I have this really cool cross over idea that has already been tried in the Fossil Fighter Amino, but hear me out. I will touch on that later.
Fossil Figher X Undertale
I got 3 things I am going to talk about here
1: How I see this working
2: The basic plot line (that's the long bit)
3: Who uses what Vivosaurs and side quests
I will touch on the AU that as been made already. It's called Fossiltale, but doesn't really feel like the name 'Fossiltale' to me. It gives me more of a 'Vivotale' due to all the characters just being in Vivosuar form rather than using the core functionality of both games. But I can understand that I didn't coin the name first, so if someone can come up with a better name for this AU, feel free to make a suggestion. I will make a poll if there are some really good ones. For now, I am going to call this AU Fossiltale Above.
1: How I see this working
Plot should be the starting part of this AU, but I want to get this out first. The humans and dinaurians live together. For those of you who have played Fossil Fighters, this means this is taking place after the First game, and before the second.
I see the two games as existing in the same time line, but maybe with some time in between. Maybe a life time or two from the first game. And a hand full before the second.
So we may hear mentions of The first game's heros and characters but never meet them. Dr. Diggings, Hunter, Rosy, Duna, to name a few.
There is a map in Fossil Fighters that I do hope I can redraw. We will see.
2: The basic plot
Prolog-
After Hunter saved the world from the world eating monster, Guhnash. The world welcomed a new kind of people to live among them. The dinosaur shifting race Dinaurian. They quickly formed an alliance with humans. With Dr.Diggings being their ambassador/negotiator.
As the two races worked together, the two races soon saw their world grow with a new set of impressive technology and Vivosaur discoveries.
They built great sky ships, and amazing water diving technology. Along with Dr.Diggings' time travel machine, the world was heading to a better place.
That was 20 years ago.
-The start of Fossiltale-
[Note from Sketch: If this was the title screen of Deltarune, you can choose to be Human or Dinaurian in this AU. ]
Aircrafts had started disappearing in the lower hemisphere. Some reporting a strange fog, then all contact would cut off.
Expeditions reformed to find these missing crafts. Above water, below water, as well as the waters surface near the last locations.
However most of these were spoty. As the locational trackers on the aircrafts would jump all over the place.
One evening, however. The fog was spotted from the air and reported in. A group of scientists where sent to see the fog in person.
However, it would seem the only way in was from the air, as the fog would confuse instruments that was on surface level. Leaving most to be turned around. Back from where they started.
Under the water surface was no better. As underwater volcanic activity would make it near impossible to get through.
The group had tryed to see of satellite scans could help them see beyond the fog. Maybe even how big the area was.
Not much could be seen from the scans images. But the size of the area was condeinced to 3 Islands. With one small one, a med sized mass and a large Cresent shape with a large dip near its center.
So the only way to see this new location was a death sentence. That being, fly into the fog.
Some information on this land was found through an sncient story, found at the Digadigamid on Vivosaur Island.
The legend goes as follows:
Humans and monsters once lived together on the earth. However, monsters welded magic. Making the humans feel scared and weak.
Till one day, humans found a way to revive dinosaurs. Humans found this as a way to protect themselves from monsters.
And then a war broke out when a human and monster was killed.
Humans soon found a place to seal the monsters away, on an island. They had revived a legendary Ocean Vivosaur.
With it's power put an end to the war. They had the ocean split a huge circle around a secluded batch of islands, and a great fog was crafted to keep anyone away from the monsters. To prevent them from being released. As well as keep them in.
The Monsters were never thought of again.
After the story was found, most of the scientists found it as hoopla. Nothing more than some crazy thing that could only be found in a village like the Digadigs.
However, alas, thatbwas their only lead to what could be happening on this small part of the world.
The group of scientists had given up on seeing this new place on the map. All except three.
The three gather the materials and funding. Even after being told this was a suicide mission countless times. The three set off to chart the new world.
The plane last seen flying into the foggy abyss.
-Character selection-
[Character selection includes the choose to be a human or a Dinaurian. You don't get to customize them. Your customization comes with whatever Vivosaur you end up choosing.]
[(If human)Your 5 Vivosaurs to choose from. Spinax(air), Onyx(water), Ourano(earth), Stygi(fire), and Tophis(neutral)]
[(If Dinaurian) You get asked a questionnaire based off your likes and dislikes. Dose not include favorite typing, that gets choosen from the questionnaire. Along with what range and size your Dinaurian can transform into.]
-In game-
After the plan made a rough landing on the smallest island, one of the group of three [the Dinaurian aid] hangs back to see if they can fix the craft. As its not damaged, and can still fly. While two [the player and the human aid] set out to look around. Maybe dig up some fossils and back them back to clean.
(Add a joke about none of you thinking to bring more than one Vivosaur here)
Lucky for you all, there are a lot of earth and fire type fossils there. Most of them being ones that have been discovered, only two that haven't been.
A great break through for all of you. You have found Vivosaurs that have yet to be found. However, the ship is still down, but short range commission still works for the ship and your guys radios.
