Pekoe is a normal bear cub villager in the Animal Crossing series. She first appeared in Animal Crossing: City Folk and has appeared in all subsequent games. Her name comes from pekoe, a term used in tea leaf grading. The word pekoe can also refer to unopened leaf buds, hence her catchphrase, "bud."

In New Horizons, Pekoe has the nature hobby and may be found reading a book pertaining to an item she is studying, which can be either flowers, bugs, fish, or fossils.
