How to Get Kabuto in Pokemon: Silver

Mysterious ancient fossils provide the focus of a side quest in the original Pokémon video games, known collectively as Generation I. These fossils, found in an excavation site infiltrated by Team Rocket, transform into prehistoric Pokémon as part of the game's storyline. Kabuto appears from one of these fossils and players may wish to carry it into later games. "Pokémon: Silver" allows players of earlier games to transfer Pokémon from those titles to "Silver" using the Time Capsule device in Ecruteak City.
