    In gen 1 and its remakes you got to pick from two fossils after beating a Super Nerd in Mt. Moon. Which fossil do you find yourself picking most often?

    I choose Dome the most because I love Kabutops. He's just such a cool looking Pokémon. (I'm gonna get a lot of slack after the whole Twitch Plays Pokémon thing lol)

    I just chose the Helix Fossil because I didn't really care which one I got, so I walked forwards and took the first one that was there, which was the Helix because it was on the right. I also don't have a favourite between the two; my favourite Gen I fossil is definitely Aerodactyl.

    I usually pick the helix fossil, though both are quite good design wise. The real problem is that by the time I get to cinnibar I have my team settled, with no room for a new level 5 noob.

    I used to pick Dome because (paraphrasing 10-year-old me) who would want some stupid snail over a horseshoe crab with swords for arms!

    Lately, however, I've reversed my decision. Omastar is one cool Pokémon, and I get a kick out of naming it Cthulhu every time. Every time.

    Praise helix!

    In all seriousness, when I first played Pokémon FRLG, I didn't know what the difference between the two was, and I didn't really care. I believe I chose the helix fossil because of the name, however. Also, I never did figure out how to restore the fossils as a child. Nowadays, I prefer Omanyte and Omastar a little bit of Kabuto and Kabutops, and I don't have a solid reason as to why, but I have typically picked the Helix Fossil in the recent past.

    Lol, it's pretty funny that I think the real reason why people choose the Helix Fossil over the Dome Fossil is because of Twitch Plays Pokémon. Sadly, I like picking the Dome Fossil because I think Kabutops looked cooler. It's what I usually choose whenever I play the Gen 1 games. Never cared for Omastar all that much.

    I never cared. But now i do. I always pick helix because i like. It has good design and is cool according to me. First i chose helix because of no reason but afterwards i started liking it.

    I was more of a Dome fossil kind of person. Kabutops was just too cool to pass up.

    I always chose helix, because I thought the idea of a Pokémon snail like creature was so cool.
    He Omanyte/Omaster looks a lot better designed than Kabuto/Kabutops personally.
    And "moveset wise"/ kabutops was gosh darn awful too.

    I have an endearing obsession with shelled creatures as well.

    Honestly I always went with Dome. I never used the fossils lol since I didn't feel like raising them by the time I could actually revive them, but I did prefer how Kabutops looked. I have a fondness for scythes of any type.
