In ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere To Go!]]'', Brock received Happiny's {{pkmn|Egg}} as a prize for winning the [[Pokémon Dress-Up Contest]], which he entered with his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} {{pkmn|cosplay|dressed up}} as a {{p|Politoed}}. He was overjoyed to take care of the Egg, as shown in [[DP034|the next episode]] when he rubbed his cheek against it affectionately.

In ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'', while traveling on [[Sinnoh Route 206|Cycling Road]], the Egg began to glow. After taking it to a [[Pokémon Center]] and receiving assistance from [[Nurse Joy]], the Egg hatched into Happiny. Soon after birth, she began crying for a stone to hold as a fake Egg. Brock found a white stone and polished it into an [[Oval Stone]] for her. {{TRT}} snatched Happiny away before he could give the stone to her. Eventually, Happiny was returned to Brock and received her "Egg". Immediately after, she offered it back to Brock as a sign of [[friendship]]. He gave it back to her and then {{pkmn2|caught}} her in a {{i|Poké Ball}}.

In ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'', Happiny learned how to use Secret Power in order to save {{OBP|Autumn|DP062}} and {{p|Miltank|Ilta}} from a group of Beedrill. She also used Secret Power later on in the episode to put Team Rocket to sleep so that Brock and Autumn could get away.

Brock was going to use Happiny in her first battle against [[Marilyn]]'s {{p|Shellder}} in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]''. However, right before the battle started, Team Rocket interrupted and tried to steal Marilyn's other Pokémon. Before they could succeed, Happiny was able to send them flying with her powerful Pound attack.

In ''[[DP142|Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!]]'', Happiny came out to battle against a mischievous {{p|Togepi}}, as she was immune to her {{m|Attract}} due to both of them being female. Using Pound, she was able to snap the others out of their [[infatuation]] and proceeded to keep the Togepi busy until she got tired and left.

In ''[[DP173|Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', Happiny was used in her first battle by Brock, where she participated in a training round against [[Narissa]]'s {{p|Ditto}} One and Ditto Two. Both Ditto {{m|Transform|Transformed}} into Happiny and used Pound, pushing Happiny back. She retaliated with a Pound of her own, which sent the Transform Pokémon flying into the nearby forest. The battle was called off.

In ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]'', a group of {{p|Tentacruel}} attacked the boat that {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were taking back to [[Twinleaf Town]]. Their {{m|Poison Sting}} attack caused many of the baby Pokémon onboard to become poisoned. Despite all that Brock and the others were doing to help, the Pokémon were not getting any better. After seeing this, Happiny [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Chansey}} in order to help the baby Pokémon. She was able to heal {{p|Pichu}} and the other baby Pokémon of the {{status|poison}} with her newly learned {{m|Soft-Boiled}}.

Like most [[baby Pokémon]], Happiny became very attached to her {{pkmn|Trainer}} very quickly. She would become upset whenever she was taken out of Brock's care, and she refused to cooperate with Team Rocket completely. Unlike {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}}, however, she did not cry or fuss; she actually fought back against {{cat|Team Rocket's Pokémon}} after Brock had been hurt.

Happiny has a cheerful personality, and is playful and energetic. Rather than walking, she was usually held in Brock's arms, much like {{an|Misty}} did with her {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. She was occasionally seen sleeping or playing with {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. Sometimes, she was seen riding on {{AP|Pikachu}}'s back, as seen in ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]'' and ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''.

Happiny had extraordinary strength for a baby Pokémon. Examples of this appeared in ''[[DP057|Bibarel Gnaws Best!]]'', where she carried many heavy boulders, and in ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]'' and ''[[DP073|Crossing Paths]]'', where she lifted and threw large boulders. She saved Team Rocket, Dawn, and their Pokémon from falling in ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', and saved Brock and {{OBP|Autumn|DP062}} from falling off a bridge by hurling them high through the air to the other side of it in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''. She was also seen walking in [[Canalave City]] while lifting [[Ash's Grotle]]—who was tired due to its new large size after evolving—with one arm in ''[[DP103|Jumping Rocket Ship!]]''. She was also able to stop {{an|Dawn}}'s Piloswine from rampaging in ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'' with her strength. Later, in ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', when {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} tossed Dawn up into the air, Happiny caught her just in time. It is unknown if she has retained her unusual strength following her evolutions, but she was shown to be a competent conventional battler as a Blissey.

The only times where her strength was not enough were in ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', where she failed to pull off a tight manhole cover, in ''[[DP087|The Psyduck Stops Here!]]'', where she tried to lift a massive boulder but collapsed under the weight, and in ''[[DP158|Regaining the Home Advantage!]]'', where she attempted to stop a rampaging {{p|Metagross}} but was flung backwards. Any other time, she successfully brought out her special and uncommon power.
