Fossils

Hello, I have a quick question about fossils since I haven't played with them for a while. Can you rare candy a fossil into a stage 2 ? Thanks!

Here's your answer straight from the Compendium LVX:

Q. Can you use Rare Candy to evolve a Mysterious Fossil into an Omastar or Kabutops, or use it on a Root/Claw Fossil to evolve into Cradily/Armaldo?

A. It can. It counts as a basic Pokémon while in play. Omastar, Kabutops, Cradily, and Armaldo are Stage 2 Pokémon; you could use Rare Candy on the Fossil trainer to skip to them. (Oct 16, 2003 PUI Rules Team)

If you haven't played with Fossils in a while you should read through the other rulings about them in the Compendium.
