Evolving Happiny Into Chansey in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl
To evolve Happiny into Chansey, you need to make it hold an Oval Stone during the Daytime.
To do this, open your bag and select the Oval Stone, then choose the ‘Give’ option and select the Happiny from your party. As long as it’s holding this during the Daytime, it’ll eventually evolve into Chansey.
It’s worth noting that your Happiny doesn’t have to be a specific level to evolve into Chansey, either. As long as it’s holding the Oval Stone during daytime, you’ll be all set.
Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl both use the real-world clock for the in-game time, so as long as you’re playing during daytime hours, it’ll be daytime in the game.
Getting an Oval Stone
There are two ways you can get an Oval Stone in Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl.
The first is by simply catching multiple Happiny’s. Happiny has a 50% chance of holding an Oval Stone when it’s caught in the wild.
The other way is to go to Route 209 and head to the Lost Tower. When you’re inside, go to the second floor and battle the trainer (Youngster Oliver) across from a Poke Ball item. After you’ve beaten them, interact with the Poke Ball to get an Oval Stone.
Finally, you can get an Oval Stone from the Grand Underground by searching around. A Hiker NPC found under Twinleaf Town will also trade you some.
Getting Happiny in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl
The easiest way to get a Happiny is to head to Hearthome City and speak to the Hiker next to the exit on the east side of the city. When you do, he’ll offer you an Egg that he found at the Daycare. Keep this Egg in your party until it hatches and it’ll eventually hatch into a Happiny.
Happiny can also be caught in both Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl in Trophy Garden between levels 16-18.
Evolving Chansey Into Blissey
Now that you’ve got your Chansey, you can have it evolve into Blissey by ensuring it has high Friendship. There is no minimum level requirement for Chansey to evolve into Blissey, either.
