Chansey (Japanese: ラッキー Lucky) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Happiny when leveled up while holding an Oval Stone during the day and evolves into Blissey when leveled up with high friendship.

(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)

Biology

Chansey is a pink, ovoid Pokémon with stubby arms and dark pink feet. It has tiny eyes and three hair-like growths on each side of its head. The tufts of hair have dark pink tips. On the center of its belly is a dark pink pouch that contains a single white egg. The egg is said to be very nutritious and it lays several new ones every day. Finally, it has a short tail. Chansey is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

A kindhearted Pokémon, Chansey will share its eggs with injured people and Pokémon. However, Chansey will never share its egg to those with evil hearts. The eggs become more delicious if Chansey is raised with love and care. Chansey's egg is used as a high-class cooking ingredient due to the nutrition it has. As a result, Chansey have been referred to as doctors' doubles because of its eggs. Due to its egg being over-harvested, Chansey is extremely rare in the wild and is said to bring good luck and happiness to those who manage to catch it. Fleeing from those seeking its egg has made this once-slow species much quicker on its feet than in the past. It is more commonly found in urban settings. Chansey is the only known Pokémon capable of using the Lucky Punch item. In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, if the player is injured, any nearby Chansey will come to check them out, and then flee when they're fully healed. They don't actually heal the player, however.

Chansey and its evolutionary relatives are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Soft-Boiled by leveling up.

Evolution

Chansey evolves from Happiny and evolves into Blissey.

Sun The eggs laid by Chansey are rich in nutrients and a favorite food of many Pokémon.
Moon Not only are these Pokémon fast runners, they're also few in number, so anyone who finds one must be lucky indeed.
Ultra Sun It seems that other Pokémon's efforts to take its delicious, nutritious egg away from it caused Chansey to get faster at fleeing.
Ultra Moon Because the eggs on their bellies have been overharvested by people in the past, the Chansey population remains very small.

Evolution data

Chansey evolves from Happiny when leveled up while holding an Oval Stone during the day and evolves into Blissey when leveled up with high friendship. Chansey cannot evolve into Blissey in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen before the player obtains the National Pokédex, as the evolution will be interrupted. Chansey also cannot evolve into Blissey in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, as Blissey is not present in those games. In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Chansey evolves from Happiny when exposed to an Oval Stone during the day.

Trivia

  • In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Chansey was originally known as "Lucky", which also happens to be its romanized Japanese name.
  • Chansey shares its category name with Exeggcute. They are both known as the Egg Pokémon.
  • Chansey received the biggest decrease to its Special stats in Generation II, losing 70 points of its Special Attack stat.
  • Chansey's HP increase is the largest single stat increase after evolving from Happiny, at 150 points.
  • Chansey is tied with Happiny for the lowest base Attack and Defense stats of all Pokémon, both at five.
  • Chansey's HP is the highest base stat to base stat total ratio. Its HP stat of 250 makes up approximately 55.6% of its base stat total.
  • Chansey, Porygon2, and Dipplin are the only non-fully evolved Pokémon that evolve from another Pokémon through the use of an item.

Origin

Chansey's names, the fact that it shares nutritious eggs, is very rare and runs very quickly suggest it may be based on literal luck and its elusiveness. It also serves the typical RPG game role of a medic.

Chansey's tendency to carry eggs in a pouch is very reminiscent of a monotreme (mainly the echidnas) or marsupial, but it may also simply be based on a general concept of females and motherhood. As the Pokédex mentions its frequent laying of nutritious eggs, Chansey may also be based on chickens or other poultry, and its "ears" give it the semblance of an axolotl.

Name origin

Chansey may be from either chance or chancy.

Lucky is literally lucky.
