Best Legendary and Mythical Pokémon to use Rare Candy On[ps2id id='Best Legendary and Mythical Pokémon to use Rare Candy On' target=''/]
Amazing Pokémon are generally the most secure uncommon treats speculation, on the grounds that not at all like different species, you can't get them in the wild and they don't bring forth from eggs. So the main approach to cultivating suppose Rayquaza confections is by doing Rayquaza attacks or setting it as your amigo and strolling 20km to get one Rayquaza candy. Legendary Pokémon then again are a marginally unique case. Some of them can be trapped in assaults (Genesect and Darkrai, for instance) while others (like Mew or Celebi) are interesting and you can get one of each. Here is my waitlist of amazing/legendary Pokémon that merit spending interesting candy on and a short clarification of why they have been picked:| Legendary & Mythical Pokémon shortlist | |||||

MewtwoPsychic
- (Shadow) Mewtwo is the best Pokémon in the game
- Best psychic type attacker with Psystrike (legacy)
- Has not 1 but 2 megas (!)
- Can play many different roles, both in PvE and PvP (ML, great safe swap)
MoltresFire
- Shadow Moltres is one of the best non-mega fire type attackers and the best non-mega flying type attacker
- Sky Attack (legacy) + Overheat is a deadly combo
- Regular Sky Attack + Overheat Moltres is still a top-tier attacker in PvE, but outperformed by Reshiram
RaikouElectric
- Shadow Raikou is the best electric type attacker in the game
- Regular Raikou is also a great attacker, but slightly outclassed by Zekrom & other shadows
- Usable in PvP, good coverage with Shadow Ball
RayquazaDragon
- Best non-mega & non-shadow dragon type attacker
- Signature move: Dragon Ascent (a flying type move 😉 )
- Can mega evolve in the future. Its mega will be crazy good
ReshiramDragonFire
- Best non-mega & non-shadow fire type attacker
- Signature moves: Fusion Flare and Blue Flare (not available yet)
- Usable in PvP, but there are better options
ZekromDragonElectric
- Best non-mega & non-shadow electric type attacker
- Signature moves: Fusion Bolt and Bolt Strike (not available yet)
- Good pick in Master League
Giratina (Origin)GhostDragon
- Probably the best non-mega & non-shadow ghost type attacker
- Signature move: Shadow Force (not available yet)
- Meta-defining Pokémon in Master League, also usable in Ultra League
DialgaSteelDragon
- The dragon that doesn’t take SE damage from other dragons
- Great dragon type attacker vs. other dragons with moves such as Outrage or Draco Meteor
- Great Pokémon to use vs. Team GO Rocket
- Signature move: Roar of Time (not available yet)
- King of the Master League, one of the best and safest investments if you’re into PvP. Pro tip: best buddy it to hit the Dragon Breath breakpoint in the mirror match. You won’t regret it
GroudonGround
- One of the best non-mega & non-shadow ground type attackers, slightly outclassed by Landorus-T and Earth Power Garchomp
- Has a primal reversion coming in the future
- Excellent signature move (Precipice Blades), not available as of now
- Meta-defining Pokémon in Master League, but you’ll need to teach it Fire Punch (legacy move)
KyogreWater
- Best non-mega & non-shadow water type attacker
- Has a primal reversion coming in the future
- Excellent signature move (Origin Pulse), not available as of now
- Very solid choice in Master League. Forms a very strong core with Dialga+Togekiss
DarkraiDark
- Best non-mega & non-shadow dark type attacker
- Amazing vs. psychic type raid bosses, and there are plenty
- Signature move: Dark Void (not available yet)
- A bit too fragile to use in PvP
YveltalDark
- One of the best dark type attackers in the game
- Does Darkrai’s job in PvP, but significantly better
- Signature move: Oblivion Wing (not available yet)
Zacian (Hero)Fairy
- Very good pseudo-fairy attacker
