Collector Insights

Rare Candy is an Item card from the Steven's Beldum & Metagross ex Starter Set ex, released on February 21, 2025. It is numbered 12 and illustrated by Studio Bora Inc. 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 may place that card onto the Basic Pokémon to evolve it, bypassing the Stage 1 phase. This effect is conditional on the player not being on their first turn and the Basic Pokémon not having been placed into play during the same turn. The card’s unique function revolves around facilitating evolution through strategic card placement. Its design aligns with the set’s thematic focus on evolving Pokémon, emphasizing connections between different evolutionary stages. The absence of attack or HP statistics reflects its role as a support card rather than a combatant.

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.
