Unova Fossils

I picked [3D='archen'] on my first playthrough, because I thought [3D='tirtouga'] looked silly
Although I have equal respect for both Pokémon evolution lines.
Personally, Archeops's Ability is not so bad as it's too frail to survive any kind of hit anyway. But I suppose even Sand Veil is better in comparison.

 

I didn't really use the fossils (or any fossils in general). However, Carracosta is the better choice imo because of how it doesn't have it's attack/sp attack stat when it's HP is low. LIKE WHAT KIND OF ABILITY IS THAT?

 

Even though Archeops's ability sucks, it's my favorite fossil. Acrobatics is OP hahaha. I use him any team I can!

 

I actually prefer Tirtouga. Its evolution Carracosta is really bulky, especially with Solid Rock, can abuse White Herb Shell Smash and just looks awesome. Yeah, it was on my original White team.

Plus, Tirtouga's so cute! I love it!

 

I prefer Tirtouga as well. Carracosta sweeps really well in NU and I like the design better. Also, Archeops looks ridiculous and has a stupid ability.

 

Giant blue turtle was what I called my card carracosta (titouga for the wins)

 

I like Carracosta. It has turtle swag and reminds me of Gamera. Archeops is cool too, just not as much. Both are equally useful in battle, they just serve different purposes. I've never used either in a playthrough.

 

I like Archeops' amazing animation in 3D xD It's like he has to try so hard to not drop like a brick. I'm pretty sure Carracosta would be the better choice, but it's not my personal favorite.

 

I never really use Fossils, but I chose Tirtouga because Turtles<3
Archeops has a cool design but a terrible ability ;n;

 

Archeops is really really fast and it hits hard, but its stupid ability hinders it. Even though it has a bad ability, I like Archeops.

 

As much as I love reptiles, I went with Archen/Archeops in White 1. I never actually used it, though, but I chose it because I already had a PC box full of Water-type Pokémon and planned on using either Kabutops, Vaporeon, or Starmie as my primary. That, and I do like Archen a little more in general, haha.

 

I like Archeops because of its 6th gen sprite. But in terms of 5th gen characteristics, it was quite useful in my White2 team I didn't really care about abilities or anything like that. lol.

 

I liked Tirtouga better, but for dex purposes I chose Archen... I hate Archeops ability so much, I don't want to use it ever again.

 

Archeops was my choose! its not so bad guys! focus sash with endeavor is the key

 

I like Tirtouga better (I think it's cute!), but it went unused due to my love of Samurott. Plus WHAT EVEN GAVE THEM THE IDEA FOR DEFEATIST!? "Oh, I know, let's give this Pokémon an Ability that literally works against them!"

 

Archeops is my personal favorite out of the two, I really love using it! Despite its ability, it's really strong and useful, and has helped me out in-game on so many occasions. I love sweeping Ghetsis with Archeops, since I just use an attack on his Cofagrigus and get Mummy instead of Defeatist, and then I just go to town on his entire team, haha.

 

I picked Tirtouga most times because I don't really like Archeops because of its design (as well as its evolution) and its ability defeatist. So Tirtouga has my vote XD

 

I picked Carracosta . I luv trtles. xD When i saw everyone got it i wanted to get it too i soft rested to get a shiny one.

 

I picked Tirtouga because it was the cuter of the two for me. I don't think I actually used either Carracosta or Archeops though, I ended up using other Pokémon instead. I don't really have much of an opinion on them P:
