Collector Insights

Fossil Egg is a Trainer card from the Crossing the Ruins... set, released on July 7, 2000. It is numbered 55 and classified as an Uncommon rarity card. The card’s flavor text describes a mechanism where a player flips a coin, then either searches their deck for a card that evolves from Mysterious Fossil to place on their Bench or moves such a card from their hand to their Bench, treating it as a Basic Pokémon. The action requires the player to shuffle their deck if they searched it. The card’s theme color is a warm brown, matching the hexadecimal code #866e4d. It is illustrated by the artist CR CG gangs. This card introduces a strategic interaction centered around evolving Pokémon and managing the Bench.

Flip a coin. If heads, either search your deck for a card that evolves from Mysterious Fossil and put it on your Bench or put a card that evolves from Mysterious Fossil from your hand onto your Bench. Either way, treat the new card as a Basic Pokémon. If you searched your deck, shuffle it. (You can't play this card if your Bench is full.)
