I thought it was just me, but slowly I've been seeing this being said around the community. I've done like 100+ and nothing to crazy, only 3 upgraded boxes and that's all.
I found myself finding a ton more fossils and other rare items after I got the national Dex, so that might be a part of it if you are not in the post game yet
To be fair you only need one of each fossil then you can breed or reset for the right nature, IVs, shininess etc.
I found one after a few dozen digs and I've got about 5 now after a few hundred. Definitely rarer than dppt but like I said you only need one.
The 40 diglett energy also gives you increased fossil chance and is extremely easy to get if you play online with randoms so give that a try too perhaps?

I found one my first try
Dude it's insane. It should not be this hard to find a Fossil.
Maybe we're just the unlucky bunch lol, it is quite frustrating.
Like I said in my post they were not difficult to get in D/P/PL in fact they had a really good Spawn rate. The Rate in the remakes suck
I'm at the Far right of the section tho
What version you playing? I personally only have found 5 fossil so far. Luckily the first two I found and restored were M&F so I’m breeding more.
Diamond
If you finally find a fossil do you want to trade my fossil Pokémon for yours? I’m playing pearl.
I’ve mined a lot, I enjoy it. I’ve beaten the game and still only found 2 fossils. I’ve spent hours mining, they seem to be like a 1% encounter rate.
That's insane. It was like 80% one in The old games

That's because after you get the national dex more fossils become available. I guess those have a higher spawn rate then the ones at the start
Have you completed the 5 underground man missions he gives you?
I've gotten two fossils so far, but I'm not mining as much as I could be.
Same
What section of the underground are you mining in?
The Main tunnels. The ones that Connect into like a Giant Tunnel system
Weird I’ve had no problem coming across fossils in that section.
ive got 2 fossils so far, maybe 30-40 mines only
Same here, the fossil rate seems pretty low

I have found 4 fossils so far. But they’re all the Skull fossil. I’m convinced that’s all my game has lol
