→‎Other cards depicting Fossils: Just kidding! One more. I missed Armor Fossil Shieldon. Yes that's the name of the card.
(→‎In the TCG: Last one but I realized if I call out Mysterious Fossil's HP, should do the rest. Also new paragraph for attempts to reference Fossil Pokémon.)

{{TCG|Noble Victories}} introduced this mechanic, along with the {{TCG|Cover Fossil|Cover}} and {{TCG|Plume Fossil|Plume}} Fossils for {{TCG|Tirtouga}} and {{TCG|Archen}}. The cards were reprinted in {{TCG|Plasma Blast}} along with the new {{TCG|Root Fossil Lileep}}. This card incorporates {{TCG|Lileep}} into the Restored Pokémon mechanics, using the name of the Pokémon as a suffix to avoid conflicting with the older Fossil Trainer card named {{TCG|Root Fossil}}.

It also marked the first time one of the Fossil Pokémon was printed without the others that are part of the same Generation.


The XY Series continued to use Restored Pokémon and these Fossil mechanics, with the {{TCG|Jaw Fossil|Jaw}}, and {{TCG|Sail Fossil|Sail}} Fossil cards of {{TCG|Furious Fists}} working with {{TCG|Tyrunt}}, and {{TCG|Amaura}}. {{TCG|Fates Collide}} brought back the Generation I Fossil Pokémon, with {{TCG|Dome Fossil Kabuto}}, {{TCG|Helix Fossil Omanyte}}, and {{TCG|Old Amber Aerodactyl}} cards. Lastly, {{TCG|Steam Siege}} included a {{TCG|Claw Fossil Anorith}}, to work with {{TCG|Anorith}} and match the Root Fossil Lilleep. No cards for the [[Skull Fossil|Skull]] and [[Armor Fossil]]s were released to work with the Restored Pokémon mechanics, and the Sun & Moon Series returned to the traditional Fossil Trainer card mechanics.
