Candy (Japanese: アメ Candy) is a type of currency introduced in Pokémon GO and a type of item in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! and Pokémon Sword and Shield.
In the core series games
In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!
In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Candy appears as a type of item stored in the Candy Jar. Candy can be used to increase a Pokémon's AVs, except the Rare Candy, which instead boosts a Pokémon's level.
Effect
There are three types of Candy: stat-based Candy, species-based Candy, and Rare Candy.
Stat-based candy can be used by any Pokémon to raise the AV of a specific stat, depending on the kind of Candy. They come in three sizes: regular, L and XL. They are more commonly found than species-specific Candy, as multiple of these Candies are often required to raise a single AV point. As a Pokémon's AV increases for a stat, it will require more and larger Candy to further increase the same stat by one AV. Regular-sized Candy can only raise a stat up to 50 AVs. L-sized Candy can go up to 100 AVs, but require the Pokémon to be at least level 30. XL-sized Candy can reach the maximum 200 AVs, but only work for level 60 and up.
Species-based Candy can only be used by Pokémon of its corresponding evolutionary family. Bulbasaur Candy, for example, can only be used by Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, and Venusaur. When one is used, it will increase all stats by one AV point, up until all stats hit the maximum 200 AVs, and has no level requirements. Unlike in Pokémon GO, species-specific Candy do not play a role in evolution. Additionally, unlike Pokémon GO since the introduction of Tyrogue, Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan have separate Candy.
- For a complete list of costs, see Awakening values → Costs
Rare Candy, like in previous games, raises a Pokémon's level by one.
Acquisition
Candy is most commonly obtained through catching wild Pokémon or transferring Pokémon to Professor Oak. The type of Candy obtained depends on the species caught or transferred. Professor Oak will award the player one stat-based Candy for every Pokémon transferred, based off the Candy it may yield when caught in the wild. For every 50 Pokémon of the same species transferred, Professor Oak will also award a species-specific Candy for that Pokémon.
Catching a wild Pokémon may sometimes award player a random number of Candy. The higher the player's Catch Combo, the more likely that higher quantities and larger Candies will be awarded. A player may start earning regular-sized Candy after catching 30 Pokémon. Candy L can be earned after catching 60 Pokémon, and Candy XL can be earned after catching 90. Players may start earning species-specific candy after catching a total of 120 Pokémon.
The stat-based Candies correspond directly with the species' effort values yield in other core series game. For example, if a Pokémon like Growlithe would yield EVs in Attack in those games, it may award Mighty Candies (of any size) if caught in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. Pokémon that would yield EVs for multiple stats, like Seadra which gives both Defense and Special Attack EVs, may award Tough Candies, Smart Candies, or both.
- See also: List of Pokémon by effort value yield
Species-based Candy can repeatedly be obtained by:
- Catching compatible Pokémon (chance of obtaining increases with Catch Combo)
- Transfer 50 compatible Pokémon of the same species to Professor Oak
- Stroll Pokémon with Poké Ball Plus (up to two Candies per every 5,000 Exp. gained)
- One Candy for strolling Pokémon and one Candy for walking Pokémon in game, if any

Note that as a result of the various acquisition methods, species-specific Candy for Legendary and Mythical Pokémon can only be obtained through one or more of the following methods:
- Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres: Repeatedly catch through wild sky rare encounters, transfer multiple from GO and send to Professor Oak, or stroll with the Poké Ball Plus
- Mewtwo: Transfer multiple from GO and send to Professor Oak, or stroll with the Poké Ball Plus. With no external devices, the only way to obtain one or more Mewtwo Candy would be to trade over numerous Mewtwo from separate save files before sending all of them to Professor Oak.
- Meltan: Transfer multiple from GO and send to Professor Oak, or stroll with the Poké Ball Plus
- Mew: Stroll with the Poké Ball Plus only
In Pokémon Sword and Shield
In Sword and Shield, along with Rare Candies, two other types of Candy are available: Exp. Candy and Dynamax Candy. An Exp. Candy, depending on its size, increases a Pokémon's experience by a flat amount. A Dynamax Candy increases a Pokémon's Dynamax Level by one, which increases the amount of HP it gains upon Dynamaxing.
Exp. Candy
For comparison, given the average and most common experience group:
- An Exp. Candy XS would bring a level 1 Pokémon up to level 4, a level 5 Pokémon up to level 6, and a level 99 Pokémon about 0.3% of the way to level 100.
- An Exp. Candy S would bring a level 1 Pokémon up to level 9, a level 15 Pokémon up to level 16, and a level 99 Pokémon about 3% of the way to level 100.
- An Exp. Candy M would bring a level 1 Pokémon up to level 14, a level 31 Pokémon up to level 32, and a level 99 Pokémon about 10% of the way to level 100.
