That mean you can choose 1 walking buddy with you as you walk along (although it will be appear with you on the map as you walk) and you will earn some candy of the Pokémon that you choose walking with you.
You can choose your buddy in your own screen under Buddy (this is only in the latest update version).
Depending on the type of Pokémon, it will award you the candy on a certain destance. For Pikachu it was 1 candy for every 1Km. This would be great for those to hardly find Pikachu anywhere.
However if you are looking for Charmander to walk with you it would be 3Km for a candy. Choosing any of it's evolve kind will not affect the number of candy that you get tho. So if you have a Charmeleon or Charizard it would still be 3Km walk.
If you have a buddy, you will see it's icon beside you and the blue circle indicate the percentage to it's full candy reward.
This update do give players some edge as now instead of catching which very much depend if you actually see the Pokémon in the game, you can now just catch 1 and start to earn candy for yourself which can take more time. But hey it is better than not knowing where to find them or not right?
