I actually got the 1% Gold Island as it is called AKA Scorpion island last night. I had enough for 3 nook miles tickets. The first island was bad full of fruit. Second island was the scorpion island gold island as you will call it. This is considered the most rarest mystery island in all of the mystery islands. I time traveled a couple of weeks to May and I am in the Northern Hem. So I got there and was like great its 8PM and it has a cliff no bugs. As I get closer I see a ton and I mean like 8 scorpions in a group. I realize there is just that one square/rectangular ledge. As I walk around the island to try to catch the scorpions I notice a big pond in the middle of the island and in the middle of the pond is a tiny square island with one rock on it. I could not for the life of me figure out how to get to it. So I looked it up and found out how on another article. Keep in mind you will only get this island if you have a ladder and a pole. As you need them both to get to the tiny island in the middle of the big pond. What you do is you climb up the cliff and then climb down it on the side closest to the tiny island. Then you will realize there is streched out portion of island that you couldn't see until you got on it by climbing down off the cliff. You then pole over to the island with the rock and hit it 8 times and you will get 8 golden nuggets. I wasn't able to get all the scorpions even though I had the biggest pockets, my net broke and I had no more miles to buy one off of the dodo bird. Plus this island only had palm trees. Hope that helps.
