Candy needed for a cost-4 starter:

Passive ability
30 🍬
Cost reductions
15 / 40 🍬

    Very strong egg moveset with Rock Head and Reckless both unlocked. It easily holds its own despite being a 2-cost. Dragon Dance allows it to scale to bosses. Biggest weakness is against Water types with Swift Swim, so have a good switchout ready.
