Phineas (パロンチーノ, Parochīno, Palochino) is a sea lion who only appears in Animal Crossing: City Folk. He can be found in the City at anytime of the day in reasonable weather conditions (sunny or overcast/cloudy). Phineas has white, bushy eyebrows and wears a white shirt, blue coat, orange vest, black trousers, and a tophat. He gives the player special hand-held items that the player cannot get anywhere else, for no purpose other than for joy and for free. He has been known to appear in a player's city for days in a row, or not at all for weeks.

As it says in Animal Crossing: City Folk's game guide, this is Phineas's description:

Appearances

Animal Crossing: City Folk

Phineas was introduced in City Folk, in which he will randomly appear in the City giving out free gifts, being a choice of either an easily poppable balloon, an indestructable Bunny Balloon, a pinwheel that spins while running, or a Bubble Wand, which can be used to blow bubbles.

The player can only receive one gift per day. The balloons, bunny balloons, and pinwheels come in a variety of colors, such as orange, blue, green, red, pink, yellow, and purple. Balloons will fly away if the player trips and falls. If a pinwheel is brought into the Town Hall when Phyllis is working, it will occasionally disappear from the player's pockets and she will be using it in the back of the room.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Phineas returns in New Leaf where he becomes a scout. He now gives Badges to the player for doing stuff such as catching fish and hunting for bugs.

Trivia

• Some cranky villagers believe Phineas is K.K. Slider's day job.
• If a player Time Travels, Phineas will not appear for one week or more from the day the player time travelled.
• If the player gets closer to Phineas' cart, the music in the background will start to sound even cheerier, and if the player strays away from his cart, the music will become back to normal.
• Phineas is never outside when it is raining.
