Candy

Candy

Use it to level up or evolve Pokémon
Details

Candies are of the Items in Pokémon GO and are obtained by capturing Pokémon, sending them to Professor Willow, or opening Eggs.

You can use Candies to level up your caught Pokémon so they gain higher Combat Points (CP), as well as giving them higher stats. A large amount of Candies can also be used to evolve a Pokémon.

Evolutions[]

12-candy evolutions[]

A few of the lower tier Pokémon only need 12 to evolve them. Using a Lucky Egg and then evolving a lot of these Pokémon at once is a smart and easy way to level up quick.
