**Only those three cards, as well as future {{TCG|Omanyte}}, {{TCG|Kabuto}}, and {{TCG|Aerodactyl}} that don't evolve from Mysterious Fossil, are affected; a card such as {{TCG ID|Base Set|Pokémon Breeder|76}} or {{TCG ID|EX Sandstorm|Rare Candy|88}} can be used to play {{TCG|Omastar}} and {{TCG|Kabutops}} from any and all sets due to being able to evolve from ''any'' Omanyte or Kabuto, respectively. | |||
**Additionally, the Reconstruction Poké-POWER is not restricted in which Omanyte and Kabuto it can search for, as that power is not bound by evolution mechanics. As such, Buried Fossil can still search for Omanyte and Kabuto it can't evolve into. | |||
