For each of your Benched Basic Pokémon, search your deck for a card that evolves from that Pokémon and put it onto that Pokémon to evolve it. Then, shuffle your deck.
which reminded me of the original text of Rare Candy where the "evolves from" phrase was loosened a bit.
Rare Candy (Sandstorm) said:
Choose 1 of your Basic Pokémon in play. If you have a Stage 1 or Stage 2 card that evolves from that Pokémon in your hand, put that card on the Basic Pokémon. (This counts as evolving that Pokémon.)

Does Grand Bloom GX allow you search for any later Stage (potentially including a "Stage 3" BREAK) or only the immediate evolution (a Stage 1 or potentially a Mega or BREAK)?
Unlike Evosoda and Wally, the attack has no effect on your benched Stage 1 Pokémon, which made me think perhaps it shares some of the old Rare Candy's effect.

No, you're reading too much into the text.
If they had wanted you to be able to skip an evolution stage, it would state that very clearly.
You only get to move up to the next stage (or Break or Mega).
