Omastar (Japanese: オムスター Omstar) is a dual-type Rock/Water Fossil Pokémon.

It evolves from Omanyte starting at level 40, after it is revived from a Helix Fossil.

Biology

Omastar is a sky-blue Ammonoidea Pokémon, with several tentacles and a pale yellow, helix spiraled shell on its back. Its shell constantly grows, getting heavier over time and thus limiting its mobility. It is the weight of the shell that is most often cited as the cause for Omastar's extinction. Several sharp spikes line the shell's midsection, spanning from its forefront to just a little towards its back. The shell's hem has two circular indents where Omastar's eyes come out. Its eyes have yellow sclera, with vertically-slit pupils. It has an oval mouth with a four-way jawed, fang-like beak. Once caught, it never lets go of prey, immediately biting down on its victim with immense power.

Before its own shell led to its extinction, Omastar swam the seas in search of prey. Even the hard shells of prehistoric Shellder stood no match to Omastar's deadly powerful bite, and were quickly made a meal of by having their insides sucked out.

Major appearances

Omastar first appeared in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon, alongside all the other Generation I Fossil Pokémon. They were sleeping under Grampa Canyon until a dynamite blast woke them up. The Water/Rock-type Fossil Pokémon chased Ash Ketchum and Team Rocket until Aerodactyl showed up and scared them off.

Other

Omastar also appeared in Fossil Fools, alongside its pre-evolved form Omanyte. These Pokémon were discovered to be living in the Ruins of Alph, but they moved into a museum.

An Omastar appeared in Dealing With Defensive Types!.

Minor appearances

An Omastar appeared in Team Rocket's fantasy in Imitation Confrontation.

Dr. Yung uses a Mirage Omastar in The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon.

Gold Apparently, it cracked Shellder's shell with its sharp fangs and sucked out the insides.
Silver Once wrapped around its prey, it never lets go. It eats the prey by tearing at it with sharp fangs.

Trivia

  • In early English-language promotional material for Pokémon Red and Blue, Omastar was originally known as "Kargo". This is derived from "escargot" (French for snail).
  • Omastar has the highest Special Attack base stat of any non-legendary Rock-type Pokémon.
  • Omastar is the only Fossil Pokémon whose extinction has been explained: its shell was too heavy for it to move, so it died out from starvation.
    • This may also be a reference to the giant orthocone, ancestor to the modern octopus. The orthocone resembled an octopus with a long, pointed shell that was slow and cumbersome.

Origin

It seems to be based on a type of ammonite.

Name origin

Omastar's name is a combination of a phonetic anagram of ammonite and star (based on its body shape).

Omstar is a combination of オウムガイ ōmugai (nautilus) and star.
