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.
Pokédex entries
- Pokémon Red and Blue
- A prehistoric Pokémon that died out when its heavy shell made it impossible to catch prey.
- Pokémon Yellow
- Sharp beaks ring its mouth. Its shell was too big for it to move freely, so it became extinct.
- Pokémon Gold
- Apparently, it cracked Shellder's shell with its sharp fangs and sucked out the insides.
- Pokémon Silver
- Once wrapped around its prey, it never lets go. It eats the prey by tearing at it with sharp fangs.
- Pokémon Crystal
- Its heavy shell allowed it to reach only nearby food. This could be the reason it is extinct.
- Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire
- Omastar uses its tentacles to capture its prey. It is believed to have become extinct because its shell grew too large and heavy, causing its movements to become too slow and ponderous.
- Pokémon Emerald
- An Omastar uses its tentacles to capture its prey. It is believed to have become extinct because its shell grew too large, making its movements slow and ponderous.
- Pokémon FireRed
- Its tentacles are highly developed as if they are hands and feet. As soon as it ensnares prey, it bites.
