Trivia

Like all the fossilized Water-type Pokémon, Carracosta is also part Rock-type.
It could be possible that Carracosta was based from the Daiei's kaiju monster Gamera, similar to how Tyranitar was based from Toho's kaiju monster Godzilla.
Carracosta's types, Water and Rock, share the same type with the Kanto Fossils: Omanyte and Kabuto, while Archeops' types, Rock and Flying, share the same type with the third Kanto Fossil: Aerodactyl.
It can also be a parallel to Omastar.
