Read more ↓Omastar is a dual Water/Rock-type Fossil Pokémon, known as the "Spiral Pokémon," first introduced in Generation I. It evolves from Omanyte when restored from a Helix Fossil, a prehistoric artifact found in the Kanto region. Omastar's distinctive spiral shell and tentacles are adaptations for its ancient marine life, where it was a formidable predator in the primordial oceans. Its powerful jaws and shell allowed it to crush the shells of its prey, primarily shellfish and crustaceans. Despite its menacing appearance, Omastar is a relic from a bygone era, brought back to life through scientific means. In the games, it is one of two fossil Pokémon available in the original Red, Blue, and Yellow versions, alongside Kabutops. Its unique typing gives it both strengths and weaknesses, making it an interesting choice for trainers. Omastar's deep connection to ancient history and its role as a revived fossil Pokémon contribute to its significant cultural presence within the Pokémon franchise, symbolizing the mysteries of the past and the potential of scientific revival. Its design is inspired by ammonites, an extinct group of marine mollusks, further cementing its prehistoric appeal.
