Collector Insights

Rare Candy is an Item card from the Premium Trainer Box set, released on December 9, 2016. The card is illustrated by artist Toyste Beach and features a unique mechanic tied to evolving Basic Pokémon. Its flavor text describes a scenario where a player selects one of their Basic Pokémon in play. If they hold a Stage 2 card that evolves from that Pokémon, they can place the card onto the Basic Pokémon, effectively evolving it. This action counts as the evolution process for that Pokémon. The card’s effect has specific restrictions, such as being unusable during the first turn. It also cannot be applied to a Basic Pokémon that was recently placed into play. The card’s design and function align with its role as a Trainer card, offering strategic flexibility in gameplay.

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.
