Happiny Weakness
Happiny is weak to Fighting. On the flip side, it's immune to Ghost-type moves entirely. Happiny's special bulk (base 65 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.

Base Stats
The stat line revolves around HP. Percentage recovery gets extra mileage here. Sp. Def backs it up, though Attack doesn't pull its weight. Worth 1 HP EV on a fast 800K XP curve to max out.

Happiny Guide
For a casual playthrough, Happiny works as a placeholder. Normal coverage is useful early. The real payoff is Chansey. That's where the stats start mattering.
Game Availability
Since Diamond & Pearl, Happiny has been in 13 games. Requiring an item-based evolution to obtain means it's consistently available but requires more effort than simply catching it in the wild.
