Omanyte

Omanyte in the anime

In Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon, Ash encountered multiple Omanyte along with other Generation I Fossil Pokémon after a dynamite blast woke them from their dormant state beneath Grampa Canyon, and they chased Ash and Team Rocket until an Aerodactyl arrived and scared them off. In Fossil Fools, multiple Omanyte living in the Ruins of Alph were moved to a museum. In Dealing With Defensive Types!, an Omanyte caught Team Rocket trying to steal food from the Canalave Gym kitchen and used Water Gun to send them blasting off.

Omanyte's cards by era

Omanyte was introduced in Fossil, followed by Neo Discovery, a Neo Destiny Dark Omanyte, Legendary Collection, and Skyridge in the WOTC era.

The EX era carried Sandstorm, Legend Maker, a delta species card in Holon Phantoms, and Power Keepers, and the Diamond & Pearl era added Majestic Dawn and Arceus.

The XY and Sun & Moon eras each carried a single Uncommon in Fates Collide and Team Up, and the Scarlet & Violet era brought a 151 Uncommon and illustration rare pairing, the illustration rare by Yano Keiji.
