Candy has been part of Pokémon GO<\/a> since it came out, but Candy XL was only available for the first time with the GO Beyond update. The new kind of Candy increased the possible CP of all Pokémon within the game.<\/p>\n

In the past, the max level for Pokémon GO was level 40, and there was no need for the XL version of the Candies. With the GO Beyond update though, the level cap was increased to 50, and it created a necessity for larger end-game Candies. But with the Season of GO, the XL Candies just became far more accessible.<\/p>\n

How to collect and use Candy XL in Pokemon Go<\/h2>\n

In Pokémon GO: Season of GO, the level required to start collecting Candy XL was reduced to Trainer level 31. Before this, players need to reach at least level 40 to start collecting. Before level 31 though, Trainers will still be unable to collect any XL at all.<\/p>\n

After level 31, every Pokémon caught will have the chance to provide XL Candy along with regular candy. Typically, there will only be one, but sometimes two can appear. Transferring the same type of Pokémon will also give the chance to get an XL, but it’s not always guaranteed.<\/p>\n