- One of the most versatile Pokémon to use in Master League. Works as a lead, as a safe swap and has tremendous closing power
- Its Crowned Sword variant will be even better
- Signature move: Behemoth Blade (not available yet)
Landorus (Therian)Ground
- One of the best ground type attackers in the game, only slightly outclassed by Earth Power Garchomp (and the ground type megas)
- Solid pick in PvP (Master League)
- Has potential to be even better in the future (can learn better moves, at least PvE wise)
ZarudeDarkGrass
- Grass monke is the best non-mega and non-shadow grass type attacker in the game
- The first viable grass type in Master League
- Signature move: Jungle Healing (not available yet)
Thundurus (Therian)Electric
- Highest non-mega & non-shadow electric type DPS in the game. Overall, slightly outclassed by Zekrom but still one of the best electric type attackers in the raid meta
- Can learn Thunder Shock AND Wild Charge in the main series games, so there’s still room for improvement

CresseliaPsychic
- Not a good attacker in PvE, it lacks offensive power
- Meta-defining Pokémon in open Ultra League and a very good pick in Great League too
MewPsychic
- You never know what moves Mew will be using against you, it’s one of the best wild cards to use in PvP, especially in Great League and Ultra League
ArticunoIce
- There are plenty of better options as an ice type attacker. Outclassed by many even as a shadow
- Very strong pick in Ultra League, thanks to Icy Wind and decent bulk
Deoxys (Defense)Psychic
- Not usable in PvE at all
- Dominant Pokémon in Great League and a very solid choice in Ultra League (XL)
RegisteelSteel
- Absolutely terrible in PvE
- Not as dominant as it used to be in both GL and UL after the nerfs but still a very decent choice
Mewtwo (Armored)Psychic
- Good bulk and a very decent moveset (Confusion, Psystrike + Dynamic Punch or Rock Slide) make it a very solid choice in open Ultra League, but that’s about it
EnteiFire
- Shadow Entei is one of the best fire type attackers in the game, only outclassed by the fire type megas
- If it gets access to Sacred Fire (assuming it has similar stats to Aeroblast), it could shake up the fire type attacking meta
- Needs to be shadow to compete with the top-tier fire type attackers
ZapdosElectric
- (Shadow) Zapdos is a spicy (and fragile) choice for Great League and Ultra League
- It’s not a cheap investment for GL at all, as it needs to have Thunder Shock (legacy) and also manage to not hit 1.5k CP
- Very good electric type attacker (as a shadow), but if you have to invest that much (Elite Fast TM + power up costs), it’d probably be better to invest in a shadow Electivire/Magnezone or of course Shadow Raikou
Ho-OhFire
- Not amazing in PvE (as of now)
- Signature move: Sacred Fire (I’d say there’s a good chance it might be coming sooner than expected, and if it’s an Aeroblast clone things might get hot indeed!)
- Very solid Master League pick with Incinerate, Brave Bird + Earthquake (legacy)
PalkiaWaterDragon
- Very decent dragon type attacker, but outclassed by Rayquaza, shadow dragons and dragon type megas
- Signature move: Spacial Rend (not available yet)
- Decent in PvP (ML), but not as good as it some of us expected it to be
Giratina (Altered)GhostDragon
- Not a great choice in PvE, lacks offensive power
- Meta-defining Pokémon in open Ultra League, also usable in Master League (where the Origin Forme dominates)
Landorus (Normal)Ground
- Decent choice as a ground type attacker, but its Therian forme is the real deal
- Usable in Master League as a wild card as it gets access to Mud Shot, Rock Slide + Earth Power and counters the steel types pretty well
HeatranFireSteel
- Heatran definitely got the shaft when Niantic decided to nerf it by giving it Fire Blast
- Signature move: Magma Storm (might shake things up!)
