Do you use Rare Candies?

    I currently have 3 unused Rare Candies because I would rather get EV points than just level them up. I also avoid using the Exp. Share.
     
    Yes,I use them to check Ivs on my pokemon. Iv battles are pointless for me >.> Tho,its more accurate..
    But finding someone to do it,then adding the FC,waiting for the other person,blah and blah....
    So,rare candies for me! ^_^
     
    Yeah, I usually save them all til the end so I can raise my Pokemon several levels in one sitting.
     
    I only use them whenever im too lazy to actually train my pokemon or when I really want to level my pokemon.
     
    Yeah. I'd usually use them on an Evo. level, IF they evolve by leveling.

    Or, I save them for when my pokes are lvl 99..... Then again, that's a GREAT time for EV training.

    Eh, I never go through with it anyways XD
     
    I actively save Rare Candies for the purpose of IV checking. I have 27 saved up at this point, which is enough for a pretty accurate check. I'll use them, take note of the Pokemon's stats, reset the game, rinse and repeat. So technically I do use them, just not in the normal sense.
     
    Well , I now have all my Rares in Pt. (which is like ... 90 ? ) . I just have them in Medicine for Showcase but all I have from Sapphire and FR (and I keep getting) gets transferred to Platinum .
     
    I rarely use rare candies.
    I currently have 6 unused rare candies in my platinum version.
     
    In Platinum i've only used one RC. I did it because I was too lazy to go all the way through Mt. Coronet to find the higher-levelled pokemon so that my Modest Magneton could evolve into a Magnezone. >_>

    In Emerald, I just used my 4 Rare Candies on my Metagross to elevate it from Lv. 95 to Lv. 99 just because I didn't want to go through 4 more of "Exp. remaining till level up: 30000+"
    I just didn't want to train that much at the time.

    I'm probably not going to use them anymore. Seeing as I can have IV battles with a friend, and with the introduction of the Power items (god bless you, Nintendo) I think it's easier to EV train too.
     
    I use the candies purely for IV checking, so I pool them.
    But I've pooled too much, and have around 150-ish shared between P/Pt/SS.
     
    I don't use them. I just wanna be fair. C:

    And I suppose it's better to level'd up your pokemon than using Rare Candies. ;P
     
    I save my rare candies for newly hatched pokemon or eevee's. that way if i want them to evolve i dose them up on protiens and calciums then give them that rare candy. Then Bingo, it evolves =)
     
    I don't remember the time when I last used them. I usually attach them to my to-be-traided pokemon.

    But..they're candies and they are rare, so it would have been only fair if trainers would have fed them to their pokemon. Probably they taste real nice 0_0
     
    This is definately off topic but is it against the pc rules to ask for someone's friend number for trade evolving?
