Does Chansey still evolve by maximum friendship in X and Y?

Question

I my Chansey's Affection and Enjoyment at maximum, and have it's Fullness at max with it levels up, yet it has yet to evolve. Does anyone have any tips, ideas, or have an explanation to why it hasn't evolved yet?

Answer 1

Yes, it still evolves into Blissey when it levels up with a Friendship Value of 220 in Pokemon X & Y. Source

What your problem is is that Affection does not equal Friendship. You gain Friendship by walking around with the Pokemon in your party, giving it vitamins, leveling it up, massaging it in Cyllage City, using a Soothing Bag in Super Training, or using EV-Lowering berries on it.

Anyway to figure out when it's at max?

In Laverre City, talk to the breeder in the fan club. A message of "You must really like your <Pokémon> and always keep it by your side!" means it is ready or near-ready to evolve. A message of "It's amazingly friendly toward you! It must be so happy spending every day with you!" means the friendship is nearing the Maximum of 255.

I just checked, it and said that I need to keep it by my side, leveled it up, and it still didn't evolve...

---

No, I worded my comment wrong. The message has a range of values that INCLUDES the value of 220, 220 isn't the minimum for that message. You're almost ready to evolve it.

---

So which comment should I have when it's ready to evolve?

---

"You must really like your <Pokémon> and always keep it by your side!"

---

But it said that and it didn't evolve.

Look at the source page for more info. Here's an illustory example:
"You must really like your <Pokémon> and always keep it by your side!"'
Min. Happiness Value for Message ------ Your Chansey ------ 220 ------ Max. Happiness Value for Message

---

The source page doesn't say anything about it's happiness...

---

Alright, it finally evolved.

The source page (the 2nd one, at least) is a detailed article on happiness.
The first (serebii) is how Chansey evolves
