Collector Insights

Rare Candy is an Item card from the Violet ex set, released on January 20, 2023. It is classified as a Uncommon rarity card with the number 72 in its set. The card’s flavor text describes a mechanic where a player selects one of their Basic Pokémon in play, then checks if they hold a Stage 2 card that evolves from that Pokémon. If so, the player can evolve the Basic Pokémon by placing the Stage 2 card onto it, bypassing the Stage 1 evolution step. This ability is restricted to players who are not on their first turn and cannot be used on a Basic Pokémon that was recently placed into play. The card’s artist is Studio Bora Inc., and its design is part of the Japanese language release. The card’s functionality focuses on facilitating evolution through strategic card management during gameplay.

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.
