What to do with Chansey?

I hatched a Chansey, 80% 10atk/13def/13hp. I accidentally powered her up once but her combat power is 353 and HP is 310. Moves are Zen Headbutt and Hyper Beam. Would she be good to train with? I don't think she'd be a good defender.Thanks!

Unfortunately, Chansey doesn't have place in the current meta.

Chansey is pretty much made for training up your own gyms or defending while they are attacking. Her low CP cap means you can gain much more prestige when fighting a defending pokemon.

What I've done is made a "trainer" pokemon, in this case, it's a double my chansey's CP raticate with poor IVs and easy to dodge moves. Because of the differences in CP, each time I beat the Raticate with my chansey I get 1000 prestige.

I wouldn't bother trying to defend with her, she gets knocked out very quickly because of her low CP, and then she is really only good for wasting enemy potions/timing out gyms.

I also don't think you need to power her up, she gains a very low amount of CP per powerup, so I'd instead choose just to work on a few pokemon that she can beat easily that I put in gyms.
