Happiny is a Pokemon first introduced in Generation IV in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. Happiny evolves into Chansey, which then evolves into Blissey. However, unlike the Chansey to Blissey evolution that requires high friendship, you need to locate a specific item to evolve Happiny into Chansey. By the end of this guide, you will learn how to evolve Happiny in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.
How to Evolve Happiny in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl?
To evolve Happiny into Chansey, you must find an Oval Stone and have Happiny hold it during the daytime. If you already have an oval stone, find it in your inventory and give it to your Happiny. Once your Happiny holds an Oval Stone, wait until daytime and level up the Happiny to evolve it into Chansey. Since the Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl clock works in real-time, you will need to wait until daytime in your time zone. There is also no minimum level requirement for Happiny to evolve.

If you do not have an Oval Stone, there are two methods to finding one. To find an Oval Stone for your Happiny to hold, travel to the Lost Tower on route 209. Once you enter the tower, climb the staircase to the second floor. In the center of the room, you will find a Pokeball on the floor near an NPC. Find the Pokeball and interact with it to obtain an Oval Stone. Alternatively, you can also find Oval Stones while fighting wild Happinys. Each Happiny has a 50 percent chance of holding an Oval Stone, which you can take with the Thief move or Pickup ability.
Once you find an Oval Stone, your Happiny must hold onto it. Level up your Happiny during the day to evolve it into Chansey, consuming the Oval Stone in the process.
