Who else likes fossil pokemon?
Who's your favorite and why?
What kind of fossil pokemon are you looking forward to in the future?
I'm raising a Tyrunt and Tirtouga can't decide which i like best

>>25739361
Tyrantrum is the only one I've really used extensively. Named him Sharptooth in Y. Motherfucker tore shit up, I loved him.

They're fucking great. Cranidos and Aerodactyl are both in my top 20 favorite mons.

Kabutops
Bird thingy
tortuga (?)
tyrantrum

Those were the ones I remember I picked and were my homies. been so long and I'm terrible with names tho. cant remember which I picked from the other gens and didn't really like them anyways.

Next fossil pokemon should be electric/rock and should be based off a sabertooth tiger

Or a fairy/ground type based off of a dodo

I've always liked Bastiodon and have desperately wanted it to be better each gen to use

A paleontology/archaeology theme team is something I've wnated to do for a while now

I had the biggest mindfuck when I was a kid and realized that Armaldo's eyes weren't those red things on the head.

He looks so derpy now.

an obvious choice is a Raptor pokemon. Maybe make it Rock/Dark type.

Personally I'd love to see an Ankylosaur or a Stegosaur, especially if they give them out of nowhere types like they did Aurorus. I could see the Ankylosaur being a rock/electric type, with electric spikes all over it. (dat ground weakness doh)
The stegosaur should be a rock/fire type using its plates like solar panels.

Hell what about a rock/fighting caveman?

Rock normal... Whatever the fuck this thing is

I don't think we have to go prehistoric anything extinct would worl nicely
>>
>>25739757
>Rock/Normal
Sabretooth Tiger
>Rock/Poison
One of those crazy huge ancient snakes (yes, I know snakes that large were like boa constrictors are not venomous, but I don't really care)
>Rock/Ghost
I really can't think up a good one for this.
>Rock/Electric
A dimetrodon or a stegosaurus, which uses its frills/plates to harness and store electrical energy.
>>
>>25739757

I feel like Rock/Ghost should be some sort of haunted ancient artifact rather than an animal.
>>
Cradily is best.

>>25739757
>Rock/Poison
Some kind of ancient insect or spider. Or possibly something based on the extremely inaccurate Dilophosaurus with the spitpoison.
>>
Holy shit I just realized that Gen 2 did not have any new fossil Pokemon. That's bizarre...
>>
>>25739856
>Rock/Ghost
Tasmanian Tiger. Does it still exist? Oooohhhh
>>
>>25739757
>>25739757
okay this one might be a stretch but how about an ape like rock/ghost fossil. The basis being that it is the 'missing link' pokemon.
Since it was ghostly it rarely left fossils, making it seem to be a myth, or totally missing from the fossil record.

I liked the fossils in gen 1 3 and 5, don't like the 4/6 fossils.

My favorite fossil pokemon is Archen.

>>25739757
I want a fucking Rock/Electric Deinonychus.
>>
>>25740173
How do you not like gen 6 fossils?? They're some of the best in desgin... And the night day concept was cool
>>
>>25740241
Tyrunt and Tyrantrum are okay, but the Aurorus line look like fucking neopets.
>>
>>25739856
I'd like a Rock/Electric stegosaurus that uses its plates to store solar energy. Would fit perfectly in Sun/Moon.
>>
>>25740241
Auror_ is awful. its like a weird doll you find at busch gardens.
It should have been an icy stegosaurus with frozen plates and spikes
>>

My Tyrantrum was a male, yes

Instead of a full dino skeleton, how about a dinosaur with some parts of its body intact while other parts are skeletonized.

I'd prefer a saber-tooth tiger mon to be a counterpart to Mamoswine. So just make it an ancient mon that never went extinct. Plus that way we still get two new fossil mon.
>>
>>25739361
Tyrantrum is my favorite. I'd like to shift from Rock-Something types and do Ice-something Ice Age mammals though.
>>
>>25739856
>Rock/Ghost
Yamask and Cofagrigus should have covered it.
>>
>>25740404
Something like that. Though I was thinking more along the lines of exposed bones in random places. Like half the tail has meat, and the other half is just bone. One arm is normal, the other is bones, etc.
>>
>>25739361
Archeops and Aurorus are some of my all time favorite pokemon, too bad gen 6 managed to fuck up both of them.
>>
>>25740471
As cool as that sounds itd be too graphic for pokemon i think
>>
>>25740490
It sounds that way on paper, but I think you could easily do that without being graphic at all.
>>
I'd like to see a speedy physical Rock/Electric Velociraptor with tough claws.
>>
>>25739361

Honestly aside from the gen 4 ones I've used each and every one competitively at some point. Some of them are held back by the mandatory rock type GF seems to think they all need. It makes sense on some of them (mainly the gen 1 ones and cradily) but then I look at aurorus and wonder wtf the point is.

If aurorus, bastiodon, and armaldo had a different type I feel like all three could succeed to some degree.....hell I'd even be fine with them just throwing dragon on most of the fuckers (dragon or bug makes perfect sense on almost all of them)

I like Archen and Aerodactyl the most but i've never really used either of them. Out of the ones i've used i'd have to say Cradily

I'd love to see more primal takes on standard animals like Tirtouga though, really hated how ugly the gen 4/gen 6 fossils were.

Why don't we have a good pterosaur pokemon. Aerodactyl is cool and all but there should be one that's less dragon more pterosaur
>>
We had a fossil thread last night, and there were two suggestions I'd love to see in the future: a rock/fighting australopithecus that evolves into a caveman/neanderthal, and a rock/water prehistoric whale. Make it an ambulocetus that evolves into a basilosaurus, and make it super fast with access to water spout so it at least has something to set it apart from the other rock/water fossil mons

Rock/Normal should be a mastodon or some other sort of extinct elephant

Rock/Electric should be a spinosaurus with the gimmick of having it's back sail thing be an electrical conductor
>>
I have a shiny Tyrantrum that I love very much.
>>
i like archeops and carracosta
>>
Yo, I fucking love fossils so much, it's just a shame so many have crappy typing.

I was looking forward to Tyrantrum so much, but in retrospect I'm not really a fan of his design. I do like the Gen VI fossils but not as much as previous mons.

My top would def have to be Kabutops, Archeops, and Rampardos. I love Rampardos so much.
>>
>>25740915
Yes please.
>>
>>25743838
I liked Tyrantrum more after using it in-game, as it's official art seems really sorta stout and squished in compared to the model which is proportioned more like an actual Tyrannosaurus

Nemicolopterus, its the smallest known pterosaur. Could be good for Rock/Fairy type with access to a lot of flying and possibly dragon moves.
