I made this list so you can look at it to find the requirements for the characters to move in the town. Most of the people will move in during the summer, not first spring. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Lyla STORE....Hearty <3 Shop SPECIAL..Lyla will NOT send you a letter when she opens her store. So you have to travel west of Flower Bud Square often to see if Lyla has move in! Many people have been trying to get Lyla without realizing she's there all along. How rude of her for not letting you know. REQUIREMENTS --> Attend Flower Festival --> Ship Moondrop Flowers, Pinkcat Flowers, Blue Mist Flowers, Very Berries, Blueberries, Yarns, Brooches, Rings and/or Good Clays. (It seems that the items Lyla is selling, are items she needs to open her Hearty Shop.) PROVEN NUMBERS --> 30 Moondrop Flowers, 9 Very Berries, 10 Good Clays. --> With above, Lyla moved in Summer 2. It doesn't matter which items you need to ship, just long as you ship when you see a item listed in the requirements. All items adds up in the value total, so when the value total meets the requirement... Lyla will come. Just keep shipping the items. It seems that you have to ship 10 good clays so the vases can show up in Hearty shop. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Tai & Tim STORE....Blacksmith SPECIAL..They will inform you that they're opening the store, so just check your mailbox. REQUIREMENTS --> Junk Ores, Copper Ores, Silver Ores, Gold Ores, Rare Ores, Moonstones (Other gems can be counted, but they're hard to find.) PROVEN NUMBERS --> 1 Junk Ore, 1 Copper Ore, 1 Silver Ore, 8 Gold Ore, 1 Rare Ore, and 1 Moonstone. --> With above, Tai and Tim moved in. Unlike Lyla, Tim and Tai will not wait until the Summer. They will move in a day after you meet their requirements. Best way to get them quickly is just mine like crazy in Moonlight Mine, and ship all ores you have. And they'll move in. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Ronald & Dan STORE....Orchard SPECIAL..Ronald will inform you with a letter that he's opening his store. And it seems that you can't buy any sodas from him in that store. I think he is selling his sodas in other different stores. REQUIREMENTS --> Attend Spring Horse Race festival --> 1 Fruit Tree. (Apple, Orange or Grape Tree) Just plant a tree anywhere. --> Ship the Very Berries, Blueberries, Apples, Oranges, or Grapes. It seems if you ship any kind of berries or fruits, he'll open his orchard. During the spring, you can keep shipping the very berries and he'll go open his work. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Gina & Dia STORE....Sanatorium SPECIAL..You can't buy anything from Sanatorium. It's same as the Clinic. They'll inform you with a letter, as well. REQUIREMENTS --> Ship 30 Herbs (It is total of all herbs, so it doesn't matter which) Wait until the Summer 1 or Summer 2. It is when they'll open their Sanatorium. Most people seems to believe that you have to get Martha's heart up to one, in order to get Gina and Dia. But in my case, they moved in regardless of Martha's heart meter. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Martha STORE....nothing, she'll move in the Clinic SPECIAL..She will not inform you or anything. Just check inside the Clinic to see if she's there. Also, she will make you the biggest rucksack if you get her hearts up to between two and three. REQUIREMENTS: --> Pass time --> Talk to Alex few times? To be honest, I'm not 100% sure about the requirements. It appears that it may be same as Maria where she'll move in after you visit a festival. Martha may move in after you pass some days. A few people believe that you have to get Alex's heart up to one to get her. That is not true since I didn't have Alex at one heart and yet Martha moved in. However, I did talk to Alex few times. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Saibara STORE....Atelier SPECIAL..The pots he's selling, will show up in Lyla's Hearty Shop, not in his own place.
