- Pokemon Plamo Collection Fossil Pokemon Series Tyrantrum
What will visitors see?
The exhibition pairs Fossil Pokémon from the video game series with real organisms known from the fossil record. Visitors can examine real fossils and specimen casts, including a cast of the SUE T. rex skull, alongside Pokémon such as Tyrantrum. The displays use specimens and sculptures to explore how fossils are found and studied in both the Pokémon world and real-world paleontology.
The exhibition was created by Chicago’s Field Museum, Tokyo’s National Museum of Nature and Science, and The Pokémon Company International. Patrick O’Connor, director of Earth & Space Sciences at the Denver museum, described it as “a unique way to engage guests of all ages with paleontological science.”
