Candela (Japanese: キャンデラ Candela) is the leader of Team Valor (Japanese: チームヴァーラー Team Valor) in Pokémon GO. Team Valor is researching Pokémon strength, and is represented by Moltres. Team Valor Trainers believe that their Pokémon are the strongest because they train to naturally enhance a Pokémon's power in search of true strength.

She is one of Professor Willow's assistants, along with Spark and Blanche. She is the oldest of the three team leaders.^[1] While a very passionate and emotional person, Candela is capable of approaching difficult situations calmly. Candela was once close friends with Team GO Rocket Leader Arlo, who used to be a member of Team Valor prior to Candela becoming its leader.^[2]

On November 7, 2019^[3], Candela sent the following message to Team GO Rocket Leader Arlo:

"Arlo. You’re right—I haven’t changed. I stand just as strong as I always have, and that’s what Team Valor needs: a leader who stands strong. Next time, battle me in the field and not with your words."'

Quotes

Introduction

"I'm Candela — Team Valor's leader! Pokemon are stronger than humans, and they're warmhearted, too! I'm researching ways to enhance Pokemon's natural power in the pursuit of true strength. There's no doubt that the Pokemon our team have trained at the strongest in battle! Are you ready?"

"I've been hearing reports of some mysterious characters near PokéStops. You should take charge and go investigate. Be careful, and make sure you're prepared for a battle!"

"You opponent fled...and left their Pokémon behind. That really burns me up. There seems to be an ominous aura around the Pokémon, too. Could you try to catch it and see what's so different about this Pokémon?"'

"I think we can help this Pokémon. Purification is a process that makes certain Pokémon stronger by tapping into their inner power. Let's give it a try."

Team GO Rocket invasion (after collecting first Mysterious Component)

"That Grunt dropped something while they were running scared! What are they using these for? I bet this is what Team GO Rocket is using to hack the PokéStops... We have to find more. Time to battle some Grunts!"

Team GO Rocket invasion (while a Rocket Radar is equipped)

• Upon first equipping

"Great work! Fighting all those Grunts was worth the effort! A Rocket Radar! Professor Willow said once it’s equipped, you can intercept signals from Team GO Rocket. Finally, we can find those hideouts! Let’s GO take out these punks!"

• If there are no hideouts in the vicinity

"Looks like we’ve scared ’em all off! Wanna try looking in a different area? Hmm, nothing here. Let’s see if we can pick up the trail in a new location."

• If there are currently no hideouts

"Hah, you must have driven them out—no signals from any hideouts at all! Let’s check again in the morning. I have a feeling Team GO Rocket’ll be up to something then. In the meantime, I’ll ask if Blanche knows anything."

Team GO Rocket invasion (while a Super Rocket Radar is equipped)

• Upon first equipping

"Just look at this radar! You can just tell it’s more powerful than the others! My bet? It’s receiving signals from Team GO Rocket Headquarters. I’m getting fired up, but I know there have to be more hurdles before facing the Team GO Rocket Boss. I’ve heard their boss is fierce... But you’re on Team Valor, so I know you can handle it."
