| ~ Nicole in "The DVD." |
Doctor Nicole Watterson (née Senicourt) is one of the three tritagonists (alongside Anais and Richard) of the Cartoon Network series The Amazing World of Gumball.
She's the mother of the titular Gumball and the matriarch of the Watterson Family, who works at the Rainbow factory. She is the most and maybe only person responsible in the family.
Due to her strict nature, Nicole occasionally acts antagonistic, but it's usually motivated by her love for her family.
She is voiced by British actress, voice actress, and singer, Teresa Gallagher, who also voices Penny Fitzgerald, Teri, Little Miss Daredevil, Little Miss Whoops and Little Miss Chatterbox from The Mr. Men Show.
Appearance[]
Nicole greatly resembles her son, Gumball, who is, like her, a cat, but is taller and slenderer than her son. She has light blue fur and is somewhere between Richard and Gumball in height. Her head is shaped similarly to Gumball's, except Nicole's whiskers are shorter than her son's, and she has visible eyelashes. The inside of her mouth is light pink, her tongue is pink, and her nose is pink.
Her usual outfit consists of a white collared shirt with an orange, yellow, and green button that symbolizes the Rainbow Factory, where she works. She wears a short, light gray skirt to go along with it.
In Season 2, her shirt is tucked in, her body is slimmer, and she gains wide hips just like Gumball. Her mouth and head are rounder and her whiskers are much shorter. Her eyes are oval-shaped.
In Season 3, Nicole's eyes are permanently round along with the rest of her family.
Personality[]
Nicole cares deeply for her family, so much that she would do anything to express her love for them. She is also very protective of her family, as seen in "The Ape." Since she is the only truly responsible member of the family, Nicole does most of, if not all the household chores, and besides, she works long hours at the Rainbow Factory just to put food on the table.
Unfortunately, Nicole also suffers from a tremendous amount of emotional stress because of her many duties. She is also quite a demanding mother, and sometimes has an extremely nasty temper that can turn her into a very scary person when upset. In fact, on one occasion, Gumball decides it'd be easier to face a giant T-rex than an angry Nicole. Despite all that, Nicole is still a good person, kindhearted, sweet, and has a softer and calm side at times, and she still loves her family very much.
Nicole can be quite stern when provoked, and occasionally vindictive, as was shown in the episode "The Ape," after Miss Simian called her and her family "losers." On top of this, she has also proven to be very resourceful and inventive, a trait she most likely passed on to her daughter Anais, who has demonstrated similar talents. Winning seems to be a necessity for her at times, possibly indicating that she is slightly obsessive. Though, despite her somewhat ruthless faults, she can accept defeat, acknowledge her mistakes, and even find humor in them. Nicole also doesn't like losing, as shown in "The Game."
Biography[]
Nicole grew up in a strict family that wants her to become the most successful person alive, although, their obsession with absolute perfectionism within Nicole causes her to always go through a lot of extreme measures to gain achievements that satisfy them, their decisions, desires, and even their actions affects her deeply, as all her life is nothing but being forced to study hard and get good grades at all cost.
One day, when her parents were driving her to the Karate championship tournament, they were in the middle of complaining about her exam since there was an "F" which stands for her gender as a female. Due to the traffic jam, and Nicole's father's ill temper, caused him to destroy the car with one slam, causing Nicole to run to the tournament for only 5-minutes, this is when she meets Richard, and they both fall in love with each other, Nicole later on left her family as they disapprove to let her date, Richard, as for Richard, he was kicked out of the house by his mother for unknown reasons.
Nicole and Richard both live together afterward and not so long later, Nicole gives birth to Gumball, adopts Darwin, and gives birth to Anais.
Abilities[]
Nicole is very athletic, and is fully capable of chasing her children across the neighborhood when they are in trouble, as shown in "The DVD." On one occasion, Gumball compared her to a ninja. In "The Remote," she displayed great skills in martial arts, that allowed her to defeat Richard and her sons, and jump between roofs. Also, in "The Fight," Nicole defeats Mr. Rex and destroys his house, and in "The Pizza," she defeats some apocalyptic Elmore citizens when they turn against her and her family.
When angry, she is significantly strong, enough to destroy a door, and can fight and defeat anyone, and completely scare people with her rage. In "The Egg," she can completely transform herself into a red demon-like being and eat any person. Along with this, Nicole can make people fear and do what she wants without a question. Like in "The Castle" and "The Limit," just one penance stare reduces her victims into a horrifying state. In "The Vacation," she can completely burn Richard's marshmallow by just looking at it. In "The Finale" and in "The Money," she can also transform into a hulking version of herself.
