How to get the Dragon Scale

The Dragon Scale is obtained from spinning Pokestops and Gyms. There is a very low drop chance of around 1% per spin to receive a Dragon Scale or any of the other evolution item, and there is an equal chance of obtaining each of the 5 currently available items.

There's no way to ensure that the Dragon Scale will drop, but with only 4 other items, there's a greater than 50% chance that you'll receive one once you've spun over 250 Pokéstops.
