A Cover Fossil appeared in A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1. It was found by Ferris and later stolen by Team Rocket, who—by using the stolen data from Professor Juniper and Fennel's fossil resurrection machine and the stones stolen from the Chargestone Cave—managed to revive it into a Tirtouga. It evolved into a Carracosta in the next episode and was eventually returned back to its own time through a time gate in Twist Mountain.

The Cover Fossil was introduced as an Item card in the Pokémon Trading Card Game in the Noble Victories expansion, first released in the Japanese Red Collection. It allows players to look at the bottom seven cards of their deck, reveal a Tirtouga they find there, and put it onto their Bench. The other six cards are then shuffled back into the deck.
Unidentified Fossil cards do not feature a Cover Fossil, but can still be used to evolve into Tirtouga.
