Her name isn't Joy and she's not even a nurse yet there are still retards who call all Pokemon Center Clerks "Nurse Joy", why is that?
>>58509043the anime was most people's first intro to pokemon
>>58509043Joy is more of a last name.
>>58509043Just like how French fries aren't actually French, sometimes people just call things by a name and it sticks. Not really that hard to understand with all due respect OP
She's effectively a nurse and even dresses like one. The Joy thing is dumb though, just something from the anime which stuck around with casuals.
Some professions have nicknames to refer to people or things with a reputation, IE: Bitchin' Betty/Bob for an aircraft Voice Warning System. I always figured that Joy was one of those nicknames. It wasn't that everyone who worked there was named Joy, it was that everyone called them Joy because they brought joy to a weary team.
>>58509124>58509124They all literally look the same you stupid pilot piece of shit, OBVIOUSLY they are all called Joy because they share their family surname.
The anime actually did establish that "Joy" is their last name.
>>58509043Doesn’t Bien equate to “good” in French? Which kinda sounds like Joy
>they took the joy out of the nursesMan, these games just get more and more soulless.
>>58509124No they're all named Joy. Joy is their last name and this has all been extensively covered by the anime. The game clerk was never Joy but people call her that because of the anime.
>>58509136There are multiple clerks you can battle in the game, the others have different names too though they all have Audino as their mega.On that note, even the anime has eschewed them all being called Joy. The one in the main cast in the current series is called Molly.
>>58509139What the fuck does this even mean? You're fucking retarded and didn't read the thread.
>>58509132>They all literally look the samenot in Legends Z-A
>>58509152That's not new, a Nurse Joy in the Gen 4 anime had two daughters named Marnie Joy and Paige Joy. Joy is the family name, so Molly's full name is Molly Joy.
>>58509167Are you sure that's not all an invention of the English dub?
>>58509177No, the Japanese version also states that Joy is their family name
>>58509043Why do they all look the same? Even with different skin colors they're basically still clones.Does the clerk/nurses just have really stromg genetics? Like if married her would my son look normal or look exactly like his mom? Would marrying her basically be suicide for your own genetic code?
>>58509185They gave them different faces and personalities too. Accounting for the artstyle they're effectively different women with similar builds wearing the same hairstyle and uniform.
>>58509219
>>58509148 >>58509132I'm aware of what the anime has to say on the matter.I believe that explanation to be stupid, especially when this family name would be transcontinental and occupy literally the same role across at least a hundred centers at this point.It makes more sense as a title and a dress code than an actual name.
>>58509219there is another color variation by the way
>>58509226why does this one look high?
Pretty sure joys were just a gag, that gets more absurd as more regions are added. Itake it as canon purely because I find it funny that one woma spawned this many kids and they also spawned even more like rabbits.
>>58509263Her Pokémon Center is a front for drug smuggling.
>>58509244>bonjourso the game takes place in france? it all makes sense now.
>>58509244The white one is BienThe nigger one is IlyanaNot sure about the asian and spic ones.
>>58509244Wife...
>>58509299It's a sequel to XY and it's all set within Lumiose City which was massively scaled up.
>>58509185Laziness, GF could use AI to just gen faces to give each nurse a different appearance
>>58509244>Nurse Dawn, Midday, Dusk and Midnight forms
>>58509244>>58509341Alright... which one gives the best handjobs...
>>58509043The source for Joy was the ashnime, which, despite being an official product of the franchise, most fans take as canon.
>>58509233I hate the ashnime but to be fair, the ashnime's point was to lampshade the fact that they all looked alike to reuse character designs.Both the staff and the fans took that way more seriously than anyone should.
>>58509368the high one
>>58509043everyone watched the anime, and the games started basing the nurse hairstyles after Joy's, it's natural people would still call her nurse joy
>>58509043>>58509219>>58509226>>58509244They are all BLACKED
>>58511804? What does that mean
>>58509043Brock literally told Ash that Joy was their family name tho
>>58509139I'm pretty sure the first named one was named Casey in gen 4 19 years ago anon
So is the dumb haircut a requirement?
>>58509516Yeah, that's the most logical explaination. I just wanted to see if I could actually work it to make sense today.
>>58509177It's not. But the idea that they're nurses is a dub invention, they're clearly doctors in the original.
>>58512253I'm going to be honest, them being nurses makes a bit more sense. Nurses are the ones who do most of the direct patient interaction and are responsible for coming up with the treatment plans for injuries.
Choose.
There are an absolute mountain of people who have Pokemons first season of anime as their foundational memory and define all future things they learn about Pokemon based on that. >>58509244The black one has a hot expression if you play battle music in photo mode. She looks like she's about to hit you but can't show it or she'll lose her job
>>58509043The older games were so dogshit at conveying their stories due to technical limitations most people used a shitty baby show as their source of information.
>>58509043>BienIs her first name Très?
Why the fuck would they need to be nurses when all they do is put your pokeballs inside some machine?
>>58512971Presumably it used to be harder and now they're too entrenched in their position to be replaced.
>>58512971The healing machine is just a quick abstraction for player convenience, assume there are times when Pokémon are brought in bad enough conditions that the nurses have to visit and tend to them individually.
>>58513013You literally get to use one yourself in the Blueberry Academy and it works just fine
>>58513016The SV MC is so amazing their Pokémon barely ever get a scratch.
>>58509139>t. retard that doesn't play the games
>>58509219>They gave them different personalitiesNo they didn't, you choose what expression to give them in the photo mode. They do have different face shapes (mouth, eyes) but they all talk the same
>>58513243It can be inferred from the fact the white clerk and the black clerk make different expressions (white one looks like she's mildly annoyed, but playfully so, black one looks like she's two seconds from punching you in the face) that they have different personalities. This is 4chan so you're probably going to call that cope or some dogshit, but you can literally see in >>58509219 that the two of them are making meaningfully different reactions to the same thing, as both the white and black clerks reactions there are to the battle music.They only don't speak to you differently because they're doing a customer service job. The one time one of them does talk to you about something else, during a late game side quest, she acts cuter than her usual customer service mode.
>>58509067They are french though, do not believe the belgian lies
>>58509067they're called french fries because they're frenched then fried
