'''Candy''' (Japanese: '''アメ''' ''Candy'') is a type of vitamin introduced [[Pokémon GO]] and later carried over to [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].


==In [[Pokémon GO]]==
'''Candy''' (Japanese: '''アメ''' ''Candy'') is a type of [[item]] in the [[Pokémon games]]. They can be used on a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} outside of {{pkmn|battle}} to permanently increase certain attributes.
Candy can be used to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon.  Each evolutionary family has their own kind of Candy, usually named after the lowest stage of each [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary family]], which can only be used to evolve or strengthen members of that family. For example, Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, and Venusaur are all powered up by Bulbasaur Candy, and may not use any other kind of Candy. {{p|Nidoran♀}} and {{p|Nidoran♂}} evolutionary families have separate Candy. Each different kind of Candy has its own color scheme, based on the Pokémon it is named after.


===Obtaining Candy===
==Types of Candy==
There are several ways to earn Candy:
===Rare Candy===
* Catching a Pokémon gives the player 3, 5, or 10 of that Pokémon's Candy depending on whether it has not evolved, has evolved once, or has evolved twice. (Prior to February 16, 2017, all Pokémon gave 3 Candy.) Pokémon that evolve from [[Baby Pokémon]] are not considered evolved, except {{p|Togetic}}.
{{main|Rare Candy}}
** Using a [[Pinap Berry]] doubles the amount of Candy the player receives.
A Rare Candy increases a Pokémon's level by one. It can also be used to [[Evolution|evolve]] level 100 Pokémon that [[Methods of evolution#Leveling up|evolve by leveling up]].
* Hatching a Pokémon from an {{pkmn|Egg}} gives the player some of that Pokémon's Candy. The number of Candy obtained varies between 5 and 32.
* The player can permanently transfer a Pokémon to [[Professor Willow]] in exchange for 1 piece of its Candy.
* Evolving a Pokémon gives the player 1 of that Pokémon's Candy.
* When player walks a certain distance (1, 3, 5 or 20km) with Buddy Pokémon, they are rewarded with 1 Candy of that Pokémon.
* Feeding a Pokémon in a {{OBP|Gym|GO}} can sometimes give 1 of that Pokémon's Candy.


===Evolution===
===Exp. Candy===
Typically, a three-stage evolutionary line requires 25 Candy for the first evolution and another 100 Candy for the second evolution, while a two-stage evolutionary line requires 50 Candy for their evolution. The {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Caterpie}}, {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Ledyba}}, {{p|Wurmple}}, and {{p|Whismur}} families all require less than this, while the {{p|Magikarp}}, {{p|Wailmer}}, {{p|Swablu}}, {{p|Feebas}} and {{p|Meltan}} families require more. [[Baby Pokémon]], except {{p|Riolu}}, require 25 Candy to evolve, and their evolutions usually only require 50 Candy to evolve again.
{{main|Exp. Candy}}
An Exp. Candy increases a Pokémon's [[experience]] by a flat amount, which is different depending on the size.


Evolutions which require a [[Sun Stone]] or [[evolution-inducing held item]] in the [[core series]] games also require that same item in Pokémon GO. Pokémon which require an [[evolutionary stone]] or item introduced in [[Generation IV]] are exception to that, as they require [[Sinnoh Stone]] instead (all of these Pokémon also require 100 Candy to evolve). Other evolutionary stones are not required in Pokémon GO.
===Game-exclusive Candy===
====Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], there are three types of Candy: stat-based Candy, species-based Candy, and Rare Candy, which appear as a type of item stored in the '''Candy Jar'''. Candy can be used to increase a Pokémon's {{AV}}s, except the [[Rare Candy]], which instead boosts a Pokémon's [[level]].


:''See also: [[Candy/Evolution]]''
=====Stat-based 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.


===Power Up===

Powering Up Pokémon costs both {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and Candy. The cost varies with the Pokémon's Power Up level, which increases by 1 every time it is Powered Up, and newly caught or hatched Pokémon do not necessarily start with a Power Up level of 1.

