Fossil Pokémon in Sun & Moon

Everything behind Sun & Moon’s 8 fossil Pokémon comes from the Konikoni City shop, one of each per player. Sun sells Cranidos’s Skull Fossil and Tirtouga’s Cover Fossil, while Moon stocks the Armor and Plume Fossils for Shieldon and Archen. Take them to the Fossil Restoration Center on Route 8.

The list

All 8 fossil Pokémon in Sun & Moon, across 4 fossil lines

Cranidos grows into Rampardos, Shieldon into Bastiodon, Tirtouga into Carracosta and Archen into Archeops. Alola adds no line of its own, so the shop holds only these Sinnoh and Unova fossils.

Gen 4 fossil lines (Sinnoh)

2

Rampardos stays pure Rock while Bastiodon picks up Steel, and both evolve at Lv. 30, seven levels before the Unova pair.

Gen 5 fossil lines (Unova)

2

Carracosta adds Water to its Rock typing and Archeops adds Flying, so your version also decides which partner type your Unova revival brings.
