Swimming and Diving - How to Swim and Dive
While diving into the ocean, there's a chance for you to catch a Scallop. Pascal won't appear otherwise!
After catching a scallop, Pascal will appear and ask to trade with you for the scallop!

Pascal is a special character who shows up the first time you catch scallops for the day.
Reminder that Pascal only shows up once per day per player character, so if you have another character on the island, you can use them to get more DIY recipes or pearls!
Pascal is tied to the Summer Update Wave 1. Make sure that your game is updated to that version or later!
While he generally appears when you catch your first scallop of the day, he won't show up if your pockets are full and have to swap out your catch!
After appearing, Pascal will ask you for the Scallop you found. If you agree to trade, Pascal will give you items!
Trade with Pascal every chance you get to complete your Mermaid Series Furniture collection!
Pearls are required to craft Mermaid items. They can be found on the ocean floor by diving, though they're very rare. Pascal also offers to give you Pearls in exchange for Scallops.
Pascal will often leave you a nugget of wisdom to think and ponder about after interacting with him leaving you more baffled than you were before you met the enlightened otter.

Pascal is a red otter who was first introduced in Animal Crossing: Wild World. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, he shows up every time you catch a scallop to trade Mermaid items and pearls with you!
All Visiting Special Characters
I have no trouble getting Pascal on my own island, no matter where I swim he turns up after the first scallop, apart from his second visit when he made me find 5 before showing up. However I have not managed to find him or any scallops on mystery islands. Am I just being unlucky, has anyone found either on a mystery island tour?

I started off only being able to get Pascal at the back of my island, but for the last two weeks he shows up anywhere after I find my first scallop. They may have fixed this issue with the last update.
