Omanyte (Japanese: オムナイト Omnite) is a dual-type Rock/Water Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It is resurrected from a Helix Fossil and evolves into Omastar starting at level 40.

Biology

Omanyte is a small Pokémon similar to an ammonite. It has a sky blue body with ten tentacles and a pale yellow, helix-spiraled shell on its back. The shell's rim has two circular indents where Omanyte's large saucer-like eyes protrude. If attacked or threatened, it quickly withdraws into its hard shell.

Omanyte is considered extinct, although it can be revived from Fossils. Its fossils have been excavated in areas that were once oceans long ago. Omanyte regulated its buoyancy by storing and releasing air within its shell and controlled direction by twisting its tentacles. While Omanyte fed on plankton, it was preyed on by Archeops and Carracosta.

Major appearances

Two Omanyte debuted in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon, where Ash encountered them along with all of the other Generation I Fossil Pokémon. A dynamite blast woke up the Fossil Pokémon living deep beneath Grampa Canyon. They chased Ash and Team Rocket around until an Aerodactyl showed up and scared them off.

Multiple Omanyte and their evolved form, Omastar, appeared in Fossil Fools. They were discovered to be living in the Ruins of Alph and moved to a museum.

An Omanyte appeared in Dealing With Defensive Types! in the Canalave Gym. It caught Team Rocket trying to steal food from the Gym kitchen whilst Ash was having his Gym battle with Byron, and attacked them with Water Gun, sending them blasting off.

An Omanyte appeared in a fantasy in A Ruin with a View.

An Omanyte was revived from a Fossil in A Gruff Act to Follow!. It reappeared in the next episode, where it was seen along with several other Pokémon within the habitat created for the revived Fossil Pokémon.

Origin

Omanyte is based on the ammonite.

Name origin

Omanyte is a phonetic anagram of ammonite, the creature on which it is based.

Omnite is a combination of オウムガイ ōmugai (nautilus) and ammonite.
