Using cheat devices to generate Rare Candies bypasses the core gameplay loop (training, battling, exploring), risks save corruption, and violates the spirit of fair play—especially if you trade or battle online.
Rare Candies spawn as hidden items across Unova. Use the Dowsing Machine (Key Item) in these high-yield areas:
In Black 2, develop Join Avenue (between Castellia City & Route 4). Shops like Dojo, Café, or Market can sell Rare Candies. Rank up shops by visiting daily and answering survey questions.
Many players have surplus Rare Candies from PWT grinding. Trade a breedable HA Pokémon or Bottle Cap for a stack.
Use a Pokémon with Frisk + Thief/Covet to farm them on Route 4 / Lostlorn Forest.
Legitimate effort yields not just candies, but better teams, game knowledge, and the satisfaction of earned progress.
