Pollux in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Many special characters regularly appear on player islands in Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Among them, you will find in particular Gulliver or Djason, but also Pollux, a rather special character.
Pollux is a Castor, which you will easily recognize if he comes to your island, thanks to his backwards cap and his yellow lock. He is fish lover, and will pass on your island once a week, to buy all your fish at one 1,5x more expensive than Méli et Mélo, just like Djason does for your insects. However, before you can sell your fish to him, you will be submitted to a test : you will have to catch 5 fish in a row without missing a single one! These tests can vary, and at each encounter you will have to show Pollix that you are a good fisherman before you can sell your fish to him!
But that's not all, since it is also the character in charge fishing tournaments ! The first tournament takes place on April 11, and the format is a little different from previous games: you will have 3 minutes for catch as many fish as possible, and therefore win a max points ! You can repeat as many times as you want to accumulate points and rewards, but each participation will cost you 500 bells.
