Is there a way to have two islands on one switch?

No, you cannot have two separate Animal Crossing: New Horizons islands on a single Nintendo Switch console; the game is hard-coded for only one island per system, with all user profiles on that Switch sharing that one island. To have a second island, you need a second Nintendo Switch console, as the save data is tied to the system itself, not the game cartridge or digital copy.

What is the rarest villager to get in ACNH?

There isn't one single "rarest" villager, but rarity in Animal Crossing: New Horizons depends on factors like species size (cats/bears are technically rarer to find specific ones due to more options) and popularity, with Raymond (smug cat) and new villagers like Sasha often cited as very sought-after and hard to get without Amiibo, while Sanrio villagers are rarest as they're Amiibo-exclusive and untradeable in-game. Overall, Raymond (smug cat), Marshal (smug squirrel), and the new villagers from the 2.0 update (like Sasha) are extremely popular and thus "rare" in practice due to high demand.
