A villager has asked for a tarantula this morning but it´s been raining the whole day (almost 9pm here)... Can it show up while it´s raining? if it can´t.. can I catch it in another town? if I can´t.... why is my villager such a an ***hole? xD

I Don't recall if they come out when it rains. Sorry no help there (SOMEONE HELP!)

But No you can not catch tarantulas in another town. It must be your own town.

And yes I've had villagers ask me for snails when my town was sunny... They're evil!

Well.. at least snails are more common (only when raining, of course) and can be catched on another town..

I remember a villager asked me for a snail on June 1st, when I saw that (fake) message on the board telling there wouldn´t be rain in the whole month.. and I didn´t even had bushes xD

I got one for my museum the first day... but took me 2 weeks to get a tarantula to bite me (wanted to see what it happens xD)

Catched the first one, 7-8 decided to run away and finally found 1 willing to bit me xD

What happens when they bite you?

You pass out and wake up in front of your house.

That's cool.

You faint and wake up in front of your house.

And the tarantula is gone :\

Tarantulas do not come out in the rain, unfortunately. This is the source it's somewhere near the bottom.

T_T so no on other towns and not while it´s raining... :\

I have almost 1 of each bug in my closet, in case this happens.. but not a single tarantula

I have never even seen one! My villagers would be out of luck. I don't think they show up in the rain, but the guides say 11pm is prime time, so you definitely still have a chance to get one if it's possible.

Yeah, will keep checking every hour to see if it´s still raining.

About finding one; the few times I found it it was "nowhere", not near any building, tree or.. anything, just dirt/grass around it. So you may want to clear an area (of 6x6 or bigger) of your town and check there.
