Yes somebody did find fossils
Indeed they did. Of course, it wasn't Illinois then, but they walked over the same area of the Earth. Dinosaur fossils aren't much found there now, because the kinds of rocks they fossilized in are mostly out west. You can find fossils in Illinois, but they're found animals and plants that lived before the dinosaurs.
One thing is for sure, you won't find any native dinosaur bones. But there are fossils among the glacially deposited rocks; you can find Ordovician coral, brachiopods, even petrified wood. In the overburden dumps of coal mines you can find a rich variety of Pennsylvanian Age plant life, in particular fern fossils and tree bark. In parts of northern and southern Illinois, areas of marine sedimentary rock are exposed as outcrops. These are rich fields of ancient marine fossils including shark teeth, blastoids, crinoids, formanifera, and even trilobites in certain areas. EDIT: There are several relatively small areas where other sorts Cretacious fossils can be found (near Quincy, Illinois and Far-Southern Illinois). However, it is difficult to find exposed rock in these areas, checking for local quarries/exposed rock areas is the best bet although I have never done this myself. If you CAN get into a quarry in the right area (check a geologic map of illinois) you can possibly find these cretacious fossils--shark/fish teeth, bones of fish/reptillians, rarers items have been found such as peices of dinosaurs but it is doubtful that many will be found. Mazon creek is an easily accessible area for fossils, but it takes patience to find them there--jellfish (boring)...but good finds are fossilized bark, ferns/plants, RARE: fish, spiders, insects, tully monster, etc...
To find fossils, you have to go underground, and also, if you have defeated the elite four then you are more likely to find more fossils.
The best place to find fossils is underground. You can find them when you hunt for sheres.
You use rock smash and can sometimes find fossils.
There aren't any fossils there.
yes you can find broken fossils in metamorphic rics
You are most likely to find fossils in sedimentary rock.
well,you sometimes find fossils under the sands and they were alive but now dead
You can find dark fossils anywhere after completing the test in rivet ravine:)
there is no fossils of squrtle in any game
