Pokemon-go – Anyone else not getting bonus XP for “Nice!”, “Great!” or “Excellent!” throws

This is another issue that many continually experience. There have been multiple occasions where I transfer a Pokemon, but I do not receive the candy as I should. Typically when this happens, it occurs during a server connection blip and something goes terrible wrong.

I have noticed that transfers appears to be more affective while connected to a WI-FI network rather than 3G/4G Mobile Data, so it may be in your best interest to wait until you have a reliable connection before transfering.

Unfortunately, as with every other issue, the only thing we can do is wait for Niantic to finally get around to fixing all these bugs.

As far as I understand, it is based on whether the ball was landing in the circle (if it was there) and what size it was (if it was there). So if you throw it whilst the Pokemon is attacking, you should still aim for the middle. And have the circle locked in small.
