Code for a Buddy system was discovered recently (0.35.0 update). Buddy system allows one of your Pokemon to become a follower that would register the distance it has traveled with you similar to an incubating Egg.

After a certain distance traveled, the Pokemon will grant "Buddy Candies". The most logical explanation is that Niantic plan to allow us to generate specific candies by just walking with a specific Pokemon.

The code also points out that walking a Pokemon makes it untranserable and unusable in combat for a set amount of time.

Code:

km_buddy_distance

BUDDY_MEDIUM, BUDDY_SHOULDER, BUDDY_BIG, BUDDY_FLYING

buddy_candy_awarded
