Yes, if you get an Action Replay DS, you can modify the residents.

HOWEVER, they will keep the old resident's attitude and catchphrase, also their sex., but the names, and their Avatars will be changed to what you want.

uhhh, nope. But seriously, friend codes. Now.

No idea how to do it...

Probably just have to find someone who's willing to play with ya town to do it.

Strange that, I remember having that same urge with the Gamecube one... I think I was trying to get and keep a penguin in my town

you can visit towns via wifi with people who have your wifi freinds code
this also requires a nintendo WiFi addapter for your PC if you dont have a very strong wifi in your area it works better with the nintendo wifi addapter


theirs also the Action Replay max but i wouldnt recomend it cause of the so many codes in it but if you do
do the codes after Tom Nook lets you go after finishin ya job
to do the Bell code and the resident code

Ice. I still have my copy of the game

If ya want some of the stuff I have I can give it to ya.

Especially the special made flag/tag I did for ya.
