This guide will walk you through everything you need to know, from the basics of your native fruit to the sneaky ways of acquiring all the other yummy options. So, grab your nets, prepare your pockets, and let's dive into the fruity world of Animal Crossing!

Understanding Your Native Fruit and the Basics

Alright, guys, let's start with the fundamentals. When you first start your Animal Crossing adventure, your island will have a native fruit. This is the fruit that grows on your trees naturally, and it's the fruit you'll find readily available from the get-go. Common native fruits include apples, cherries, pears, peaches, and oranges. Your native fruit is super important because it's the foundation of your island's economy in the early game. You can sell it, eat it for energy, or use it in DIY recipes.

So, how do you figure out what your native fruit is? Easy peasy! Just look at the trees on your island. The fruit hanging from those trees is your native fruit. Keep in mind that you can only get your native fruit by shaking the trees on your island, or by planting the seeds of that fruit which can be acquired by consuming the fruit. That means you can only plant a tree of your native fruit at first. Keep in mind that each fruit can be sold and they also give you energy. You can eat the fruit that you have on hand to gain energy, you can see how much energy you've gained by checking the number of stars you have on the top left corner of the screen. Having energy allows you to dig up trees with a shovel, break rocks, and more.

Why is knowing your native fruit important? Because this is the fruit you'll start with! You will want to plant it all over your island. And more importantly, you will need to get non-native fruits! Each fruit sells for a different price, and you can only sell your fruits in the shop, or you can even invite your friends to visit your island and sell the fruit that you have on hand to make a profit.

Your native fruit will be your primary source of income when starting, because you won't have other fruits to sell, that is why knowing the fruit that you have on hand is very important. To sell your native fruit, you will need to first get it from the trees. If you see a tree that is not from your native fruit you will need to plant it to grow a new tree. Always keep a close eye on the trees on your island to keep making a profit from the native fruits that you have available.

Acquiring Other Fruits: Your Fruity Adventure Begins!

Now for the exciting part! Getting your hands on non-native fruits is where the real fun begins. There are a few key methods to expand your fruity horizons, and each one requires a bit of effort and, of course, a dash of island-hopping adventure.

• Visiting Mystery Islands: Early in the game, after you build Nook's Cranny, you will be able to visit mystery islands by using Nook Miles Tickets. These islands are randomly generated and can contain a variety of resources, including other fruits! When you arrive, be sure to shake all the trees and collect any fruits you find. This is one of the easiest ways to get your hands on a variety of different fruits, even the ones you don't already have! These islands are only accessible after you get a plane ticket. You will need to purchase a ticket to explore these new islands. Each island has different resources, so you will want to visit as many islands as you can.

• Trading with Friends: One of the best parts of Animal Crossing is the community. Reach out to your friends who also play the game and see if they have any fruits you don't. You can visit their islands and trade for the fruits you need. This is a great way to help each other out and expand your fruit collection, as well as make new friends. To get fruits from your friends, you'll need to visit their islands. To visit your friends, you will need to add them as friends, and then ask them for the dodo code. After you have the dodo code from your friend, you can go to the airport and fly to your friend's island. Make sure that you have enough space to carry the fruits, to ensure that you get the fruits that you want from your friends. Make sure to always be respectful and avoid doing anything that your friend won't like, because that might ruin your friendship.

• Trading with Other Players Online: The Animal Crossing community is huge, and there are tons of online forums, social media groups, and Discord servers dedicated to the game. You can often find players willing to trade fruits (and other items) for something you have to offer. This can be a fast way to get fruits that you're missing, and it's a great way to meet new people. You can find many groups on Facebook, Reddit, or other social media sites. Always be careful when trading online. Check the credibility of the person you are trading with, and make sure to establish the terms of the trade. Always make sure to ask your friend before trading online! When trading with someone that is not your friend, be very careful and always ask for help if you are unsure.

• Getting Fruits from Your Mom: Sometimes, your in-game mom will send you gifts through the mail. She might include some fruits, so always check your mailbox! This is a simple and unexpected way to get some extra fruits without doing much effort. This is one of the best ways to get extra fruits, but you might not get many fruits through this method.

• Harvesting From Your Native Tree: You can only harvest fruits from your native tree, to plant new trees from your non-native fruits. You'll need to eat your fruits in order to get energy to plant your new trees. Always make sure to have energy to plant your trees. This will help you get new non-native fruits. This is one of the essential steps when trying to obtain new fruits, and this is the easiest way to have all kinds of fruits in your island.

Planting and Growing Your Fruity Bounty

Alright, so you've collected some new fruits! Now what? Well, the next step is planting them on your island and watching them grow. Planting trees is pretty straightforward, but here's a little extra guidance:

• Dig a Hole: Use your shovel to dig a hole where you want to plant your fruit tree. Make sure you have enough space between the holes. If the trees are too close, it might not grow and this can affect the speed in which new trees grow.

• Plant the Fruit: Select the fruit from your inventory and plant it in the hole. Make sure to press the A button to plant the fruit.

• Watering (Optional): While not required, watering your newly planted trees can speed up their growth. Water your tree, and watch it grow.

• Time and Patience: It takes a few days for a fruit tree to mature and start bearing fruit. Be patient, and keep an eye on your trees. Eventually, your efforts will pay off.

• Make Sure You Plant Your Tree: If you have the fruit, you can plant the fruit in your island. Make sure to plant your tree to keep expanding your fruit collection. Having all kinds of fruit will boost the profit that you can make from your island, and this is essential to become rich in Animal Crossing.
