In the anime
Omastar first appeared in EP046, alongside all the other Generation I Fossil Pokémon. They were sleeping under Grandpa Canyon until a dynamite blast woke them up. The Water/Rock-typed Fossil Pokémon chased Ash Ketchum and Team Rocket until Aerodactyl showed up and scared them off.
Omastar also appeared in EP163, alongside its pre-evolved from; Omanyte. These Pokémon were discovered to be living in the Ruins of Alph, but they moved into a museum.
Dr. Yung uses a Mirage Omastar in The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon.
