How to Get Blissey in HeartGold & SoulSilver
Raise a Chansey to high friendship and it evolves into Blissey, the only path since none appear wild. The work is landing a Chansey first, usually the rare Safari Zone one, then keeping it happy.
Wild Blissey may be holding when caught:
Oval Stone (50% chance) A peculiar stone that makes certain species of Pokemon evolve. It is shaped like an egg.
Lucky Egg (5% chance) An item to be held by a Pokemon. It is an egg filled with happiness that earns extra Exp. Points in battle.Catch Chansey at any of these 3 spots to eventually evolve into Blissey.

How to Get Shiny Blissey in HeartGold & SoulSilver
Blissey needs a happy Chansey and an Oval Stone, so breed the Chansey line Masuda-style and raise it up. Compare Shiny Blissey odds across every game

HeartGold & SoulSilver Shiny Blissey Calculator
2 MethodsThe best route is Masuda Method, about 1 in 1,639 on each try.
Masuda Method: Breed with a parent from a different-language game. Works on any breedable line.
Full Odds: Walk through grass, surf, or fish. Every encounter is its own independent shiny roll.
How many you have done, or plan to do.
| Chance | Encounters | Time |
|---|---|---|
| 10%lucky few | 173-- | -- |
| 25%one in four | 472-- | -- |
| 50%coin flip | 1,136-- | -- |
| 90%very likely | 3,773-- | -- |
Time assumes -- at your pace and does not change your shiny odds.
How is this calculated?
Every encounter has the same shiny chance, the Shiny Odds Per Try shown above. Each one is a separate roll that does not care how many you have already done, so the more you hunt, the higher your overall chance of at least one shiny. The formula below turns your odds and your number of tries into that combined chance.
chance after N tries = 1 − (1 − p)^N, where p = 1 / odds per try
Example at 1 in 8,192 (classic full odds): about 864 encounters for a 10 percent chance, 5,678 for 50 percent, and 18,862 for 90 percent.
The table above flips that around: it shows how many encounters it takes to reach a 10, 25, 50, and 90 percent chance at your current odds. Turning on boosts like the Shiny Charm, sandwiches, or chains improves your odds, so the encounter numbers drop.
These are estimates, not promises. Most games have no pity counter, meaning no guaranteed shiny no matter how many you hunt, so even Very Likely is not guaranteed: some hunters find one early, others go well past that point.
For time estimates and charm math, open the HeartGold & SoulSilver shiny odds calculator with Blissey already selected.
Blissey Weakness
Type-wise, Blissey takes extra damage from Fighting. Ghost moves do nothing thanks to a full immunity. Blissey's special bulk (base 135 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Fighting |
| 0x (Immune) | Ghost |
- Fairy type does not exist — Dragon has fewer checks
- Physical / Special split now per-move (introduced Gen IV)
