Collector Insights

Rare Candy is an Item card from the V Starter Decks set, released on July 10, 2020. It is numbered 95 and designed by artist Yoshinobu Saito. The card’s flavor text describes a mechanic where a player selects one of their Basic Pokémon in play. If they possess a Stage 2 card in their hand that evolves from the chosen Pokémon, they can place that card onto the Basic Pokémon to evolve it, bypassing the Stage 1 evolution. This action requires the Stage 2 card to be compatible with the Basic Pokémon’s evolutionary line. The card cannot be used during the player’s first turn or on a Basic Pokémon that was recently placed into play. Its function emphasizes strategic resource management by linking card availability to evolutionary possibilities. The card’s design reflects its role in facilitating specific game interactions through its unique rule.

Choose 1 of your Basic Pokémon in play. If you have a Stage 2 card in your hand that evolves from that Pokémon, put that card onto the Basic Pokémon to evolve it, skipping the Stage 1. You can't use this card during your first turn or on a Basic Pokémon that was put into play this turn.
