[SET COMMENTS]

While Chansey is bulkier than Blissey thanks to Eviolite, this is rendered moot due to it being affected by hazards and Blissey’s ability to use Heavy-Duty Boots. However, this set has a niche on stall teams, as it takes over as the utility wall, freeing up Blissey to run Calm Mind to better beat special setup sweepers like Oricorio-P, Vivillon, and Mesprit. Thunder Wave allows Chansey to cripple Fighting-types that love to switch in on it and threaten it out while also slowing down Quiver Dance users. Heal Bell allows Chansey to clear status conditions for its teammates, which helps it against more defensive teams that may carry Toxic. Tera Ghost allows it to soft check a multitude of common physical attackers like Toxicroak and Tauros, while Tera Fairy grants it a great defensive typing against most of the metagame as well as a resistance to Fighting-type attacks.

Thanks to Chansey taking care of Blissey’s utility and ability to run Stealth Rock, Blissey and Sandaconda can now use Calm Mind and Coil for added insurance against special and physical boosters, respectively. Chansey quickly falls against physical attackers, so physical walls like Avalugg, Sableye, and Sandaconda make for great teammates. Because Chansey is forced to run Eviolite, it requires hazard control from the likes of Avalugg and Braviary. Common switch-ins to Trick and Knock Off like Sandaconda and Sticky Hold Muk are also greatly appreciated against Pokemon like Sableye, Mesprit, and Bombirdier, as Chansey requires its Eviolite. Setup sweepers like Mesprit and Hisuian Sneasel tend to overwhelm Chansey, so Pokemon like Sableye and Choice Scarf Ditto make for amazing partners. Against Rotom, Chansey is completely useless and is especially taken advantage of by Nasty Plot sets or crippled by Choice Scarf sets with Trick, so Pokemon like Umbreon, Crocalor, and Sticky Hold Muk check it.

While Chansey is bulkier than Blissey due to Eviolite, (this is a bit deceptive since while its true that it is bulkier then Blissey, it takes more damage on the switch anyway thanks to hazards so might be worth mentioning that) it is completely outclassed in every other way by it (defluffing) due to Blissey's ability to use Heavy-Duty Boots. But, it has a niche on stall, as it takes over as the utility wall, freeing up Blissey to run Calm Mind to better beat special setup sweepers like Lilligant Oricorio-P, Vivillon, and Mesprit. (nothing wrong with Liligant as an example but i thought Oricorio-P + Vivillon were more relevant) Thunder Wave allows Chansey to cripple Fighting-types that love to switch in on it and threaten it out while also slowing down Quiver Dance users. Heal Bell allows Chansey to clear status conditions for its teammates which helps it against more defensive teams that may carry Toxic. Tera Ghost allows it to soft check a multitude of common. Physical physical attackers like Toxicroak, and Tauros, and Scyther (tera ghost doesn't really help that much with Scyther) while Tera Fairy gifts it a great defensive typing against most of the metagame that still lets it take Fighting-type attacks.

Thanks to Chansey taking care of Blissey’s utility, Blissey can now use Calm Mind for added insurance against special boosters. Chansey quickly falls when against Physical physical attackers, so Physical physical walls like Avalugg, Sableye, or Sandaconda make for great teammates. Because Chansey is forced to run Eviolite, it requires hazard control from the likes of Avalugg and Braviary. Trick and Knock Off absorbers are also greatly appreciated against Pokemon like Sableye, Mesprit, and Bombirdier (thought it would be good to give relevant examples of knock and trick Pokemon) as Chansey requires its Eviolite, so Sandaconda and Sticky Hold Muk pair well with it. Setup sweepers tend to overwhelm Chansey like Mesprit and Hisuian Sneasel. To help against these, Pokemon like Sableye and Choice Scarf Ditto make for amazing partners.

(mention why Stealth Rock is primarily used over the other options for Pokemon like Sandaconda and Blissey to run Calm Mind/Coil as it isn't really mentioned otherwise, probably best to put it in the teammates section in the first sentence)
(also worth mentioning how Chansey is completely useless against Rotom and how you can help with it)
