There are support candies where you will receive by finishing league, levelling up or gaining experience. You can use them to upgrade your support Pokemons, which will add a boost to their ability. Since support candies are limited, it is important to use them efficiently. After gathering a bunch of opinions from various users, here is the list of best support Pokemon to upgrade:

1. Piplup – Gives you 3 training points every 1:30 hour when it is boosted to max rank (rank 3). Useful for levelling up your Magikarp thus progress through the leagues faster. Since it refreshes every 1:30 hour, it means you could get a total of 6 training points every 1:30 hours too.
2. Rowlet – Gives you 18,000 coins every 4 hours when it is boosted to max rank (rank 5). You know coins are extremely important right? You will need them for upgrading the foods and training which in turns gives you more JP.
3. Snorlax – Gives you 25 foods which is actually an incredible value of JP when you upgrade your foods to a high level. Besides, you only get the chance to trigger the Snorlax event after you owns Snorlax. The event rewards you 3 training points with no chance of failure. Such a good deal!

Well, I only collect 2 of the support Pokemon till now. How many support Pokemon did you own? Tell me in the comment below, or leave your opinion!
