Overview

Over the years there have been a variety of games that have featured nurses, and perhaps one of the most notable examples are the Pokemon Nurses from the Pokémon (Franchise) games. These nurses can be found in every Pokémon Center (Location) in the in-game world and heal the player's Pokémon (Concept) free of charge. Somewhat predictably nurses are controllable units in the management game Theme Hospital (Game), and a number of characters in the Trauma Center (Franchise) games are nurses as well. In Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 the character Sayoko Uehara (Character) is a nurse that works at the same hospital that the player may work at. She is the character representing the Devil Arcana in the game and will often flirt with the protagonist when they are alone. As well as working in a practical capacity nurses can often be sexualised in video games and other entertainment, for example Anesthesia (Character) in sexually-charged fighting franchise Rumble Roses (Franchise) or the various nurses in the pornographic Dengeki Nurse (Franchise) games. The undead Alchemilla Nurses (Concept) have become a highly iconic enemy in the Silent Hill (Franchise) games, often skirting a disturbing line between overtly sexual and aggressively grotesque. Many different versions of these nurses have existed over the course of the games.
