Legend has it that the Dragon's scale fell from a {{Dragon}}'s body a long, long time ago. A light green fossil that fits in the palm of your hand, it has mysterious powers and slightly increases your defensive power. Due to text restrictions, it was named '''D-Scale''' in the {{Game Boy Color}} remakes.
