Hi guys,
I have only one good Chansey from the recent event, cp950 86.7% lv23 15atk/9def/15sta. 80 candies. Worth evolving? I see the defense stat is pretty glaring...

But using the cp calculator on this site, this Chansey will "only" have 24 cp less than a perfect IV Chansey. Is it a go? Thks.

Attack 15 is the tits! I think it's a good go one. Good luck!

I don't think CP is a meaningful measure of the effectiveness of a blissey as a defender. All you care about is def and sta. The big pink pillow isn't going to KO anything, it's all about slowing down the attacker so they time out, or just decide to go for some other gym that has something less time-consuming to beat up.

The 15 on attack will have a huge impact on its max CP kuz its base attack is so low. Definitely worth evolving that Chansey.

I would definitely go for it. That is a very good Chansey, and I think Blissey may be even better than we thought, so no reason to wait. Maybe consider keeping the 30 candies (and not powering up) to see if you can find another Chansey.

The defense stat is glaring? Think about what it means for a second: 9 out of 15 doesn't mean that it has only 60% of the defense of a perfect specimen; it means that it has a defense stat of 185 out of a perfect 191. In other words, your Chansey is 97% of perfect on defense (actual stat, not IV), and 100% perfect on attack and stamina.

Maybe where you live, perfect Chanseys are a dime a dozen, but where I live any Chansey is hard to come by, even during the V-day event. The question to ask yourself is how long will it take to find/hatch a better one than the one you have?

Thks for the reply. I've only caught this Chansey during this event. Was pumped that she had perfect stat for both atk and sta. I've just been reading other threads where ppl say defense is more important; stamina not so much. This being my only one, and hard-pressed for candies, I would like for her to be as strong as possible.
