Ivor is a good person, but he isn't always blessed with good luck. He never forgets a friendly gesture, and likes to pay his debts.

Voiced by Unknown

When you first meet him, he will be instead known as Ivor Begger. He will visit your garden, hoping you will help him get back on his feet. Doing so will turn him into Ivor Bargain, and open his shop.

In Trouble in Paradise, Ivor can no longer be found anywhere in town or in your garden. His stock is now sold at Costalot's Store. You can find out where Ivor went by unlocking the wishing well. Someone has pushed Ivor down it, and he will now throw items he has found at the bottom up in exchange for chocolate coins.

Gameplay

Starting from level 9, your garden may be visited by a beggar named Ivor. He won't do much, but you can talk to him or gift him chocolate coins. You can also water him and hit him with your shovel like other NPCs, though it is not recommended to hit him as he will leave for awhile. Instead, you should help him out by giving him the chocolate coins he asks for.

Once you have given him 1,000 chocolate coins, Ivor will leave the garden permanently. He will flip his mask around, and open Ivor Bargain, a brand new shop with exclusive items. Most of these items have special effects, and can help you in your garden.

Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise

In Trouble in Paradise, Ivor will no longer appear as a beggar, nor will he ever open his shop. All of the items previously carried by Ivor are now carried in Costolot's Store.

Ivor has not been entirely removed from the game however. Once you have viewed the credits (unlocked by unblocking all blocked piñata), you will unlock the Wishing Well. Place it in your garden, and discover that Ivor is trapped at the bottom. Toss down some coins for him, and he will throw back up various items and coins. Tossing down at least 1,000 chocolate coins will make it more likely that he will throw back up even more money than you sent down. Placing a Lantern 'o' Loot next to the well will increase the amount of coins he gives.

If you toss down 9,999 chocolate coins at once, Ivor will toss up the amber gem. This is a vital item needed to revive your very own Choclodocus. Only one amber exists per save file, even if you gift him another 9,999 chocolate coins in a new garden, you will never receive a second amber.

Ivor cannot be freed from the well, and is never seen in person.

Leafos Gossip

  • "Ivor had a run of bad luck at the Piñata races. But I'd trust him with my money, if I had any." (Classic only)
  • "I haven't seen Ivor the trader for ages. What could have happened to him?" (TIP only)

Quotes

Trivia

  • Ivor lost all his money and became a beggar due to poor luck gambling at piñata races. It is likely these races are similar to the mini-game added in Trouble in Paradise, The Great Piñata Paperchase.
  • Due to his stock being found at Costolot's Store in Trouble in Paradise, it is speculated by some fans that Lottie may have been the person to push Ivor down the Wishing Well. This is not confirmed.
