the word colt, a young male horse. His catchphrase likely refers to both his smug personality and the act of "checking" opponents in chess. His noble theming and knightly pose in his Animal Crossing: New Leaf render give him a knight motif, referencing the white horse-shaped knight piece in chess.

He is featured on the cover of Café K.K. and he has the nature hobby.

Personality

Below is a brief description of the smug personality. For more information, click here.

Colton has a smug personality, meaning he will appear kind and gentleman-like. He will get along well with other villagers. Occasionally, he will flirt with the player, especially if they are female. He seems to be a mix of other personality types. Smug villagers cannot be a default resident, and must move in after the player becomes mayor. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons he goes to sleep at 2 AM and wakes up at 7 AM.

House

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Colton's house has a very fancy feel to it. He has a regal carpet and many items from the regal series, which matches his color. There is a metronome on top of his regal table, and a turntable playing Only Me. He also has a caladium plant.

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Colton's house has beige and gray brick exterior with an elegant white door and yellow shingled roof.

Trivia

• Incredibly subtle, but Colton's catchphrase, "check it" may be a reference to chess, adding his nobleman theming and the rather knightly looking bow on his official image. This may make him the White Knight to Roscoe's Black.
• Colton's elegant taste, extravagant personality, stylish blond hair, and ringmaster clothing indicate that he may be a reference to stereotypical male idols, which are a kind of Japanese pop singer who take on exaggerated personalities to appeal to fans. They are often models, as well as actors and singers, which matches Colton's goal. Their hair is often heavily styled and dyed light colors such as blond, and members of idol groups tend to wear customized uniforms with a front laced pattern similar to the ringmaster coat. His catchphrase, "check it", may be a reference to sound checks at a musical performance.
• Another theory is that Colton's design and appearance may be strongly inspired by Oscar François de Jarjayes, the main protagonist of the successful shōjo manga series The Rose of Versailles. His blonde spiky mane, blue eyes, androgynous appearance, chivalry attitudes and regal, elegant clothes may all be a reference to Oscar. In addition, he's a white horse, like Oscar's favorite horse.
• Colton shares the same birthday with Mabel. They share a birthday on May 22.
• In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Colton's preferred styles are Elegant/Gorgeous, and his preferred colors are Blue/Red.
