Description
Omanyte was the second pokemon ever brought back from extinction.The shell was found in fossilized solidified lava.
At first it was thought to be a regular fossil until the cut it open.
Due to Omanytes shell being so strong against great pressures of deep ocean swimming, they have a great tolerance to pressure as well as great heat and cold.
A small fragment of DNA had survived in the sealed shell, enough to clone and bring it back.
they artificially inseminated Octillery eggs from a farm in Hoenn who farms them for their ink.
When many were produced they found that they lived in large groups and had amazing buoyancy design within their shell to help them control going up and down in the water. they also could store a huge amount of pressure, essential for water based attacks.
When they were put on the market many people bought them despite their incredible price, however not many people used them for battle, and many were put in large tanks for display, mainly owned by rich business men.
when threatened they lift their tenticles as an attempt to make themselves look bigger.
Hope you like it

you may want to add that scientists said they were thought to go extinct when their shell grew to big and became hard for them to catch pray causing their extinction, i read that somewhere

my mistake, it says that for omastar, not omanyte. It says that on just about all the pokedexes

This brings me back to seeing nautiluses at seaworld. Those are some pretty cool cepholopods.
I wonder how they brought it back in Kanto where there isn't an octillery in sight though.
I wouldn't fight with that thing either. It's too cute and snuggly to put in that danger!

Aw, cute (and it still looks alot like it's anime/game counterpart, oddly, but that's still good) as per usual, the coloring/shading is well done
