Default Chart Format generated from a Pivot Table Data

After I Format a Chart generated from a Pivot table Data, and I change a
selection, for example "Plant".. Al the information on the chart changes,
according to the new plant selection, but, why the Chart Type and the format
also changes too... I need to keep the same chart type and format to keep
reviewing the information for the rest of the plants.... with the same chart
type and format.

Microsoft admits they goofed that one up:

XL2000: Changing a PivotChart Removes Series Formatting
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=215904

They suggest you record a macro, so you can reapply the format whenever the pivot
table is updated.
