But also take note that the Franklin Badge was featured much more prominently in Mother 3 in Japan. Add that to Sakurai wanting to ditch Ness, and Lucas apparently becoming much more popular in Japan than Ness ever was, and you may see where things are going.

That's what gets to me. The fact that the two most likely AC characters, Tom Nook, K.K. Slider and Tortimer, both appear in the stage. The only possible thing now would be, again, some kind of tag-team/swap out (ala PT) thing involving some of the most popular villagers, which is unlikely, or just an "Animal Crosser" who uses the net/fishing rod/shovel etc etc. However, the fact that Mr. Resetti shows up nowhere in the stage says to me that he'll 100% be an assist trophy.
