Timmy and Tommy are the main antagonists from the Animal Crossing series. They are very special and helps the island who became such thanks to Animal Crossing: New Horizons whenever the player helps to set up the island and his shop.
Timmy and Tommy are raccoons (tanukis in the Japanese version). They are identical twins. They have brown fur with a dark brown mask-like surface that extends across their eye area. They basically look like smaller versions of Tom Nook, Timmy is a bit taller than Tommy. Their clothes change when the stores expand.
According to Tom Nook, the two can be distinguished by a mole on one of their hands.
In all versions of the first-generation games, Timmy and Tommy operate the second floor of Nookington's, offering the same functions as Tom Nook. In Dōbutsu no Mori e+, if the player uses a shovel or axe to enter Nookington's after hours they will have droopy eyelids and wear pajamas.
In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Timmy and Tommy now run their own store. In all incarnations of the store except T&T Emporium, only one of the Nooklings works at a time. At the Nookling Junction, Timmy works on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and Tommy works on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; at T&T Mart, Timmy works from 7 PM to 5 AM and Tommy works from 6 AM to 7 PM; and at Super T&T and T.I.Y., Timmy works from Friday to Sunday and Tommy works from Monday to Thursday. At T&T Emporium, Tommy works on the first floor and Timmy works on the second floor.
The first time the player visits Re-Tail, Timmy sells an item to Reese. Once their store upgrades to T&T Emporium, Timmy and Tommy begin to sign letters with their full names: Timothy and Thomas.
These will grow it to include the gardening shop and GracieGrace.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Timmy and Tommy operate the Nook Inc. development venture along with Tom Nook, and they guide the player through picking their initial appearance, name, and island layout. Prior to the construction of Nook's Cranny, Timmy sells and buys items in the Resident Services tent while Tommy wanders the island carrying a Nook Inc. handheld pennant during the day and offers advice to the player when spoken to.
The day after the player pays off their first home loan, Timmy tells them about his plan to build a store, and he gives them a list of materials to bring him. Once the store is built, Timmy and Tommy start working there.
Prior to its removal in version on the 2.0 Update, when the player scans Timmy or Tommy's amiibo and tries to invite them, they will say:
Hello, this is Timmy. Ooooh, Player! How can I help you? What? I should go camping?! Well, I appreciate you wanting me to take a break, but I'm just too busy to go. Thank you for suggesting it, though. Hope to see you in the shop soon!
Tommy here! Oh, hi, Player! How can I help? Ohhhh, a visit to the campsite would be so much fun! But I'm super busy, so I don't think I can go... Thanks for the idea, though! I really do appreciate it!
Little Timmy may look like a cute little raccoon, but behind those big, innocent eyes is the brain of a savvy businessman. When Tom Nook retires, his family business will be in good paws, that's for sure.
This little Nookling will be happy to help you at Nookington's, Tom Nook's supersized department store. But don't confuse Tommy with his brother Timmy. That hurts Tommy's feelings. And don't confuse Tommy with the grand poo-bah Tom Nook. That hurts Nook's feelings!
It is notable that Tommy seems to be directly named after Tom Nook.
Additionally, Timmy and Tommy's Spanish names, when combined, are "Tendo y Nendo". This is almost certainly a pun on the name of their creators, Nintendo, who are one of the largest video game publishers around.
They both share a birthday with the smugdeerZell. They all have a birthday on the 7th of June.
