Kabutops, Omastar, Old Dome Fossil from “Pokemon Card 151!”

By: Water Pokémon Master · Posted Posted onMay 1, 2023 at 9:33 AM · 33 Comments

Omanyte, Omastar, Kabuto, Kabutops, and Old Dome Fossil have been revealed from Pokemon Card 151. The cards were shown at a museum exhibit and snapped by @tomo_asobi.

Helix Fossil hasn't been revealed yet, likely because the lord cometh when you least expect it.

Thanks goes to Bangiras for the translations!

I'm currently not playing so Idk about current standard format but... IF rapid strike keckleon meets this kabutops you are in front of a basic that deals 360 every turn no matter what. just ensure a tool to protect them a bit and thats it

true, but dragon types have no weakness. other than that, if you have a reliable energy acceleration, this could actually be a fun gimmick deck.
 
This is the first new "Evolves Into" card since the e-series, right?

Does that mean it can evolve into any Kabuto, even the "Restored" one from Fates Collide?

If it says it evolves into Kabuto, then that means ANY Kabuto, including the Restored Kabuto from the BWXY series. This also includes any Kabuto that evolve from Mysterious Fossil or Unidentified Fossil.
 
Kabutops is the first Pokemon to have a one-sided x4 weakness ability.
As for the Fossil, idk, Kabuto clearly states it evolves from an Old Dome Fossil, so this feels more like a reminder? There's also no additional explanation, unlike on Buried Fossil. But it's also a very unnecessary reminder, so perhaps there are additional rules to go with it.
 
Omastar looks like it could be funny way to force 50/50s if we get a way to consistently confuse the opponent. Also apparently Dome Fossil has had a tail since gen 1, even though Kabuto doesn't. Where did it go
 
Would Old Dome Fossil/Kabutops be GLC eligible? Since it counts as a C basic, it technically wouldn't be allowed in an F type deck. Seeing how it's a trainer card though, I'm not sure how this works.
 
okay, with the ability, this fossil has effectivly 90 hp. kabuto also has 90 hp.
a fossil has the sam amount of HP as an actual Pokemon. a Fossil! that is not a pokemon itself

it would be. lillies pokedoll is a collorles and is legal. same aplies here.

what matters is if a pokemon (not energy or trainer) has the correct type symbol in the top right corner in difference with an ability that ads a typing
 
We can finally chuck frickin’ Unidentified Fossil out the heckin’ window lol!!!

By the way, the lord is spelled “LORD”. It is quite disrespectful to spell God’s title in lowercase.

It's not a C pokémon, it's an item card.
 
I think it's there so that any Kabuto can evolve into it (like the old Baby Pokemon), even ones that evolve from other types of Fossils (like Unidentified Fossil or Restored pokemon).

What's your source on this? There has never been a card that evolves "into" a Stage 1 before, let alone a card like Kabuto which has evolved from over 9000 different cards over the years.

Buried Fossil can evolve into Kabuto, Omanyte, and Aerodactyl, all of which have been printed as Stage 1 cards.

I got ahead of myself. Buried Fossil exists, but back then there was only one card for Kabuto and pals to evolve from. I'm questioning why you would be able to play the Restored Kabuto on this when there is no evolutionary path for it to get into play.
