Is there an item or Ability that boosts biting moves (such as Thunder Fang, Crunch, etc)?

Jul. 27, 2021

I can’t find any items or Pokémon in any games I have with one of those abilities.

There is an ability calledStrong Jawthat boosts the power of biting moves by 50%. This means the base power of the move, not your attack stat when you use a biting move.

The list of biting moves are:

BiteCrunchThunder FangFire FangIce FangFishious RendHyper FangJaw Lock (Did not know this was a move)Psychic FangsPoison Fang

This ability did not exist until X and Y, and prior to ORAS was the signature ability of Tyrantrum.

There is no item that boosts biting move power,but there are plenty of items that boost Physical attack, as all of the biting moves are physical. Life Orb, Choice Band, Muscle Band, etc.
