Anything with high attack and/or good stamina or resistance so I don't have to dodge too much.
Gyarados BH, Arcanine BFi, Exeggutor ZSo, Rhydon ME

I personally only look at DPS (damage per second), the two Pokemon with the highest DPS are: Dragonite DB/DC (I only have one with DP, also gets the job done), or Alakazam PC/P

I've had success against Chansey with both Wigglytuff (P/HB) and Alakazam (PC/P).

If chansey is lvl 20(800-850cp), Any pokemon with more dps than 10,5lvl(870 cp) vaporeon does with hydro pump. Just confirmed. +20lvl vaporeon beats any chansey.

I prefer Rhydon with rock smash

Can I ask what is your strategy with Rhydon? Do you just spam attack and absorb the hits? I've always wanted to try him out, but fear the risk of timing out with a slow attacker.

I tried Hitmonlee one day with rock smash by mistake. It was too low cp but performed very well. Now against Chaney I only use rock smash but I am reluctant to power it up ( Hitmonlee ) until the next major update. Rhydon with rock smash will defeat Chaney quicker than any other PM without dodging in my opinion. I don't have machamp yet my last one in my dex.

The best attacker into Chansey is a Pokémon with a high base ATK and a fast (hopefully also has a high DPS) quick move (with STAB) like Machamp with KC/CC. Though Machamp is weak to psychic, that can cause some troubles.

Fighting does super effective damage into normal, so other Pokémon like Primeape (with LK/CC) are also useful.

I don't agree, in this particular case other attackers without dealing SE damage are for sure better choices than a fighting type, right now fighting types are too weak to compite agains the higher DPS even without SE like Dragonite, Alakazam, Vaporeon, Gyarados, Rhydon, Arcanine, etc...

To take a down a Chansey I would choose for sure any of those before a Machamp or a Primeape. If KC is buffed (as it should) then the choices might change, but for now, fighting are near to useless.
