* In the first season of the {{pkmn|anime}} and during much of [[Generation I]], the Rock-type was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by {{type|Electric}} attacks. This was likely due to the fact that at the time, most Rock-type Pokémon (namely the {{p|Geodude}} and {{p|Rhyhorn}} evolution lines, and {{p|Onix}}) were part Ground-type and thus immune to Electric-type moves. However, the only non-Ground Rock-type Pokémon around at the time (the then five [[Fossil]] Pokémon) were actually weak to them. | * In the first season of the {{pkmn|anime}} and during much of [[Generation I]], the Rock-type was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by {{type|Electric}} attacks.

* Most [[Fossil]] Pokémon are either part or solely Rock-type. This is most likely due to the placement of real fossils in rock formations, as well as the process by which fossils are created. | * Most [[Fossil]] Pokémon are either part or solely Rock-type.
