However, {{p|Omanyte}},{{p|Kabuto}} and {{p|Aerodactyl}} are prominently featured in the puzzles located at [[Ruins of Alph]].

In addition, [[Brock]], being a fossil enthusiast, has an {{p|Omastar}} and a {{p|Kabutops}} in this generation's games, as well as the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Stadium games]] in [[Gym Leader Castle]]. While he has yet to use them again since Generation II, his fondness of fossils is referenced again in the next generation of games when a man in [[Mt. Moon]] mentions that Brock helps excavate fossils at the location. | ||

In [[Pokémon Colosseum]]'s Story Mode, various characters use the Hoenn fossils, including Relicanth. The most famous of these users are [[Miror B.]] and [[Gonzap]], of whom each has at some points an Armaldo on his team. In [[Pokémon XD]], this relative ubiquity is cut considerably, with Lileep and Anorith only being seen once and their evolutions - not at all. That said, Relicanth deserves special mention as a member of [[Zook]]'s team. | |||

In [[Sinnoh]], when players travel [[the Underground|underground]], they can find most of the fossils by digging, along with several other rare items, potentially.

Crandios, {{p|Rampardos}} and Shieldon can also be separately found when battling three lesser-known trainers; this is done to account for coverage of seen Pokémon in the [[Sinnoh Pokédex]]. In the post-Elite Four stage of the games, Aerodactyl can be spotted with another trainer. | ||

In the anime, most fossil Pokémon are in fact, not extinct, but have simply been hibernating underground for millions of years, as seen in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', ''[[EP089|Shell Shock]]'' and ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]''. However, [[Professor Proctor]] and [[Gary]] have both used research to directly revive fossil Pokémon, as seen in ''[[AG102|Where's Armaldo?]]'' and ''[[H015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl]]'' respectively. | In the anime, most fossil Pokémon are in fact, not extinct, but have simply been hibernating underground for millions of years, as seen in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', ''[[EP089|Shell Shock]]'' and ''[[EP163|Fossil Fools]]''.
