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}}.
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.
