What do the attacks on Chansey 72 cost, and what do they hit for?

The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 10 damage, which is 3 damage for every Energy card attached.

Chansey 72 — every printed attack, its cost and its damage
Attack	Energy cost	Cards of Energy	Printed damage	Damage per Energy	Effect
Bind Wound	2 Colorless	2	—	—	Flip a coin. If heads, remove 2 damage counters from 1 of your Pokémon (1 if it has only 1).
Dogpile	3 Colorless	3	10×	3	Count the number of Pokémon on your Bench. This attack does 10 times that number of damage to the Defending Pokémon, and Chansey does 10 times that number of damage to itself.

Retreating costs a further 2 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.

Bind Wound2 Energy cards

Dogpile3 Energy cards

What each attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.

One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.

Dogpile 3 Energy10 damage for 3 Energy — 3 per Energy card10

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (10).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

A number on a Pokémon card is not always the number that lands.

Dogpile is printed as 10×, so the printed number is multiplied — the attack deals that much for each thing the sentence beside it counts.

Is Chansey 72 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

What does being a Colorless card do for Chansey 72?

Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.

Deals double to this card 1,884 Fighting cards carry that type A Fighting attack printed at 45 damage is enough to remove this card in one turn.

What knocks out Chansey 72 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Of the 1,061 cards in the archive that can remove Chansey 72 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 50 printed damage against a bar of 45. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.

What is Chansey as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Chansey 72 is one print of Chansey. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.

Chansey has been printed 27 times, and the printed numbers move from one print to the next. Point at a card to see it full size.Tap a card to open its page.

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (200 HP). The note beside each bar is the hardest attack printed at that stage.

Every print of a stage is counted, not just the one shown in the chain above, so the bar is the ceiling that stage has reached rather than one card from it.

Is this the strongest Chansey print, and can the older ones still be played?

27 prints carry this name in the archive, and 25 of them are laid out below. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.

Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.

Rows run from the toughest print down. Bars are printed HP, measured against the toughest print of this name shown here (190 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

Chansey 72 in depth — what these figures add up to

Three readings of the same card, side by side: what it costs to get going, where it sits among the cards it will be compared with, and what takes it off the field.

What it asks a deck for

Its hardest attack, Dogpile, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 3 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

What actually removes it

A Fighting attack printed at 45 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 90 HP.

Chansey 72 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Chansey 72?

Chansey 72 has 90 HP and a Fighting weakness at ×2, so a Fighting attack printed at 45 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 90.

What is the strongest attack on Chansey 72?

Dogpile, printed at 10 damage for 3 Energy — 3 damage per Energy card. Count the number of Pokémon on your Bench. This attack does 10 times that number of damage to the Defending Pokémon, and Chansey does 10 times that number of damage to itself.

What is the retreat cost of Chansey 72?

2 Energy, discarded from this card to move it out of the active spot. Retreating is allowed once per turn.

What does the × after the damage on Dogpile mean?

It marks the damage as conditional: the printed figure is dealt once for each thing the sentence on the card counts. The full sentence is printed on the card and quoted in the attack table on this page — "Count the number of Pokémon on your Bench. This attack does 10 times that number of damage to the Defending Pokémon, and Chansey does 10 times that number of damage to itself."

Can an older Chansey print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 25 prints listed on this page, 5 are legal in Standard play. The rest can still be played in formats that accept them, and the table on this page names the regulation mark each print carries.

Can Chansey 72 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited play. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

Does this page say how good Chansey 72 is in a deck?

No. Every figure here is read from the printed card. Deck lists, tournament results and win rates are not published on this site, because the card files it reads do not contain them.
