The Choice Band is an item in Pokémon that can be given to a Pokémon on your team to hold. During a battle, it will boost the selected Pokémon's attack stat by 50%, with the drawback of only being able to use the first attacking move selected.

The item often finds its use in competitive play. Still, it can be used as a valuable item to either mend a Pokémon's subpar attack stat or enhance a strong physical attacker's already high attack. In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, trainers can obtain several of these items for use in their gameplay experience.

Mesagoza has a shopping area before the players walk up the stairs to the academy. In west Mesagoza, close to the gate on the left side of the city, the player can find a store called Delibird Presents. This store sells battle items, Poké Balls and many other items that players will find useful throughout their journey in Paldea.

After completing the game's story, players will be able to find the Choice Band, Choice Scarf and Choice Specs (among other items) available for purchase under the "Battle Items" section at Delibird Presents in Mesagoza.

These three items all come with a price of 100,000 Pokédollars each, so while players can purchase multiple of each item, it will take time to save up, even after defeating many trainers to purchase any of these items.

After purchasing the Choice Band, players select the item from their bag and assign it to one of their Pokémon to hold, and they will see an increased physical damage output from that Pokémon in battle.
