While keeping your trusty Pikachu with you at all times would be nice, there will come a time where you\u2019ll need to evolve your Pikachu into Raichu. Whether it\u2019s for a quest or just for the sake of change, you\u2019ll need to evolve materials to perform any evolves. During the early stages of the game, you\u2019ll just need the specific type of Candy for each Pok\u00e9mon to evolve them, but it\u2019ll slowly change as you continue to level up. Rarer Pok\u00e9mon will require more advanced evolution\u00a0items\u00a0that are hard to come by, and some Pok\u00e9mon will be so rare that you\u2019ll have a hard time collecting Candy for the theme. When that\u2019s the case, the Rare Candy will be the only item that can save the day. Rare Candies can be used on any Pok\u00e9mon, saving you from hunting around for a specific type of Candy. Rare Candies will be lifesavers when it comes to evolving rare Pok\u00e9mon, but as their name suggests, they\u2019re also quite difficult to find. Here\u2019s how you can get the most amount of Rare Candy in\u00a0Pok\u00e9mon Go. How to get more Rare Candy in\u00a0Pok\u00e9mon Go Generally, Pok\u00e9Stops are the one common spot for all consumables in\u00a0Pok\u00e9mon Go. For Rare Candies, though, you\u2019ll need to look somewhere else. They are usually awarded for completing raids. Going through raids is one of the most consistent ways of obtaining more Rare Candy. There\u2019s a Raid type for all difficulty levels, and you may even have some Rare Candy stacked from your old Raid runs. Considering Raids are available all year, they\u2019ll be the most reliable way of obtaining Rare Candies. Alternatively, you can also check out the list of available Special Research and Time Research Tasks to see if there\u2019s one that rewards players with Rare Candy. These tasks usually appear during events and most should be completed before the event wraps up. If you\u2019re looking to make the most amount of Rare Candy, you may want to consider only using them for legendary Pok\u00e9mon and those you just can\u2019t collect Candy for. This way, you\u2019ll only consume your Rare Candies whenever you need them the most and you should always have a stack waiting for your next evolve from Raiding.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/19162809\/pokemon-go-gen-1-starters.jpeg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392689"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1802"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=392689"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392689\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":570957,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392689\/revisions\/570957"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/362089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392689"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=392689"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=392689"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=392689"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=392689"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=392689"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=392689"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
