I totally agree with @Gengar1 and @Kevin260709. I even did that if the Shelgon was also 84% IV. Just for the Candies. ---

I use it on whatever my current buddy is that I’m trying to evolve. I don’t like letting it take up bag space. ---

I’d go with Mewtwo, as it’s more useful of the two. Even if you evolve the Shelgon, you are probably going to need to burn some TMs to get a useful moveset. The only exeption would be if you don’t have any good dragon type attackers already. But if you have decent Dragonites/Rayqazas/Latioses, Salamence doesn’t do much and you’d need even more candy to level it up to decent CP anyway. Then again, I play mostly for effect and only play the collection aspect when it doesn’t interfere with optimizing my raiding/gym taking, so if completing your collection is more important to you, then going for the Salamence might be the right way to go for you. ---

If you already have a good dragonite, go for the mewtwo. ---

Yes, but just to save some candies. And btw it’s better to have new Pokémons I guess. ---

Power/evolve your shelgon. Try to get another pair of ex raid and then choose what mewtwo you want to power ---

I would only use my rare candy on legends. The thing is, surely tyranitar is a good investment BUT I wouldn’t be surprised if they would do a rock type event in the near future and larvitar would be everywhere. Those rare candies you used would become useless then. ---

I wouldn’t use them on tyranitar. As I suspect a larvitar CD is coming. ---

Unless it is taking your bag up I would wait until next community event day is announced and then if not larvitar consider tyranitar. Also did you say you could not solo machamp like me. I can now I got a mewto. What move set yours have however [Next page](https://forum.pokemongohub.net/t/where-to-use-rare-candy-on/5370.md?page=2)
