When I bring a basket of fruits to Dr. Shrunk to teach me an emotion/animation, he makes a comment that he will have to teach me a "really good joke" that day compensate me for the many fruits that I brought.

I am curious to know if there is actually a game mechanic which restricts which emotions can be taught, or if that conversation is just a bit of fluff. Are there any emotions that cannot be taught by giving Dr. Shrunk a single fruit, or can they all be unlocked by bringing him a single fruit each day?

    I have no idea how we'd actually verify an answer to this... How do you differentiate a "really good" emote from one that isn't? The joke book doesn't have different headings or anything for emotions.

    @FAE I suppose the easiest way to verify would be through experience -- for example, is it possible to obtain every emotion by giving Dr. Shrunk a single fruit everyday? I'll edit the question a bit, I think I can phrase that problem better. Commented Jul 1, 2013 at 22:31

    He tells me the "really good joke" line even though I'm giving him cherries (my town fruit)...

    I actually made a mistake and misclicked giving him 10,000 bells worth of turnips and he ate it just the same!

Actually, there are no emotions that are unlocked by giving Dr. Shrunk multiple fruit in a day. You need to go to him each day with any fruit of your choice to receive a new emotion. I hope this helped!

    and also, once you've learned all his "jokes," he just reruns his previous jokes. What a waste of a perfect peach Facepalm Commented Oct 15, 2013 at 22:34
