You can only buy one item per day so it is good to visit daily. Talk to the merchant to check yesterday's, tomorrow's, and today's Bargain of the Day.

How to Use Dragon Fang

Give it to a Dragon-type Pokemon

Dragon Fang boosts the power of Dragon-type moves by 20%. This makes it a great tool for offensive Dragon-types such as Dragapult.

However, Regidrago is the most common user. This is because its ability, Dragon Maw, has the same effect and they stack.

Dragon Fang vs Choice Item

For Dragon-type attackers, you'd want to pack as much power as possible on their moves. You may get lost in choosing between Dragon Fang or either Choice Band or Choice Specs.

Advantage Disadvantage
Dragon Fang ・20% damage boost to Dragon-type moves
・Can use all moves
・Only boost Dragon-type moves
Choice Band or Choice Specs ・50% boost to Atk/Sp.Atk ・Locked to one move

The right item to use will depend on how you will utilize your Pokemon's moveset.

If your Pokemon will only rely on one Dragon-type move, then a Choice item will be the better option. If you think your Pokemon needs to use a coverage or any other move somewhere down the road, then let it hold Dragon Fang.
