Read more ↓Omastar is a dual Water/Rock-type Fossil Pokémon, first introduced in Generation I. It is the final evolution of Omanyte, which evolves from the Helix Fossil. Omastar is known for its large, spiraled shell and numerous tentacles, which it uses to capture prey. Its ancient lineage connects it to the prehistoric oceans, where it is believed to have been a formidable predator. In the Pokémon games, Omastar is typically revived from the Helix Fossil, giving players a glimpse into the distant past. Its typing provides it with unique defensive and offensive capabilities, being strong against Fire, Ground, and Rock types, but vulnerable to Grass and Electric attacks. Omastar's appearance in the anime often highlights its role as an ancient creature, sometimes brought back to life through scientific means. Culturally, Omastar, along with its pre-evolution Omanyte, gained significant popularity and meme status through the "Lord Helix" phenomenon, where fans of a Twitch Plays Pokémon stream deified the Helix Fossil, making Omastar a surprisingly iconic Pokémon.