- Usable in open Master League as an anti-steel, outperformed by other options in that role
Genesect (Normal)BugSteel
- Technically the best non-mega and non-shadow bug type attacker in the game, but bug type attacks are really bad so I’d use other raid attackers if possible
- Solid performance in PvP (full analysis here)
- Signature move: Techno Blast
VictiniPsychicFire
- Not usable in raids, there are tons of better options
- V-Create hits pretty hard in PvP, but it’s mostly a spicy pick
- It’s a mythical, so there’s that
JirachiSteelPsychic
- Similar case. Not usable in raids as it is significantly outclassed by (shadow) MM Metagross
- Doom Desire is a good move in PvP. Jirachi can work as a wild card and in certain restricted metas, especially in Great League
- Mythical bonus points
Best non-Legendary and non-Mythical Pokémon to use Rare Candy on[ps2id id='Best non-Legendary and non-Mythical Pokémon to use Rare Candy on' target=''/]
Alright, now it’s time to analyse which “regular” Pokémon are worth using rare candies on. Personally, I would save my rare candies for the Pokémon listed in the tables above. But I understand that some people want to finish their Pokédex or need some of the rarest Pokémon for raids or PvP. If you decide to spend them in non-legendary and non-mythical Pokémon, in general the safest bet is to use them on pseudo-legendaries or very rare Pokémon that are viable in the current metagame.| Non-legendary & non-mythical Pokémon shortlist | |||||

HaxorusDragon
- What’s an Axew? Seriously, that Pokémon is way too rare both in the wild and in eggs
- Solid PvE dragon type attacker
- Strong pick in Master League Premier
LucarioFightingSteel
- Probably the best non-shadow fighting type attacker in the game, thanks to Aura Sphere. A bit fragile, though
- Will be able to mega evolve in the future, and its mega will be really good
- Riolu can only be hatched from eggs
- Incredible fighter to use in Team GO Rocket battles
- Usable in PvP, but not amazing (yet, we’ll see if Mega Evolutions can be used in GBL someday)
ConkeldurrFighting
- Very strong fighting type attacker in PvE, on the same level as Lucario but slightly worse than shadow Machamp
- Timburr can only be hatched from eggs and caught in raids
- Solid pick in Master League (both open ML and Premier)
HydreigonDarkDragon
- Outclassed in PvE both as a dragon and dark type attacker
- Deino is one of the best Pokémon in Little Cup
- Zweilous is a very solid pick in Great League (especially in certain restricted metas and cups)
- Although Deino has been featured in several events, it remains as a rare Pokémon in Pokémon GO
- Will probably have a Community Day (eventually), so keep that in mind before spending your RCs
GarchompDragonGround
- Very good dragon type attacker in PvE and an the best non-mega and non-shadow ground type attacker thanks to Earth Power
- Good pick in Master League (both open ML and Premier)
- Potential access to moves such as Dragon Rush (not in the game yet) and more
- Gible already had a Community Day. I’d hold off, unless you missed it
Darmanitan (Galarian Zen)IceFire
- Galarian Darmanitan is currently the best non-shadow ice type attacker in the game
- Its Zen Forme (not available as of now) is ridiculously overpowered and might get nerfed before release (similar case as Landorus-T)
- Unfortunately, its Zen Forme didn’t get access to a fire type fast move (only Ice Fang and Tackle). With Fire Fang + Overheat, it’d be more powerful than Shadow Moltres, just to give you an idea of what this Pokémon is capable of
- Probably not the best option, as it has been featured in several events
RampardosRock
- Rampardos is the one of the best rock type attackers in PvE. In fact, it’s so overpowered (base ATK of 295) that not even rock type megas can reach its level of DPS. It’s a bit of a glass cannon, though
- Cranidos has been featured in multiple events and it’s not a legendary or raid-only Pokémon, I’d hold off unless it’s strictly necessary
GoodraDragon
- Still a rare Pokémon to this day. Not amazing in PvE, as there are plenty of better alternatives
- Solid pick in Ultra League
- Will probably have a Community Day (eventually), so keep that in mind before spending your RCs
CarracostaWaterRock
- Tirtouga is one of the rarest Pokémon in the game. It’s not good or anything… just rare. If you’re a dex completionist, go for it
ArcheopsRock
- Archen is also one of the rarest Pokémon in the game
- However, unlike Tirtouga, Archen’s evolution (Archeops) has the potential to become one of the best rock AND flying type attackers in the game. It’s only held off by its TERRIBLE moveset
- All it needs is either Rock Slide or Fly and its viability will skyrocket. I mean, just look at its insane attack stat
- Probably not gonna happen anytime soon, if ever. Its ability in the main series games (Defeatist) halves its attack and special Attack while it is at or less than half of its maximum HP
You can get Sylveon by using 25 Candies and earning 70 Hearts when Eevee is your buddy Pokémon. If you have enough Candy and Hearts acquired, a silhouette of Sylveon will show up.
