Collector Insights

Rare Candy is an Item card from the Sun & Moon Starter Set, released on December 9, 2016. Its artist is Toyste Beach. The card’s flavor text describes a mechanic where a player selects one of their Basic Pokémon in play. If the player holds a Stage 2 card that evolves from the chosen Pokémon, they can place that card on the Basic Pokémon, effectively evolving it. This ability is conditional on the player having the required evolution card in their hand. The card cannot be used during the player’s first turn or on a Basic Pokémon that was placed into play during the same turn. It is numbered 45 in the set. The card’s unique function revolves around facilitating evolutionary transitions through card placement.

Choose 1 of your Basic Pokémon in play. If you have a Stage 2 card that evolves from that Pokémon in your hand, put that card on the Basic Pokémon. (This counts as evolving that Pokémon.) You can't use this card during your first turn or on a Basic Pokémon that was put into play this turn.
