Will Dragon Dance move affect Dragon Claw move in Fire Red?

Question

I have a Dragonite with this move set:
Dragon Claw
Fire Punch
Earthquake
Dragon Dance

The description of Dragon Dance states that it is "A mystic, powerful dance that boosts the user’s Attack and Speed stats.", and as far as I know, Dragon Type moves are Special Attack from Gen I to Gen III.

will Dragon Dance move affect Dragon Claw move in Fire Red?

you pretty much answered your own question.

Answer 1

No it won't.

Prior Gen 4, Dragon type moves all used to derive their power from the Special Attack stat, and Dragon Dance does not increase that.

Hope I helped!
