Rare Candy was reprinted again during the Sun & Moon Series as part of the {{TCG|Sun & Moon}} expansion, first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Sun & Moon Starter Set}} and {{TCG|Premium Trainer Box}} simultaneously on December 9, 2016, with new artwork by [[Toyste Beach]]. This print was subsequently available as both numbered and unnumbered Holofoil {{TCG|SM-P Promotional cards}} as part of two Japanese events. The numbered print, 025/SM-P, could be obtained as a victory award for players participating in the Pulverizing Pancake Battle at the Welcome Festa, held at the Sunshine City Convention Center in East Ikebukuro, Toshima, Tokyo on January 14, 2017, and also as a victory award for players participating in the Pulverizing Pancake Battle 2 at the 2017 Osaka Champion's League, held at MyDome Osaka, Osaka on February 18 and 19, 2017. The Pulverizing Pancake Battle 2 event was only held on the second day of the Champion's League. Both events required a pair of players to enter together: one to participate in the Trading Card Game segment, the other to participate in the Video Game segment. Players would receive 1 copy of the numbered print for every 1 win in any segment, with a limit of 4 copies per person. Each numbered print also featured a [[List of other event distributions in Generation VII#Pulverizing Pancake Battle Rare Candy|serial code]] used to redeem a Rare Candy in Japanese region copies of [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]]. While the cards were awarded for individual wins in each segment, only wins for a pair counted towards the tally for each event. If one member of the pair won in the Trading Card Game segment for example, but the other member lost in the Video Game segment, it counted as an overall loss for the pair. Pairs could also swap their roles during the event if necessary. The top four pairs in terms of overall wins would progress to the single-elimination finals. At the Welcome Festa only, the top three pairs at the end of the event were each awarded an unnumbered copy of this card featuring a foil stamp of their overall position, presented in a Perspex case.

The Pulverizing Pancake Battle 2 event was only held on the second day of the Champion's League. Both events comprised a Trading Card Game segment and a Video Game segment, and required a pair of players to enter together. The segments were not concurrent, therefore individuals could participate in both segments if they so wished, so long as each member of a pair participated in different segments. Players would receive 1 copy of the numbered print for every 1 win in any segment, with a limit of 4 copies per person. Each numbered print also featured a [[List of other event distributions in Generation VII#Pulverizing Pancake Battle Rare Candy|serial code]] used to redeem a Rare Candy in Japanese region copies of [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]].
