In {{g|GO}}, each evolutionary family has its own kind of Candy, usually named after the lowest stage of each [[List of Pokémon by evolution family in Pokémon GO|evolutionary family]], which can only be used on members of that family. For example, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Venusaur}} all require Bulbasaur Candy to [[Power Up]]. The {{p|Nidoran♀}} and {{p|Nidoran♂}} evolutionary families have separate Candies. Each Candy has its own color scheme based on the Pokémon it is named after. Prior to the addition of [[Generation II]] Pokémon, {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} had their own Candies, which were later converted into {{p|Tyrogue}} Candy. | |||
In June 2017, the [[Rare Candy#Pokémon GO|Rare Candy]] was introduced as a wildcard Candy. It's a rainbow-colored Candy that, when used on a Pokémon, turns into the Candy of that evolutionary family. | In June 2017, the [[Rare Candy#Pokémon GO|Rare Candy]] was introduced as a wildcard Candy.

[[Generation II]] evolutions which require a [[Sun Stone]] or [[evolution-inducing held item]] in the [[core series]] games also require that same item in Pokémon GO (in addition to Candy).

In past updates, two-stage Pokémon that cost {{candy}}50 to evolve have their cost reduced to {{candy}}25 whenever a cross-generational third-stage is added, like with {{p|Zubat}} and {{p|Duskull}}. {{p|Snorunt}}'s evolution cost was increased when {{p|Froslass}} became available, due to it requiring a Sinnoh Stone to evolve into Froslass (and all Sinnoh Stone evolutions cost {{candy}}100), the cost to evolve into Glalie was increased to match. | In past updates, two-stage Pokémon that cost {{candy}}50 to evolve have their cost reduced to {{candy}}25 whenever a cross-generational third-stage is added, like with {{p|Zubat}} and {{p|Duskull}}. {{p|Snorunt}}'s evolution cost was increased when {{p|Froslass}} became available, due to it requiring a Sinnoh Stone to evolve into Froslass (and all Sinnoh Stone evolutions cost {{candy}}100), the cost to evolve into Glalie was increased to match. | ||
