Read more ↓Omastar, the Spiral Pokémon, is a dual Water/Rock-type fossil Pokémon from the Kanto region, introduced in Generation I. It evolves from Omanyte when restored from a Helix Fossil. Omastar is characterized by its large, spiraled shell and numerous tentacles, which it uses to capture prey. Its natural habitat is believed to be ancient oceans, where it was a formidable predator. In the Pokémon games, Omastar is often obtained by reviving the Helix Fossil, one of the two fossil choices available in the first generation games. Its unique type combination gives it resistances to Fire, Ice, Flying, and Normal-type attacks, but also makes it doubly weak to Grass-type moves. In the anime, Omastar made appearances, often depicted as a powerful ancient Pokémon. Its design is based on ammonites, an extinct group of marine mollusks, adding to its mystique and appeal as a prehistoric creature. Omastar’s role in the Pokémon universe often highlights the themes of ancient life and the wonders of scientific revival.
