So, Cara Liss appears.
Since I first saw the title, I expected her to appear. After all, it was her in the games who came up with the whole idea of combining Fossils and made a machine for that (bringing pain and suffering to the Pokemon world...). Of course, the anime doesn't always have to follow the games, but looks like this time it did, which is always nice.
And they're apparently giving Cara a companion (possibly a "male counterpart" for her, with a similarly caricatural design, but this is just my educated guess). Interesting.
