If you have been playing Pokemon Go and been on social media.. some players now have the ability to buddy up their pokemons while playing.. what does this do? It gives you the ability to get more pokemon candy for the specific type of Pokemon that you have as a buddy.. Here is how to do it.. Make sure you have updated your application to the latest version..Just go to the store and check..Once done.. open your
Pokemon Go
Click on the button on the bottom of the screen when you click on the player icon… choose buddy..
From there you can chose which pokemon you want to assign as your buddy.. now earning the candy works like hatching an egg. by walking… not sure if its every kilometer or if it takes longer as you play longer to earn the candies.. since I just tried out the buddy system very recently.. although your buddy will not be seen on the screen where it shows your player walking around.
