Archeops (Japanese: アーケオス Archeos) is a dual-type Rock/Flying Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
It evolves from Archen starting at level 37, after it is revived from a Plume Fossil.
Though capable of flight, Archeops was apparently better at hunting on the ground. It needs a running start to take off. If Archeops wants to fly, it first needs to run nearly 25 mph, building speed over a course of about 2.5 miles.
Its name comes from Archaeopteryx and the suffix -ops, which is common in dinosaur names.
