Biology

Physiology

Chansey in the Anime

Chansey is an Egg Pokémon. She has three strands of hair sticking out on each side. Chansey is entirely light pink, except for its egg and tips of her "Hair". She has a major resemblance to an axolotl, even carrying eggs.

Mood

Chansey is an extremely brave and kind Pokémon and whatever her mood is, she's always smiling. She is known to bring anyone happiness.

Natural abilities

Chansey can either have the ability Natural Cure or the ability Serene Grace. Natural Cure causes all of Chansey's status effects to be cured when Chansey is switched out. Serene Grace doubles the chances that secondary effects happen. Chanseys are supposed to bring happiness and are seen carrying a stone shaped egg and shares her with injured Pokémon. Chansey (and her evolutionary line) also happens to have more items associated with it than any other Pokémon: the Lucky Punch, the Lucky Incense, the Lucky Egg, and the aforementioned Oval Stone.

Evolution

Chansey is the evolved form of Happiny, by leveling up Happiny while it holds Oval Stone during the day. Chansey evolves into Blissey when leveled up with max Friendship.

Trivia

Chansey shares the same species as Exeggcute.
Chansey and her pre-evolution, Happiny, have the worst Attack and Defense stat at only 5.

Etymology

Chansey's name comes from the Japanese word "chan" which means miss or misses and the suffix -y, which usually means an adjective. She could also be based off of the word "chancy" due to her low appearance rate in-game.

Origin

Chansey's body slightly resembles an egg, most specifically, a tree swallow egg. Her physical appearance also shows some similarities to the axolotl(they have pink ruffles on the sides of their heads, they lay eggs and are pink). Her shiny may be based off of a chicken egg due to her tan color. Her green coloring could also be a reference to a spoiled egg or Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham.
