The '''Old Amber''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ひみつのコハク|Himitsu no Kohaku}}''' ''Secret Amber'') is a [[Fossil]] which can be regenerated into {{p|Aerodactyl}}.

==In the games==

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}}.

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}}.

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}}.

 

In {{4v|Black|White|2}}, 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}}.

Rocks purchased in {{DL|Join Avenue|Antique Shop}}s of Black 2 and White 2's [[Join Avenue]] may contain Old Amber.

In {{pkmn|X and Y}}, Old Amber can be found randomly in [[Glittering Cave]] by {{m|Rock Smash|smashing rocks}}. If brought to the Fossil Laboratory, Old Amber can be regenerated into an {{p|Aerodactyl}}. Alternatively, they can be sold at [[Poké Mart]]s for {{PDollar}}500.

The Old Amber appeared in ''[[PW27|Fossil + Pokémon = Aerodactyl!?]]'' where it was eventually revived in an Aerodactyl after [[Team Rocket]] broke into the lab.

{{adv|Red}} received an Old Amber from {{adv|Giovanni}} in [[Pewter City]] in ''[[PS023|Make Way for Magmar!]]''. Later, in ''[[PS026|Holy Moltres]]'', following [[Blaine]]'s instructions, he revived the Old Amber into an [[Aero]]dactyl at the [[Pokémon Lab]] on [[Cinnabar Island]], making it one of his main team members.

*{{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.
