#93 Helix Fossil - Arceus (pl4)

Helix Fossil is a Trainer card from the Platinum series, released as part of the Arceus set on November 4, 2009. It is classified as a Colorless Basic Pokémon and functions as a Trainer card, allowing it to be played without requiring Energy attachments. The card features an ability called Aqua Reaction, which lets the player search their deck for a card that evolves from Helix Fossil and place it onto the Pokémon, effectively evolving it. This action counts as evolving Helix Fossil and requires shuffling the deck afterward. The card’s rarity is Common, and it is illustrated by artist Ryo Ueda. Helix Fossil cannot be affected by Special Conditions, cannot retreat, and remains in play until discarded by the player during their turn. Its rules specify that it can be discarded without being considered Knocked Out, and it retains its Trainer status even when placed onto the battlefield. This card provides a unique evolutionary mechanic for decks incorporating Helix Fossil.
