      Correction: Not the Chansey line. Just Chansey. Unlike the Stick/Leek (which is what it's called from gen 8 onwards, which is also when Sirfetch'd was introduced, so it's technically a different item), which works for both Farfetch'd and Sirfetch'd, the Lucky Punch only works for Chansey, not Happiny or Blissey.

      Given that ditto copies the stats of its target, the powders persisting would also give ditto an edge in the mirror match to make up for taking a free hit turn one while it transforms.

    In defense of the ditto items, you arent really gonna have Impostor in a normal playthrough. You can give your ditto the option to take a hit better before it can transform, or make it able to transform faster.

    This has probably been mentioned before (considering that this is a mayor oversight that most people would notice) but you missed Lucky Punch, which happens to arguably be the most devastating signature item in the entire franchise! It is like the incredible Stick, but for a Pokemon that is already good!
    Here is my Chansey moveset from Smogon Gen 7 OU:
    Chansey @ Lucky Punch
    Adamant nature
    EVs: 212 Atk / 100 Def / 196 Spe
    Ability; Healer
    Tri Attack
    Last Resort
    HYPER BEAM (!!!!)
    Body Slam
    This set is really good. Yes, you lose out on the Eviolite buffs, but it is totally worth it. I beat my brother using this Chansey. The strategy is to use Body Slam and Tri Attack to status to opponent, and because one move is physical and the other is special, you can hit hard on both sides! And then when they least expect it, you can unless a DEVASTATING HYPER BEAM and blast their Pokemon to smithereens! And with the Lucky Punch a critical hit is almost guaranteed!
    I am not sure about Last Resort, but PS marks it as a good move for Chansey and PS is made my Smogon so who am I to question the pros? Just slap it on and use it, all Chansey other moves are garbage anyway.
    Also, there is this thing in Pokemon called STAB meaning "Super Top A-tier Buff" which gives great power and this Chansey gets it with ALL his moves! Just do not tell this to your friends because if you do they will complain!
    To round out this set is healer. In singles it has a chance to randomly change your Pokemon in a Pokegod like Pikablu. I have never seen it happen but my best friend has had it happen to him twice. Too bad that he deleted his save file with his Pokegods on it. The first time he got Pikablu and the second time he got Raikill, which is a Electric/Kill type Raichu which can instantly defeat any Pokemon. And yes, Kill is an actual type in the game. My friend says he deleted his save file because he did not like the Kill type.

      I think they all have their uses. Fire is obviously a great sweeper, but the others aren't bad either.
      Grass has the speed and move pool to have a decent set. You can build it bulky and have it harass with follow me, Taunt, encore, or scary face.
      Water meanwhile is bulky, makes Urshifu's life miserable with follow me and water absorb, and can run a decent set overall.
      Rock is similar to water, but exchanges a good defensive typing for a good offensive spread with Rocky Cudgel.