==In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]==
The following lists how many Candy it takes to incrementally increase a Pokémon's AV to a certain value, depending on the Candy's size.
{{incomplete|section}}


The concept of Candy was reintroduced in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! as a way to increase a Pokémon's [[awakening values]]. Candies are given their own Item Pocket called the '''Candy Jar'''.

=====Species-based Candy=====
Species-based Candy can only be used by Pokémon of its corresponding evolutionary family. Bulbasaur Candy, for example, can only be used by {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|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 {{p|Tyrogue}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} have separate Candy.


===Effect===
{| class="roundy" style="background:#{{kanto color}}; border:3px solid #{{kanto color dark}}"
Candy can be considered counterparts to the main series's [[vitamin]]s and [[wing]]s, as they are used to increase a Pokémon's stat, but through AVs instead of [[effort values|EVs]]. There are two types of Candy: species-specific Candy (first introduced in Pokémon GO) and stat-specific Candy.

Stat-specific Candy can be used by any Pokémon, regardless of species, to raise the AV of a specific stat. They come in three sizes: regular, L and XL. They are more commonly found than species-specific Candy, as multiple of these Candy 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.  
=====Acquisition=====
Candy is most commonly obtained through catching [[wild Pokémon]] or [[Released Pokémon|transferring]] Pokémon to [[Professor Oak]]. The type of Candy obtained depends on the species caught or transferred. The stat-based Candies that can be rewarded correspond directly with the species' [[effort values]] yield in other core series game. For example, if a Pokémon like {{p|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 {{p|Seadra}} which gives both Defense and Special Attack EVs, may award Tough Candies, Smart Candies, or both.


All species-specific Candy, like in Pokémon GO, can only be used by Pokémon of a specific evolution line. Bulbasaur Candy, for example, can only be used by {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Venusaur}}. When one is used, it will increase all stats by one AV point, up until it hits the maximum 200 AVs. Unlike in Pokémon GO, species-specific Candy do not play a role in evolution.
:''See also: [[List of Pokémon by effort value yield]]''


===Types of Candy===
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.

If you were looking for the currency in Pokémon GO, see Candy (GO). For the currency in Pokémon Sleep, see Candy (Sleep).

Candy (Japanese: アメ Candy) is a type of item in the Pokémon games. They can be used on a Pokémon outside of battle to permanently increase certain attributes.

Types of Candy

Rare Candy

Main article: Rare Candy

A Rare Candy increases a Pokémon's level by one. It can also be used to evolve level 100 Pokémon that evolve by leveling up.

Exp. Candy

Main article: Exp. Candy

An Exp. Candy increases a Pokémon's experience by a flat amount, which is different depending on the size.

Game-exclusive Candy

Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!

In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, there are three types of Candy: stat-based Candy, species-based Candy, and Rare Candy, which appear 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.

Stat-based 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.

Stat Candy
HP Health Candy Health Candy Health Candy L Health Candy L Health Candy XL Health Candy XL
Attack Mighty Candy Mighty Candy Mighty Candy L Mighty Candy L Mighty Candy XL Mighty Candy XL
Defense Tough Candy Tough Candy Tough Candy L Tough Candy L Tough Candy XL Tough Candy XL
Special Attack Smart Candy Smart Candy Smart Candy L Smart Candy L Smart Candy XL Smart Candy XL
Special Defense Courage Candy Courage Candy Courage Candy L Courage Candy L Courage Candy XL Courage Candy XL
Speed Quick Candy Quick Candy Quick Candy L Quick Candy L Quick Candy XL Quick Candy XL
Min Level — Lv 30+ Lv 60+
Max AVs 50 100 200


The following lists how many Candy it takes to incrementally increase a Pokémon's AV to a certain value, depending on the Candy's size.

Species-based Candy

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.

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. The stat-based Candies that can be rewarded 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

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.

For every Pokémon transferred, Professor Oak will award the player one stat-based Candy based on whichever Candy it may yield when caught in the wild. Transferring (releasing) Mew uniquely gives the player with 2 Mew Candy immediately, in addition to the regular 1 Health Candy.[1]

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

Several Voltorb Candy can be found daily as hidden items in the Power Plant

Additionally, depending on the game, players can obtain PikachuP/EeveeE Candy once through the following means:

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
