A Skull Fossil is a fossil that resurrects Cranidos. The Dream World Skull Fossil bears a resemblance to Cranidos's head.
How to obtain[]
Pokémon Platinum[]
- Go to Eterna City and gain the explorer kit from the man in the house next to the bike shop. You must then use the explorer kit to go into the Underground.
- Once in the underground you must mine the walls; however, to get a skull fossil the last digit of the trainer ID must be odd. If it is even, you cannot find any Skull Fossils via mining.
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl[]
In the base games, Pokémon Diamond Version and Pokémon Pearl Version, Skull Fossils are exclusive to Pokémon Diamond. You will not find any Skull Fossils if you are playing Pearl.
