Where are the Chanseys?

[malnpudl]

I've been Googling to see if anyone has identified which biome (if any) Chansey belongs to, and there doesn't seem to be any consensus, at least not yet, possibly because of their extreme rarity.

Now that they're part of the current pink-Pokemon event -- and therefore at least a bit less rare, though still clearly uncommon -- I thought we might try collecting and sharing any data we have.

If you've seen any Chanseys in the wild, whether you managed to catch them or not, please comment and say where they were and what other kinds of Pokemon were to be found there.

Maybe we can help each other take advantage of the event.

I've never seen a chansey until this event - one was on the border between an electric biome hotspot and our typical garbage residential spawns, the other was in a plaza which doesn't usually spawn anything of note among the local biome.

Uncommon spawns in the first mostly grassy outside the electric area - meowth, rhydon, etc.

Uncommon spawns in second would be eevee, venonat, bellsprout, oddish, nidoran with a few freshwater types sprinkled in.

The first spot I don't know well enough to speak to the clefairy or Jigglypuff rate, the second has a clefairy hotspot at a stop down the street. Both suburban retail areas with multiple pokestops within any 500 ft radius.
