The '''Old Amber''' (Japanese: '''ひみつのコハク''' ''Secret Amber'') is a [[Fossil]] introduced in [[Generation I]] that can be regenerated into {{p|Aerodactyl}}.
 
The Old Amber is different from the other Fossils, being a type of fossilized substance rather than a Fossil named by its appearance; however, the Aerodactyl skeleton in Pewter City Museum implies that it does have its own fossilized remains.

==In the games==
===Effect===
In the Generation I and III games, Old Amber is a [[key item]] obtained in a back room of the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], from one of the scientists, who believes that it could be resurrected. {{m|Cut}} is required to access the room, as it is blocked by a cuttable tree. It is given to the {{player}} by one of the scientists working there. If brought to the [[Pokémon Lab]] on [[Cinnabar Island]], Old Amber can be regenerated into an {{p|Aerodactyl}}.
====Passive effect====
If brought to the one of the following locations, Old Amber can be regenerated into an {{p|Aerodactyl}}.

In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, it is no longer a key item, being demoted to simply an item. It can be found by mining in [[the Underground]] after obtaining the [[National Pokédex]]. If brought to the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]], Old Amber can be regenerated into an {{p|Aerodactyl}}.
=====Generation I and III=====
In the Generation I and III games, Old Amber is a [[Key Item]].


In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Old Amber can be found randomly by {{m|Rock Smash|smashing rocks}} at the [[Ruins of Alph]]. If brought to the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], Old Amber can be regenerated into an {{p|Aerodactyl}}.
=====Generation IV onward=====
From Generation IV onward, Old Amber is no longer a Key Item, and is a normal item. Therefore, multiples of them can be obtained, they can be [[held item|held]], and sent to other players via [[trade|trading]].


In {{2v2|Black|White}}, a {{tc|Worker}} in the [[Ice Rock]] room of [[Twist Mountain]] hands out a random fossil from previous generations, including Old Amber, once per day. If brought to the [[Nacrene Gym|Nacrene Museum]], Old Amber can be regenerated into an {{p|Aerodactyl}}.

*{{wp|Amber}} is fossilized tree resin commonly found with insects trapped inside of it. The Old Amber is based on the theory of extracting DNA from the blood still preserved inside the insect to bring back past lifeforms. In real life, however, amber cannot preserve DNA.

* It is the only Pokémon Fossil that does not have an alternative choice to form a pair.

* It is the only Pokémon Fossil that has appeared in [[Pokémon Adventures]].
* The mosquito seen in the first generation artwork is a rare case of a [[Animals in the Pokémon world|real life animal]] in the Pokémon world.
*While the Old Amber is the only fossil absent from [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], {{p|Aerodactyl}} can still be obtained when received as a [[Gift Pokémon|gift]] at [[Seafolk Village]].
