The nurses that operates the Pokémon Centers are usually not known to be named, except in the anime, in which the nurses are all named [[Nurse Joy|Joy]]. Occasionally, nurses with specific names do appear, such as [[Teala]], and a nurse named '''Casey''' (Japanese: '''メディ''' ''Medi'') who participates in {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.

A Pokémon Center Nurse operates every Pokémon Center in the [[Pokémon games]], usually standing behind the counter and beside a machine which is able to heal the [[player]]'s Pokémon to full health. The nurses are not known to be named and there is no evidence to support that they are related, unlike their [[Nurse Joy|anime counterpart]]. Since many characters in-game feature the same overworld sprites (the nurses included) it is impossible to tell whether or not these nurses all look the same.

In {{game|Yellow}}, the Nurse appears under a different overworld sprite. She is more similar to the {{pkmn|anime}}'s Joy than in other Generation I games, and is even accompanied by {{p|Chansey}} in every center. Furthermore, an [http://web.archive.org/web/19971016215515/http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/POKEMON/NEWS/NEWS.HTM old news page] from [[Game Freak]] on Pokémon Yellow suggests that her name is Joy (ジョーイ)—the same as in the anime. This seems to apply only to Yellow, as many aspects of Yellow are based on the anime.

In [[Generation II]], the Nurse in [[Fuchsia City]] has green hair. Interestingly, there are multiple green-haired nurses on the second floor of all Generation II Pokémon Centers.

A nurse named [[Teala]] appears in every Pokémon Center of [[Generation III]] (second floor) and [[Generation IV]] (basement), usually giving information about Wireless Communication to the player. She manages the items the player obtains through [[Mystery Gift]] in Generation III.

Pokémon Center Nurses made a couple of appearances during the [[Pokémon Origins]] mini-series, serving the same role as in the games. The first one was seen in [[Viridian City]] in ''[[PO01|File 1 - Red]]'', while another one appeared in [[Lavender Town]] in ''[[PO02|File 2 - Cubone]]''. Unlike in most other media, these nurses were different from each other and had different voices as well.

 

A {{TCG|Supporter card}} called {{TCG ID|Expedition|Pokémon Nurse|145}} appears in the {{TCG|Expedition Base Set}}. The art on this card slightly resembles [[Nurse Joy|Joy]] from the anime, but has blue hair. The nurse appearing on the card also seems to have been based on the games' nurse, since the TCG is based on the games, rather than the anime.
