Fossil decks to be outdated by next format?

[Killjoy]

I just checked go-pokemon.com and Power Keepers will be one of the sets rotated out...that means that mysterious fossil is now banned and fossil decks are going to take a big hit. Whats a fossil trainer to do now? =(

I don't think it will have too much of an effect on Fossils. You still have Kabutops and Aerodactyle (paired with the correct cards and you have a mean deck). You still have all the majority of the fossils so I don't see it being too bad.:thumb:

All cards that evolve from Mysterious fossil will also be rotated, so it would not be much use anyway. DP-on fossils and their evolutions, such as Rampardos and Omastar would not use mysterious fossil - the fossils they evolve from are not being rotated.

well i was planning on running fossil deck with omastar/kabutops/aerodactyl. and i think i found the answer, lol, just run 4 helix/dome fossils instead of mysterious. >.<

your issue with aerodactyl is getting it out, as Fossil Excavator doesnt do it, and Holon Fossil is gone.

im not using holon fossil tho, im using helix and dome fossil. Also, what i ment was, because power keepers is being rotated out, the good kabutops will be banned. i liked his ability. =(

I don't think the rotation would affect much on the Fossil lines since we now have Dome Fossil, Helix Fossil and Old Amber and the best part of all is, we can play of them if you want to compare to when all evolve from Mysterious Fossil...
