'''Tom Nook''' ({{ja|たぬきち|Tanukichi}}, ''Tanukichi'') is a major character and shopkeeper in the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} series.
'''Tom Nook''' ({{ja|たぬきち|Tanukichi}}, ''Tanukichi'') is a major character and shopkeeper in the {{uv|Animal Crossing}} series.
==Origin==
Tom Nook is the central shopkeeper in the earlier ''Animal Crossing'' games, and is also the one who sells the [[Villager|player]] their house, and they must work for him to pay off the loan. In ''Animal Crossing: New Leaf'' this role is expanded on, and he now runs the real estate agency Nook's Homes, while his nephews [[Timmy & Tommy]] run his old store. His business has expanded even further in ''Animal Crossing: New Horizons'', where he now owns his own travel agency, Nook Inc., and sells an island getaway package to prospective travelers. He still manages the real estate and infrastructure of this tropical island, and he still sells a house to the player. His real estate business is likely what inspired his role in Villager's Final Smash.

[[File:SSB4 Villager Dream Home.jpg|thumb|Tom Nook and his sons appearing in {{forwiiu}} as part of [[Dream Home]].]]
Tom Nook briefly appears in the game's first reveal trailer from E3 2013, where he is shown looking down at {{SSB4|Villager}}'s dropped [[Smash invitation|''Smash'' invitation]] as it falls to the ground.
Tom Nook reappears as a trophy in both versions, and as a background character on Smashville. He also appears in an identical background role on [[Town and City]].


More notably, Tom Nook, along with his nephews [[Timmy & Tommy]], appears in {{SSB4|Villager}}'s [[Final Smash]], [[Dream Home]]. In that context, he is paid by the Villager to build a house around one or more opponents, which explodes upon completion. In this appearance, he wears his blue apron.

During the battle, Incineroar receives a sudden Final Smash and his FS Meter charges quickly, referencing Tom Nook's role as a mortgage broker in the ''Animal Crossing'' series where he racks up a hefty mortgage debt for the player.
