Chansey is one of the bulkier walls by virtue of high HP and Eviolite, walling many prominent special attackers such as Primarina, Magnezone, and Volcarona. Toxic helps dispatch threats that can heal up on Chansey such as defensive Arcanine, Roost Kyurem, and non-Rest Slowbro. Soft-Boiled helps in matchups where the foe also has recovery to maintain health while Toxic whittles them down, which is particularly useful against Quiver Dance Volcarona, although Chansey will have to play around Substitute if Volcarona is running that. While Chansey's physical bulk is not nearly as good as its special bulk, the given EV investment allows for its to be as physically bulky as possible, letting it survive a hit from Choice item Haxorus, offensive Rillaboom, and Jolly Choice Scarf Galarian Darmanitan to OHKO them with Counter. Charm is an option over Counter to handle physical attackers that would like to set up on Chansey such as Shell Smash Crustle, Swords Dance Rhyperior, and Bulk Up Zeraora. Charm should be used to PP stall and negate boosts from the foe's setup moves to a point where any combination of Chansey's moves will win.
Chansey is taken advantage of by Choice item attackers with Trick such as Rotom-H, Porygon-Z, and Gengar. Toxic can assist in dealing certain anti-stall measures such as Aromatisse and Fake Tears Sylveon; Chansey should use it before they are able to overly debilitate it with support moves like Encore + Disable and Fake Tears. Good teammates for Chansey are attackers that don't care about Trick and are able to retaliate, such as Choice Specs Magnezone and Choice Band Snorlax. Chansey also doesn't appreciate faster Taunt users such as Grassy Seed Rillaboom and Skarmory, as they PP stall Chansey and slowly chip it down. Good partners that alleviate this weakness include Substitute + Disable Dragapult and stall Arcanine.
