The card has seen its fair share of wording changes, and even had its HP changed from 10 to 50 for the EX Legend Maker print for no apparent reason.

|set1=Fossil
The EX Sandstorm print was reworded to read as follows:

Trivia

Origin

Fossils are items in the Pokémon games that can be revived into Pokémon. The Dome Fossil and Helix Fossil appear in this card. However, the artwork depicts the Dome Fossil as the fossil of a Kabutops rather than a Kabuto. There are also some wing bones which could be related to Aerodactyl.
