What it does
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 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.
You may play as many Item cards as you like during your turn (before your attack).

Where it came from
The Rare Candy card from the Dark Explorers expansion was released in May 2012 as part of the wider Black & White series of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Designed to accelerate gameplay, the card allows players to evolve a Basic Pokémon directly into a Stage 2 Pokémon, bypassing the middle Stage 1 form. This functionality has made it a staple strategic element in deck building since the game's inception, consistently appearing in updated versions across various sets.
The Dark Explorers artwork was created by illustrator Toyste Beach. In this iteration, the item is depicted with the characteristic vibrant, stylized aesthetic common to the Black & White era. While the card is technically classified as an uncommon, its utility in competitive play led to it being highly sought after by players, maintaining a reputation for both visual appeal and mechanical necessity within the Pokémon competitive circuit.
