12. Distracted
The distracted emote features a player attempting to catch a butterfly with some chopsticks. Essentially you’re showing off how little attention you’re playing to the game. The potential for using this to infuriate other players that you best in firefights must be obvious. This emote never made its way into the actual shop, it only exists in the code for some reason.
13. Hula
Hula appeared in the item shop very briefly and quite a while ago. Overall, it has only been on sale for five days total. This isn’t a particularly special emote, so it might be out of circulation purely from a lack of popularity. Your character does a little dance like they’re using a hula hoop. This one isn’t really a testament to how long you’ve been playing the game like some of the others. It more just shows that you buy random things from the item shop a lot.

14. Robot
The Robot is another early Fortnite emote. You can tell it must be a relatively early one since it is just a normal dance. This one is just doing the robot. What makes it rare is both its age and when it was unlocked. You got your hands on this emote at tier 95 of the Season 3 Battle Pass. There weren’t that many players back then, on top of that you had to pretty much finish the Battle Pass to unlock it. This has made the robot one of the rarest Fortnite dance emotes.

15. Chicken
Chicken is an emote that could confuse some sections of the Fortnite player base. While it is someone doing a chicken impression, it is a bizarre impression. This is because it is the chicken dance from Arrested Development, a long-running gag about being unable to accurately do a chicken impression. The crossover between Fortnite fans and fans of a short-lived early 2000s sitcom isn’t all that large, so this emote isn’t the most popular. This is likely why it is so rare, and it hasn’t been back to the item shop all that much.
