like what dogs should you breed to your chihuahua to get a teacup

Teacup Chihuahuas are just very small purebred Chihuahuas. It is not an ethical practice.
Other breeds sold as "teacups" include Maltese, Yorkies, Poodles, and even Mini Schauzers. But most are purebred. I would run from anyone who advertised such dogs.

Honey there are no teacup anythings when it comes to dogs including Chihuahua's. When it comes to Chi's there are long coats and short coats, but no teacups.

I have 4 Chihuahua's myself. 2 under 4lbs, but they are not teacups. Just small Chihuahua's. One long coat 1 short coat. Thankfully both are very healthy. Not all tiny ones are. I bought them for who they are not the size they would grow to. I also have a 5lb and a 9lb Chi. I love them all the same. Just because Sierra is bigger than standard does not mean anything to me. Size does not matter at all.
Unless you are experienced with tiny dogs it's better to go for one that is likely to be bigger than 4lbs. The tiny ones can sometimes have lots of health issues and are very delicate

You breed the runts of the litters. Which is unhealthy and cruel and theres NO such thing as a 'teacup' anything. Look it up at the AKC. ANYONE selling a 'teacup' anything is a byb or puppymill.
