Why can’t I get the Happiny to evolve

pokemon-x-y

I've spent ages working with my happiny battling with it (while it's holding the Soothe Bell), using the befriending power, feeding it the berries that make it more friendly. Why won't it allow me to evolve it?

Can someone explain what I'm forgetting to do, what I'm doing wrong or if there is something wrong with my game; because this is driving me mad.

Happiny evolves by leveling up while holding the Oval Stone during the daytime, not due to happiness/friendship. That's how Chansey evolves to Blissey.
