Chansey (the Egg Pokémon) is an exceptionally rare Normal-type Pokémon found among grassy fields within the Kanto, Sinnoh, Alola, Galar, Hisui and Paldea regions and the Blueberry Academy Terarium as well as the Unova region on rare occasions and possibly the Hoenn region. Renowned for their extraordinary rarity and valued among the Japanese Pokémon medical community for their role as nurses, Chansey are fascinating creatures that certainly have their own special role within the world of competitive battling. They might not be able to do or take much physical damage whatsoever, but if there is one thing these odd mammals can do, it's keep themselves and others healthy!
Chansey are monotremes that are able to virtually clone themselves without suffering much damage to their genes in the process, so the Chansey that exist today are likely genetically identical to the ones that may have existed thousands if not tens of thousands of years ago. Although Chansey only lay fertilized eggs every couple of months or so, they generally lay several egg a day like clockwork, carrying them at all times within their front pouches. This limited fertilization period, however, has resulted in severe consequences for them when combined with human overharvesting of said eggs in the past, resulting in very low population numbers overall. Chansey are exceptionally patient mothers and seem to treat every single egg they lay, fertilized or not, as if it actually did contain their future descendant; as such, Chansey are very careful about how they walk so as to not damage the egg, although they are still able to run away from predators and trainers alike with alarming speed to keep the eggs safe from consumption, having once been slow-moving to keep their eggs protected before developing their running skills to avoid predators and protect said eggs. When they no longer have any particular use for an unfertilized egg, a Chansey will generally find someone they deem to be kind or injured and give it to them as a gift; in the wild, this makes Chansey a tremendous benefit to other wild Pokémon, as the yolks of their unfertilized eggs are exceptionally packed with nutrients and are beyond delicious, making them a favorite food for many species and a high-class cooking ingredient, further having been given the nickname of "doctors' doubles". The actual flavor and nutritional content of the eggs, however, is actually dependent upon the general mood and well-being of the Chansey that laid them; the happier and more lovingly they are treated by others, the better the eggs are. Regardless, it is safe to say that this alone makes Chansey highly sought-after by people of all types, though the chances of ever finding one are still slim to none; this has become especially apparent ever since the Kanto Safari Zone was closed, as only the relatively-new Johto Safari Zone possess these rare creatures in captivity today. Even rarer are two items also associated with both the species and its entire family in general: the Lucky Egg and Lucky Punch items. The Lucky Egg is a curious egg imbued with the strange ability to increase the amount of experience Pokémon earn from battles when held, though the exact reason why is still unknown. The Lucky Punch, on the other hand, only works with Chansey and has the effect of increasing the chance of them scoring a critical hit as a result of increased physical strength; unfortunately, due to their lack of actual physical strength to begin with, the usefulness of the item is all but nil.
It is duly noted, though, that there is one place where Chansey are not only easily found but are practically a dime a dozen within Japan: Pokémon Centers. Because of their extremely kind natures and penchant for taking care of others, Chansey have become an almost constant staple among Japanese Pokémon Centers within the past several decades. While Chansey are generally not the fastest of creatures nor the best in terms of handling especially physical patients, they are very calm and patient with others and have more than enough stamina to work many hours at a time before needing any sort of break. In addition, Chansey themselves can actually heal other Pokémon with their patented Soft-Boiled technique (which primarily involves them producing an egg packed with far more nutrients and energy than any egg normally would, making it a signature technique for both them and Blissey) outside of battle, though doing so takes away from their energy reserves, a fact that is generally of little importance considering their massive HP reserves. Most importantly, though, Chansey are exceptionally intelligent and have been known to assist trained medical professionals in surgery on many occasions; unfortunately, due to a lack nimble limbs and adaptable features, Chansey are unable to perform delicate operations by themselves and are generally limited to roles as nurses in all cases. Even still, the benefit that they provide is more than helpful to the otherwise understaffed Japanese Pokémon medical community and it is likely that their numbers will only increase among professional use as the years continue to go by.
Despite a lack of decent combat ability, Chansey are invaluable creatures that have practically made Pokémon Centers in Japan the friendly, warm-hearted places that trainers have come to know and love over the years. You probably won't see many of these critters on the battlefield anytime soon, but if you ever manage to find one, consider yourself exceptionally lucky. Just try not to ignore them and give them plenty of loving care; otherwise, there's a good chance that the only taste their unfertilized eggs will have is rotten!

Sound: They have a very distinct, high pitched howl. More feline than canine in nature. This is a sound commonly heard in the mountain, and the ones making the noise are ALWAYS female. It's a mating cry. So, if you're carrying Field Egg group Pokemon with you, make sure it doesn't wander off towards the sound on its own without your permission. If you're going to let it go there, first confirm with it where it's going and why, so it doesn't appear as if it just suddenly disappeared from your side.
The other sound to take note of is its alarm cry. It i

Sound: Now here's something curious. Whenever Arceus manifests out of a wormhole, it opens its mouth, and emits a sound wave that greatly distorts timespace around itself. To us, it sounds like a reverberating cosmic echo of sorts, distorting the air around it to the point where it can be heard clearly from miles away, and playing any frequency we can imagine at once. That is, that's the sound it makes if it's not speaking.
Arceus can speak to us, yes, but in a very strange manner. Its telepathic voice sounds to us li

I wonder if Chansey's unfertilized eggs make cakes extra delicious.
