Animal Crossing

Del is a Cranky Alligator in the Animal Crossing series. He first appeared in Doubutsu no Mori e+ and has appeared in all subsequent games except Animal Crossing: Wild World. He is the only Cranky Alligator the series.

Del's two-toned physical appearance is reminiscent of a ship's brightly colored hull. His English and Japanese names both refer to famous battleships: Del may be an abbreviation of "Delaware," the name of multiple ships in the U.S. Navy, while his Japanese name refers to the Japanese battleship Yamato. Del's naval theme is also present in his home's decor, which resembles the inside of a sea vessel. His Japanese favorite saying is similar to Sylvana's English favorite saying in Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo.

In New Horizons, Del has the fitness hobby and will wear sporty shades and lift heavy dumbbells while exercising.

Appearance

Del is a navy blue alligator with the bottom portion of his jaws and abdomen a rich red. He has black spots resembling gun ports surrounding his cheeks, and half-open eyes, giving him a tired or angry look. Because of the navy-and-red design of his head, he visually resembles a Japanese battleship, such as the Yamato he is named after. In New Horizons, he is given lines across his legs and tail.
