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.
