Helix Fossil can't be affected by any Special Conditions and can't retreat. At any time during your turn before your attack, you may discard Helix Fossil from play. (This doesn't count as a Knocked Out Pokémon.)

Helix Fossil (pl4-93) is a Trainer — Item card printed in the Arceus set that can be placed into play as if it were a Colorless Basic Pokémon. Its Poké-Body, Aqua Reaction, lets you attach a Water Energy from your hand to search your deck for a card that evolves from Helix Fossil and put that evolution onto it. It cannot be affected by Special Conditions, cannot retreat, and may be discarded before attacking without counting as Knocked Out, making it a temporary platform for evolving into its fossil line.
