Details

Limited-Time Mini Candy Boost
Mini Candy Boost uses fewer Dream Shards than the regular Candy Boost function, so even beginner researchers can easily use this limited-time function.

Using Mini Candy Boost lets your helper Pokémon get twice the usual amount of EXP from candies in exchange for using four times the usual amount of Dream Shards per candy. This function can be used with up to 50 candies per day.

You can freely toggle this function ON or OFF by tapping the button in the upper right of the Level Up screen. Consider using Mini Candy Boost when you want to level up your helper Pokémon!
Note: This function will be set to ON by default during the event.

Notes

• 【Important】 Each day of the event rolls over at 4:00 a.m.
• Event bonuses apply only to sleep data tracked during the event.
• If you wait to report sleep data tracked before the event began and select “Review Later” during the event, event bonuses will not be applied.
• If you wait to report sleep data tracked during the event and select “Review Later” after the event has ended, event bonuses will be applied.
• Event bonuses do not apply to sleep tracking during the tutorial.
• You won’t be able to use the limited-time Mini Candy Boost function after the event ends. If Mini Candy Boost is available again during another event, the amount of EXP gained, Dream Shard consumption, and/or the number of candies that can be used in one day may change.
• If overlapping events trigger more than one of the same type of bonus, the larger bonus will be applied.
• Event bonuses will not raise main skill levels beyond max level. The value of the main skill displayed on the Pokémon details screen is the value before the bonus effects apply. Also, for Pokémon that were already on your team before the event started, the first time their main skill triggers during the event, in some cases, may not include the bonus effect.
