Candy (Sleep)
Candy (Japanese: アメ Candy) is a type of currency in Pokémon Sleep used to level up and evolve Pokémon. 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 use Bulbasaur Candy. Each candy has its own color scheme based on the Pokémon it is named after.
Acquisition
In Pokémon Sleep, Pokémon candies can be obtained by the following methods:
Collecting from helper Pokémon
A helper Pokémon may randomly gather 2 candies of its evolutionary family, indicated by the candy icon above them. A Pokémon will not gather any more candies until the player has collected the candies from it.

Uses
Candies in Pokémon Sleep are used to give EXP to and evolve Pokémon.
Earning EXP
Using candies on Pokémon is one of the two ways to have them gain EXP; the other way is to do sleep research with the Pokémon as the player's helper. Each candy used on a Pokémon yields 25 EXP.
Evolution
Each Pokémon requires a specific amount of candies to evolve into their next stage, as follows:
- 20 candies: Baby Pokémon*
- 40 candies: Unevolved Pokémon (not counting baby Pokémon, and not counting Pokémon that evolve using evolutionary items)
- 80 candies: First evolution Pokémon, and Pokémon that evolve using evolutionary items
