Here you go.

The mentioning of Switzerland is a recuring plot device and small running gag in The Amazing World of Gumball. It is occasionally mentioned on the side humorously or used to advance the plot.

Christmas (Season 2 Episode 15):
Gumball, Anais, and Darwin run away after Nicole tells them that Santa Claus isn't real. She then goes searching them while talking to herself, mentioning that lots of things, including Switzerland, isn't real.


 * Nicole : Come on, kids, come home! There's plenty of stuff that doesn't exist! The tooth fairy, Bigfoot, Switzerland...

The Puppy (Season 3 Episode 5):
To return the turtle, Richard tries to locate the Awesome Store using a map of Switzerland.


 * Anais : That's a map of Switzerland.
 * Richard : Exactly!
 * Gumball : All right, let's take the turtle there.
 * Richard : To Switzerland?

The Vacation (Season 3 Episode 10):
After the car breaks down, Nicole uses a map of Switzerland to find the closest garage to get the car fixed.



The Wicked (Season 4 Episode 18):
Darwin tries to talk with Margaret Robinson in her own language, but to her it only comes across as nonsensical.


 * Darwin : Three times did the cheese move sideways to Switzerland by radio, but she never licked that parking permit.

The Possession (Season 6 Episode 31):
While on their way to the Awesome Store to inquire about the waranty of the fridge, Nicole and Granny Jojo argue, which includes a sarcastic remark mentioning Switzerland.
 * Nicole : [closes window] It's too cold.
 * Granny Jojo : [opens window] I need fresh air!
 * Nicole : [closes window] Move to Switzerland.

The Silence (Season 6 Episode 33):
After Darwin went missing The Watterson try to retrace his steps with Gumball trying to think like Darwin.


 * Gumball : Of course! An abandoned shoe! That would've made him think of soles. [starts pacing while he thinks] And what music do you need soul for? That's right! Blues music! But Darwin doesn't like blues. He likes yodeling! And where does yodeling come from? Switzerland! And what are the Swiss famous for? Cheese! And Swiss cheese is full of holes. And what else has holes in it? Plots of bad TV shows that use hack writing to solve an important bit of action! And where do these shows belong? THE DUMP!!

Background
It is unknown what the background or reason for the frequent mention of Switzerland in the show is or how the running gag came to be.
