Dr. Shrunk, also known as simply Shrunk, is an axolotl who first appears in Animal Crossing: Wild World. He appears in all subsequent games except Pocket Camp, and he also makes a cameo in 🎬 Gekijōban Doubutsu no Mori. He is a comedian who, prior to New Horizons, allows the player to learn emotions based on his jokes. His English name likely refers to shrink, a slang word for a psychologist, relating to his Dr. title.
