===Candy XL===

The amount of Candy XL that can be randomly received has been observed to follow a weighted coin-toss model with two parameters: a maximum number of coin tosses (or maximum number of random Candy XL), ''n'', and the probability of receiving a Candy XL for each coin toss, ''P''.  

Since April 28, 2022, having an active Mega-Evolved Pokémon may increases ''P'' for Pokémon that share at least one of the Mega Evolution's types, depending on its Mega Level. ''P'' is increased by 10% for a High-Level Mega Evolution and 25% for a Max-Level Mega Evolution.

==Uses==

===Evolution===

{{main|List of Pokémon by evolution family (GO)}}

* Two-stage lines usually require {{candy}}50.

* Three-stage lines require {{candy}}25 for the first evolution and {{candy}}100 for the second.

** {{p|Caterpie}}, {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Wurmple}}, {{p|Whismur}}, and {{p|Pidove}} require only {{candy}}12 for the first evolution and {{candy}}50 for the second.

* [[Baby Pokémon]] require {{candy}}25 to evolve for the first evolution and {{candy}}50 for the second, if any.

** {{p|Marill}} only requires {{candy|Marill}}25 to evolve.

** All two-stage Baby Pokémon introduced in [[Generation IV]] require {{candy}}50 to evolve.

* Regardless of the above, all Pokémon that may evolve using a [[Sinnoh Stone]] require {{candy}}100 to evolve.

[[Generation II]] evolutions which require a [[Sun Stone]] or [[evolution item]] in the [[core series]] games also require that same item in Pokémon GO (in addition to Candy). Most Pokémon with [[List of cross-generational evolution families|cross-generational evolutions]] introduced in [[Generation IV]] require a [[Sinnoh Stone]] and {{candy}}100 to evolve. For evolutionary families introduced prior to [[Generation V]], other Evolution stones (including the [[Ice Stone]]) are not required in Pokémon GO. The [[Unova Stone]] is required for all Unova-based evolutions that require some Evolution stone, except for {{p|Cottonee}} and {{p|Petilil}}, which require a Sun Stone instead. {{p|Helioptile}} also requires a Sun Stone to evolve, currently being the only [[Generation VI]] Pokémon to require an evolution item in Pokémon GO.

===New Attack===

The player can spend {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and Candy to teach a Pokémon a second Charged Attack. In addition, {{p|Wobbuffet}}, {{p|Smeargle}}, {{p|Taillow}}, and any Pokémon that learns {{DL|Struggle (move)|Pokémon GO|Struggle}} cannot learn a second Charged Attack, except for [[Shadow Pokémon (GO)|Shadow or Purified forms]] that already know {{m|Frustration}} or {{m|Return}}.

In addition, these are the exceptions to the above:

* All [[baby Pokémon]] require {{Stardust}}10,000 + {{Candy}}25

* {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}} require {{Stardust}}75,000 + {{Candy|Eevee}}50

[[File:GO Prerelease Evolution Shards.png|thumb|150px|Evolution Shards]]

* The maximum possible amount of Candy that can potentially be used on a single Pokémon in GO is {{candy|Meltan}}804 on {{p|Melmetal}}, which include:

** {{candy|Meltan}}304 to power up from level 1 to level 40
