Description	This passionate Gym Leader has a fixation on focus. However, she sometimes wonders if she should play it cooler as an Ice-type Pokémon user.

Candice (Japanese: スズナ Suzuna) is a Pokémon Trainer in Pokémon Masters EX, based on the character of the same name in the core series games. She forms a sync pair with Abomasnow. The sync pair can be obtained through the sync pair scout. The pair's potential can be upgraded to 6★ EX from December 25, 2021, which unlocks Candice's EX Style.

Candice also forms a sync pair with her Froslass. This pair can be obtained by exchaning a BP Sync Pair Voucher and was first made available on August 28, 2022. This pair could be raised to 6★ EX beginning on March 29, 2023, though this pair lacks an EX style.
