Personality
Pietro has a Smug behavior type, however do not let that mislead you. Pietro is not smug in the sense that he feels superior to everyone, more in the sense that he’s very self-confident. When meeting Pietro for the first time, you’ll find that he’s extremely polite and well mannered. While Smug Villagers occasionally suffer from a case of an inflated ego, they mean well. Because of this, Pietro gets along well with Lazy, Normal, Peppy, and Snooty villagers quite well. However, he will have trouble with those who are Cranky.
Appearance
Without a doubt, Pietro is one of the more unique looking villagers in the series. Although he is a sheep villager, his multi-colour facepaint is unique and helps him stand out amongst other sheep. His face is painted to resemble a clown’s makeup, with blue horns and rainbow fur. His outfit, however, changes appearance from New Leaf to New Horizons.
How to get Pietro in New Horizons
Getting a villager you want in New Horizons is particularly tricky as there is only one surefire way to do so, the rest is up to luck. There are two primary methods of getting Pietro in your village; the first is using Nook Miles to fly to an island and see if he is there. Keep in mind if you do this you’ll have to have an open plot available. The second method is to wait and see if he’ll appear at your campsite. Either way both methods are luck based, so it’s completely up to chance.
Role of Pietro in New Leaf
Pietro is a villager in New Leaf who, again, will appear randomly by chance and offers you the opportunity to invite him to stay in your town. New Leaf was his first appearance in the Animal Crossing games.
Amiibo
A guaranteed way to get Pietro on your island is to use his Amiibo card. Simply scan it with your Switch at the Town Hall. Keep in mind in order to do this you need to have both the Town Hall and Campsite constructed. Once you’ve invited him to your campsite, you simply need to do this three times and he’ll be part of your island!
