Dragon Fang
# Method Repeatable?
1 Meteor Falls – Wild held item on wild Bagons or Druddigons (5% chance) Yes

Dragon Fangs can only be obtained as held items taken from wild Bagons or Druddigons, who both have a 5% chance of carrying one.

Both Pokémon can be found in Meteor Falls:

  • Bagon can be encountered in a basement room through standard walking. You will need both HM03 Surf and HM05 Waterfall to access this location.
  • Druddigon can be encountered anywhere in the cave, but only through the DexNav and after obtaining the National Pokédex.

Location

The easiest way to obtain Dragon Fangs is by stealing them from a wild Bagon using a Pokémon that knows the move Thief.

Through just walking around, there is a 35% chance of encountering a Bagon in a small room in the basement floor of Meteor Falls.

But before going to the location, make sure you have a Pokémon that can use both HM03 Surf and HM05 Waterfall.

In this basement room, walk around until you encounter a Bagon. Each wild Bagon has a 5% chance of carrying a Dragon Fang, so it can take some time to farm any of them.

Uses

The Dragon Fang is a held item that boosts the power of the holder’s Dragon-type moves by 20%.

Note: In Generation II and III, the Dragon Fang only increased the power of Dragon-type moves by 10%. But from Generation IV onwards, the power boost was increased to 20%.

Incidentally, you can also obtain a Dragon-type TM move (TM02 Dragon Claw) in the same basement room where you can find wild Bagon. Just head to the northernmost part of the room across the water.
