There are two types of Candy: stat-based and species-based (first introduced in Pokémon GO).
There are three types of Candy: stat-based Candy, species-based Candy, and Rare Candy.


Stat-based Candy can be used by any Pokémon, regardless of species, 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.

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 it hits the maximum 200 AVs. 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.

[[Rare Candy]], like in previous games, raises a Pokémon's [[level]] by one.
