Trivia
- Chansey was originally going to use her Japanese name, Lucky, as her English name.
- Chansey has the second-highest base HP of all Pokémon. The first is Chansey's evolution, Blissey.
- Chansey, along with Happiny, has the lowest base stat for both Attack and Defense in the games.
- Chansey is one of five Pokémon that initially, did not evolve into or from another Pokémon, but now is part of a three-stage evolutionary line (the other four being, Electabuzz, Magmar, Porygon and Roselia).
Origin
Its tendency to carry eggs in a pouch is very monotreme- or marsupial-like. It may also just be based on a general concept of females and motherhood.
Name origin
Chansey's name is a corruption of chance; like its Japanese name, Lucky, it seems to refer to the rarity of this Pokémon.
In other languages
- German: Chaneira
- French: Leveinard - Le veinard means "The lucky one".
