And no don't ask me, I won't let the secret out.

Well, that's fine.
I hope it has an awesome twist...
Yume Tsuki:
I usually save the rare candies for the last few level-ups to make these go faster and only on pokemon that still need a lot of EXP to level up since it just elevates it to the next level and start from the beginning. Most people use rare candies up to four times to compare IV's with the level 1 pokémon they just hatched.
Tickles:
Not a fan of the Rare candy, don't really use it in the games, in fact, if I do come across it randomly, I just toss it. But I like the idea of an exp boosting item, giving a small amount of free exp.
Noah_Road:
I EV train first, then use any Rare Candies that I may have.
I read somewhere (pretty sure it was a pokemon web-comic) that Rare Candies make pokemon gain a level because they have a very rare mineral in them called Pokezyme or something like that. Pokezyme is a substance that replicates Monozymes which are excreted into a pokemon's blood from its organs when it levels up. Hence, a Rare Candy tricks the pokemon into thinking that it leveled up (this is why it gains no EVS, because the level gained is not real or synthetic).
In other words, they're like steroids...filled with sugar. :D

Yup, like we all know that RC is a bit cheap, often abused by some people, even if it's hard to find/obtain, it still doesn't make sense.
After all, how can a candy make you stronger? (except it's drugs :o )
Ah yes, my suggestion for this thing:
- Don't make Rare Candy level up a Pokemon instantly.
- Rare Candy will only give a Pokemon an XP boost (like 100XP, 1500XP, 3500XP, 10000XP, etc).
- Rare Candy can be obtained through missions or quests, or buying it from a special person, (the PokeMart selling RC seems a bit weird, right?), mixing berries, etc.
- Turn Rare Candy to something more... legit (like medicine, gemstone, magic powder, or somethhing that doesn't make you think they're drugs).
- Give some side effects of using some types of RC (lowers EVs or stats, lowering Pokemon happiness, etc).
- And for the storyline, I think it would be better that the evil organization is creating and smuggling illegal RC, medicines, or something that can control Pokemon and make them obey the evil organization, your job is to stop their actions and find a cure for the infected Pokemon.
- Run out of ideas here (-__-")
Anyway, that's all it is, and I hope you agree with me 8)

In the actual games. Rare Candy is the worst item ever. When you use them your pokemon does not gain EVs. Leaving your team a lot weaker than players who did not use them.

While this is true affer you get their ev's maxed out it doesnt matter, you can just use rare candys all you want.
