'''Flags''' appear in every main game in the series (excluding the original {{DnM}}), and can be altered to display a custom [[design]]. They primarily serve as an emblem representing the town, though other kinds of flags appear as well.

==In the games== 

=== {{PG}}, and {{DnMe+}} ===
In {{PG}}, and {{DnMe+}} a plain white flag is flown near the dock on [[Animal Island]]. The flag's design can be changed by simply interacting with the flagpole.

=== {{WW}} ===
A flag with a turtle-shell design is flown next to the [[Town Gate]]. The design can be changed by speaking to [[Booker]] in the Town Gate and selecting the option to 'Change flag.' The player has the option of outright replacing the design with a new one, or swapping a custom design in exchange for the one used for the flag.

=== {{CF}} ===
A flag with a tree design appears outside of the Town Gate and is also displayed on top of the [[New Year's Eve]] countdown board. As with {{WW|short}}, the design can be changed by speaking to [[Booker]] in the Town Gate and selecting the option to 'Change flag.' The player has the option of outright replacing the design with a new one, or swapping a custom design in exchange for the one used for the flag. 

After the player fully pays off their [[mortgage]] [[Tom Nook]] will gift them a personal flag outside of their [[house]], which initially bears Tom Nook's leaf sigil in a color matching their roof [[paint]]. The flag can be changed by selecting the option from the telephone in the [[attic]] of their house.

A special flag design in the image of [[Tortimer]]'s face was [[Distributed items|distributed]] to players.

=== {{NL}} ===
The town's flag is flown outside of the [[Town Hall]] and on the platform of the [[Train Station]]. The town's flag may also appear on the large screen in [[Club LOL]] during [[DJ K.K.]]'s weeknight sets, and in the sky as fireworks during the [[Fireworks Show]] and [[Countdown]]. The design can be changed by speaking to [[Isabelle]] in the [[Town Hall]] and selecting the 'Town flag' option. [[Kapp'n]]'s boat flies the flag of [[Tortimer Island]], the design of which cannot be altered.

A special flag design in the image of a pine tree can be obtained from the official Japanese Nintendo [[Dream Suite|Dream Town]]. Additionally, two of the default designs are an alternative rose flag and a stag-beetle flag.

=== {{NH}} ===
The island's flag is flown outside of the [[Airport]] and depicts the Nook Inc. logo. After upgrading the [[Resident Services]] tent into a building, a flag will also be flown in the surrounding plaza. From this point the flag's design can be changed by speaking to [[Isabelle]] and selecting the 'Change the island flag' option.
