get the claw fossil because anorith is better
You can find two fossils in the dessert where you need the go-goggles, but you can only choose one fossil. The root fossil contains the first evolve form of cradily and the claw fossil contains the first evolved form of armaldo.
I have Pokemon Sapphire, but it's the same thing in both games. There are two fossils, one is the root fossil and one is the claw fossil. The root fossil will get you a Lileep (which then evolves into a Cradily at lvl40) and the claw fossil will get you an Anorith (which also evolves at lvl40 to give you an Armaldo). Hope that helps!!
In Pokémon Emerald, the Mirage Tower contains two fossils: Root Fossil and Claw Fossil. Players can choose one fossil to revive into either Lileep (from the Root Fossil) or Anorith (from the Claw Fossil) at the Devon Corporation in Rustboro City.
In Pokemon Sapphire, you can't catch Kabutops in the wild. You have to first obtain a Claw Fossil from the Mirage Tower on Route 111. Then take the Claw Fossil to the Devon Corporation in Rustboro City to revive it into a Kabuto. Finally, level up Kabuto to lvl 40 to evolve it into Kabutops.
Claw comes out as Anthorip and root comes out as Lileep. It doesn't matter which one you choose because you can get the opposite fossil when you beat the game, but I personally prefer anthorith.
root fossil is lileep claw fossil is anorith
You'll get an Anorith. CLAW fossil- anorith root fossil-lileep helix fossil- kabuto
The Root fossil is the Pokemon Lileep and the Claw fossil is anorith =D
To get a Lileep in Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald you need to revive a Root Fossil. The Root Fossil can be found on Route 111 however choosing it will cost you the ability to get the Claw Fossil. Alternatively you can trade for a Lileep from another game if you've picked the Claw Fossil.
Claw Fossil - Anorith Root Fossil - Lileep
In The Ruins on Route 111 you face the choice of choosing between the Root or the Claw fossil choose the Root Fossil. Bring the fossil to the Devon Corp building in Rustoboro to revive
Go to where the desert (there's a sandstorm) is, you'll find a fossil (like a rock) and there's 2. Pick the claw fossil up not the root fossil. The other one sinks and is gone forever. The claw fossil is anorith, the root one is lileep. Then go to rustbro city and a scientist will turn the fossil to a pokemon.
If given to the Devon researcher in the Devon corporation the claw fossil can be revived into Anorith.
in the ground
It is in the Northeast corner of the desert.

You make a Pokemon hold a root fossil on another game. Then you migrate or trade that Pokemon to the game that you have the claw fossil.
