How will you get the fossil pokemon?

[Supreme Leader Palpitoad]

Hopefully no one has made a thread about this yet. But I have thought of this: how will you get the fossil pokemon in this region? Are they version exclusive? Or do you get them like you got them in BW. When can you revive them? Discuss!

I think we'll get a choice. They've been pretty explicit and what is and isn't exclusive.

As for how we get them, maybe we foil Team Flare's plan and are allowed to take one for ourselves? A throwback to Gen I.

Wasn't there a rumor you need to get every single fossil peace through street pass?

From the looks of it, you probably have to rescue a scientist or something from Team Flare and then they'll let you choose what fossil you want as thanks. And I still don't know which one I want...they're both so dang cute

 

[Team Gaara]

Fossils aren't normally exclusive, so I don't see that being the case. Especially since they didn't mention it as such.

I also feel like they'll either be given to us or found in a cave somewhere.

 

[The Outrage]

It explicitly says on the site you get to choose.

I really hope not, if it is I'm glad they changed how street pass works so that you just have to pass by a hotspot to trade data with whoever was last there.

I think you get to choose the fossil and I honestly don't know which one to choose they seem to be pretty awesome imo, but I really do hope that it isn't version exclusive like how it was with cranidos and shieldon, with cranidos being exclusive to diamond and shieldon to pearl

Black market back alley dealings where you set up a sting operation and BAM! You find out it was Team Rocket buying the fossil pokemon to sell at their filthy casinos that I never win at.