- An Exp. Candy L would bring a level 1 Pokémon up to level 21, a level 57 Pokémon up to level 58, and a level 99 Pokémon about 34% of the way to level 100.
- An Exp. Candy XL would bring a level 1 Pokémon up to level 31, and a level 99 Pokémon up to level 100.
In Pokémon GO
In Pokémon GO, each evolutionary family has its own kind of Candy, usually named after the lowest stage of each evolutionary family, which can only be used on members of that family. For example, Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, and Venusaur all require Bulbasaur Candy to Power Up. The Nidoran♀ and Nidoran♂ evolutionary families have separate Candies. Each Candy has its own color scheme based on the Pokémon it is named after. Prior to the addition of Generation II Pokémon, Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan had their own Candies, which were later converted into Tyrogue Candy.
In June 2017, the Rare Candy was introduced as a wildcard Candy. It's a rainbow-colored Candy that, when used on a Pokémon, turns into the Candy of that evolutionary family.
Acquisition
There are several ways to earn Candy, each method yielding Candy for the affected Pokémon:
Prior to February 16, 2017, all Pokémon gave
3 when captured.
Pokémon that can evolve from Baby Pokémon, except Togetic and Lucario, are considered to be unevolved Pokémon, so only award
3 when caught, and their evolved forms only award
5 when caught.
Evolution
- Main article: List of Pokémon by evolution family in Pokémon GO
Candy is required for Pokémon to evolve. The cost in candy to evolve a Pokémon is typically based on its number of evolution stages, but with some exceptions:
- Two-stage lines usually require
50.
- Three-stage lines require
25 for the first evolution and
100 for the second.
- Baby Pokémon require
25 to evolve for the first evolution and
50 for the second, if any.
- Marill only requires
25 to evolve.
- All two-stage Baby Pokémon introduced in Generation IV require
50 to evolve.
- Regardless of the above, all Pokémon that evolve using a Sinnoh Stone require
100 to evolve.
Generation II evolutions which require a Sun Stone or evolution-inducing held item in the core series games also require that same item in Pokémon GO (in addition to Candy). Most Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions introduced in Generation IV require a Sinnoh Stone and
100 to evolve. For evolutionary families introduced prior to Generation V, other evolutionary stones (including the Ice Stone) are not required in Pokémon GO. The Unova Stone is required for all Unova-based evolutions that require some evolutionary stone, except for Cottonee and Petilil, which require a Sun Stone instead.
In past updates, two-stage Pokémon that cost
50 to evolve have their cost reduced to
25 whenever a cross-generational third-stage is added, like with Zubat and Duskull. Snorunt's evolution cost was increased when Froslass became available, due to it requiring a Sinnoh Stone to evolve into Froslass (and all Sinnoh Stone evolutions cost
100), the cost to evolve into Glalie was increased to match.
Purified Pokémon require 10% less Candy to evolve, with costs rounded down. For instance, a Purified Rattata, which would normally cost
25 to evolve, would instead only require
22.
Power Up
- Main article: Power Up → Levels
Powering Up Pokémon costs both Stardust and Candy. The cost to Power Up increases with the Power Up level. If a Pokémon were to be Powered Up from level 1 all the way to the maximum level 40, it would require
304 total (not including any used for evolution).
Shadow Pokémon require 3× Candy and Stardust to Power Up at all levels. Once purified, they require 10% less Candy and Stardust to Power Up than normal (with decimals of 0.5 or lower rounded down).
New Attack
- Main article: Move → Pokémon GO
The player can spend Stardust and Candy to teach a Pokémon a second Charged Attack. The cost varies on the Pokémon species and largely corresponds with the distance needed to walk for a Buddy Pokémon to find a Candy, but with some exceptions for starter Pokémon and baby Pokémon. In addition, Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, Kakuna, Magikarp, Ditto, Wynaut, Wobbuffet, Smeargle, Wurmple, Silcoon, Cascoon, Taillow, Feebas, Beldum, Kricketot, and Combee cannot learn a second Charged Attack.
Shadow Pokémon require 3× Candy and Stardust to learn a second Charged Attack. Once purified, they require 20% less Candy and Stardust to learn a new Charged Attack than normal.

Trivia
- In pre-release screenshots of Pokémon GO, Evolution Shards (Japanese: 進化のカケラ Evolution Shards) take the role of Candy, being earned by catching multiple instances of the same Pokémon and being used to evolve Pokémon. They did not have unique names or designs for each evolutionary family.
- The maximum possible amount of candy that can potentially be used on a single Pokémon in GO is
804 on Melmetal, which include:
304 to Power Up from level 1 to level 40
400 to evolve
100 to teach a second Charged Attack
