Generation 5
Black, White, Black 2, White 2

A Pokémon that was resurrected from a fossil using modern science. It swam in ancient seas.

Generation 6
X

A prehistoric Pokémon that lived in the primordial sea, it swims by twisting its 10 tentacles about.

Y

Revived from an ancient fossil, this Pokémon uses air stored in its shell to sink and rise in water.

Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire

Omanyte is one of the ancient and long-since-extinct Pokémon that have been regenerated from fossils by people. If attacked by an enemy, it withdraws itself inside its hard shell.

Generation 7
Ultra Sun

Omanyte lived in the seas of antiquity. Its fossils have been found bearing bite marks from Archeops, so apparently Archeops preyed on it.

Ultra Moon

It was restored from an ancient fossil. Those Helix Fossils are excavated from areas that were once oceans long, long ago.
