Finding the Helix Fossil in "HeartGold"

• You must use the Rock Smash ability on a boulder to find a fossil in either game. The Rock Smash ability can be purchased in Goldenrod City. The Helix Fossil is found randomly in the Ruins of Alph. Smash all boulders in the area to find one. Smashing a boulder can cause you to either find an item, such as a fossil, encounter a wild Rock Type Pokemon or nothing at all. There are multiple Helix Fossils in the Ruins of Alph in "Pokemon HeartGold."
