As we all have heard, the Buddy Pokemon system for Pokemon Go is about to roll within days or weeks. How this works is that you can now basically pick a 'buddy' from your Pokemon inventory. Once selected, the Buddy Pokemon will go wherever the players avatar will go. The most important thing to remember is that you will be rewarded with candy per X number of km you have walked with your Buddy Pokemon in Pokemon Go. This is pretty nifty for your rare Pokemon since you don't need to hunt for them to get 3 candies per capture.
A post on Reddit by elfinlazz has surfaced on the internet containing the initial table for corresponding km to be travelled in order to be awarded with candy. For your convenience, we have converted the table into Pokemon being arranged alphabetically.
