Why are fossil Pokemon all Rock-types?

Jul. 8, 2015

Every single fossil Pokemon is rock-type, why?I understand that they’re rock because they are from fossils, but why does this mean all of them have to be rock-type?are they only rock-type because they are revived fossils? if a pikachu dies and gets fossilized and revived, will it be Electric/Rock?

Pleaselog inorregisterto add a comment.

Yes, it is all because they are fossils.

I mean, think about it. If you died and became fossilized,even ifyou were revived, you would still havesomeof the fossilizedness (lol that’s not a word) right?

For Pokémon, their “fossilizedness” is their Rock typing.

Yes it is just because of them being fossilized.

According to Bulbapedia their rock type status might be a side effect of being fossilized or their origins, otherwise it’s unknown why they have dual types except Craniados.Source: Bulbapedia
