Giovanni is a bird introduced in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp. He is one of the three proprietors of OK Motors, a camper customization store, along with Beppe and Carlo. He is the leader of the trio.

The three proprietors of OK Motors have Italian given names which also double as puns related to motor vehicles. Giovanni's name likely derives from "van."

Characteristics

Appearance

Like Beppe and Carlo, Giovanni is a black bird. He has a big head slightly shaped like an oval, big gray eyebrows, big round eyes with white irises and small black pupils, and a tuft of hair sticking out on top of his head. His beak and legs are yellow, and his nose is part of his beak's upper part. He is shorter than Beppe and Carlo.

Personality

Giovanni is friendly to anyone with campers. He keeps OK Motors running smoothly and always has a nugget of earthy wisdom to dispense to his customers.

Appearances

In Pocket Camp

In Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Giovanni directly handles customization and interior expansion requests for the player's camper. OK Motors is a family-run business that Giovanni inherited from his father. Carlo explains that Giovanni is the boss of OK Motors, even though he isn't the oldest of the employees. He also describes Carlo as competent at his job, and as a person who never throws anything out.

In New Horizons

Although Giovanni doesn't appear in Animal Crossing: New Horizons in person, his likeness does appear on the Brake Tapper furniture item as one of the faces that flash on the screen. His is the only face that can be lined three in a row if the item is interacted with.
