## How to Obtain Fossils

In order to find Fossils you need to search for **Fossil Blocks** whilst mining underground, between Y-Level -64 and 100.

Upon mining a **Fossil Block** with a pickaxe, you will obtain 1 Covered Fossil. The number obtained can be increased through use of the Fortune enchantment.

The Fossil can be cleaned by being placed into a **Fossil Cleaner**, wiping off the dirt and revealing exactly what Fossil you have managed to find. With this clean Fossil, you can proceed with reviving it to get yourself the Ancient Pokemon.

## How to Revive Fossils

### Crafting the Fossil Machine

Now that you have collected one or multiple fossils, you can now go ahead and start reviving them. You will however need to craft a **Fossil Machine** in order to start this process. To do so, you will specifically need to make the 4 components that make up the machine. Recipe's for these are shown below:

#### Fossil Machine Top

#### Fossil Machine Tank

#### Fossil Machine Display

#### Fossil Machine Base

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/D7NlTVkLvioCehhHcf26" alt="" width="243"><figcaption><p>6x Aluminium Ingots</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Once you have crafted each of these items you'll now need to place them in a particular order within the crafting table to create the Fossil Machine itself.

### Operating the Fossil Machine

Now that you have all the items needed to revive a fossil lets go over the process. You will want to `Right Click` the Fossil onto the Fossil Machine, which will beging the ressurection procedure. The process will be displayed on front of the machine as shown below.

<figure><img src="/files/oomU4j63e9cyrOuazao9" alt="" width="188"><figcaption><p>Fossil Machine during the Revival Process</p></figcaption></figure>

From there it's ultimately just a waiting game. This **process will take a couple minutes minutes** but you'll know once it's complete as the display on your machine will mention such, as shown below:

<figure><img src="/files/st7E0cjcZZwioZbAkU5T" alt="" width="188"><figcaption><p>Fossil Machine after the Revival Process</p></figcaption></figure>

All you need to to now is `Right Click` onto the **Fossil Machine** with the **Pokeball** you wish to have your Pokemon in and it'll instantly go into your party or PC and that's the whole process. If you wish to revive more fossils you will need to keep giving it Organic Materials per fossil.

#### Gen 8 Fossil Pokemon  (Dracozolt, Arctozolt, Dracovish & Arctovish)&#x20;

For the Gen 8 Fossil Pokemon **you will need to combine two different fossils** in order to gain one of these pokemon unlike all other fossils which you only need the one. It's the same process when you `Right Click` onto the Fossil Machine to place it in, you'll just need to do it again for the corresponding Pokemon you want.&#x20;

You can use the table below to know which **Fossil Combinations are needed for the Respective Pokemon**:

* **Dracozolt \[***Electric/Dragon***]** \~ Fossilized Drake + Fossilized Bird
* **Arctozolt \[***Electric/Ice***]** \~ Fossilized Dino + Fossilized Bird
* **Dracovish \[***Water/Dragon***]** \~ Fossilized Drake + Fossilized Fish
* **Arctovish \[***Water/Ice***]** \~ Fossilized Dino + Fossilized Fish

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.mmorealms.gg/pixelmon-wiki/general-guides/complete-overview-of-fossils.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