The Dinaurian, chooses to stay on the ship. Keeping a log incase something happens to everyone. As well as a place to be transferred back to if anyone gets knocked out or hurt from anything in the island.
(Insert of the human aid making a joke about monsters here)
As the player character and human aid travels they meet a Flower monster going as, Flowey the Flower. They look like a white Marigold.
Flowey wants to make sure you can survive in the ruins of 'New Home'. So He shows you how to battle.
[The same battling system from Fossil Fighters Champions is here. However, there is a safe zone still. But this time, you can swap out one Vivosaur.]
[You can choose obe of the waiting Vivosaur from your green side bar. Your opponent can not see this side bar, and ether can you see theirs]
So when you knock out all of Floweys team, he sends out a level 20 and wipes the floor with your level 1-4 Vivosaurs. The human aid also dose not stand a chance.
As Flowey goes on some speal about taking your soul to be come stronger they are blasted away by Toriel and Maia.
Toriel dose a line about how bad of a creature Flowey is and helps you all. Shows you the ruins and awsners questions the human aid asks.
At some point of you leveling up and getting more Vivosaurs. The human aid asks Toriel if there is a way to leave the small island to get to the other islands. Or even if their is away out of the fog.
Toriel goes quiet and runs off. Before you go rushing the Dinaurian aid saids they have the ship up and running. But only for a little bit, as the system will go back off at some point.
So as the player and the human aid travel back to the ship, they are confronted by Toriel.
Toriel launches a fossil battle, saying something about asgore wanting your SOUL's and technology.
However Toriel is beaten. And as such let's the party leave the small island.
As the aircraft gets into the, it soon shuts off, and crashes on to the mid sized island.
The human aid requests to stay in the ship as this land is much too cold for them, and they don't have a third jacket.
The player and the Dinaurian aid travel, but end up getting lost in a sudden blizzard. The short range radio cuts off during the storm.
As you make your away through it, it seems to die down, as the player character wonders down the snowy trail. The player dose in counter some stick breaking, and strange flapping sounds.
[There are no fossils to find during this moment, and there is no way back due to the storm that is behind you]
You find a strange bridge with a large open tooth gate. The player character founds there is someone behind them and asks them to turn around and shake their hand.
A short interaction plays, and the player is introduced to Sans the Skeleton. He tells them that he is to lazy to fight a human in a fossil battle; as that's something his brother wants to do.
Hearing some snow crunching a head, Sans dose ask if the player character is willing to lose to him.
The player can't hit the option fast enough as a larger skeleton in knight attire starts an interaction.
After some small punning from Sans, and the playing finding the large skelly's name is Papyrus. The large bone man ops to leave you alone for now, as he is to frustrated to fight. But he would like to train against the player in a Fossil battle so he can be ready for the Fossil Tournament that 'Mettaton' is hosting.
With that Papyrus Neh heh heheh's away.
Sans shrugs, says something about the storm getting ready to change directions, and something about 'helping out an old friend'.
When the player character's hears the Dinaurian side down the trail from where they came from, as well as some static from the radio.
Sans is gone when the play turns to see him again.
This is alot of open time to find some neutral, water, and air types to add. [The Air typing is the harder one to find]
Also, side quest are open here. As well as some og Undertale battles. [As some are too young to have Vivosaurs, or just refuse to use them. But there is a lot of excited talk about this tournament that will happening in a few days]
[After the player is ready to move forward] the player gets stuck in a snowstorm. And Papyrus requests to battle them. He states that he wants a 'real battle' and 'not to hold back'.
Papyrus starts the battle.
[If you loose three times to Papyrus. He will let you go. (Passive route from UT.]
The player defets Papyrus, and you move on to find a water Marsh.
[More side quests here and the earth type Fossils turn rare here. Air is still rare. But there are a bunch of new water types here.]
You and the Dinaurian aid soon meet Undyne who starts with an OG Undertale battle. Making it way to hard to get away from her. With the help of the Dinaurian aid being a raptor, you both get away from her.
[After some more side quest and a battle with Muffet as she is out for a vacation in 'Waterfall'. So mini boss battle]
Undyne starts the bridge chase, this time she riding on Futabi to keep up with the Dinaurian aid's raptor form.
When Undyne has you cornered, a stray yellow whale comes out of of the water and bites the platform.
After some goofy side quest to get out of the while named 'Bonehemoth'. You and the Dinaurian find yourselves in a dump area. And after finding some makeshift, and old, cleaning/revivel area, you find the bridge back is broken for now.
Good news though! The human Aid was able to fix the teleaporter. The player and the Dinaurian request teleaport. [When ready of course.]
After some talking, and goofy side quest with dating Papyrus later, you all get the air craft waterborn. Making all of your guys lifes easier.
As the ship drifts down tword the dump area, the Dinaurian wants to fix the bridge that connected the two spots of the middle island.
After some side questing to getting bridge stuff later. The three manage to fix the broken bridge. Much to the monsters delight.
You were all about to move on to the large Cresent shaped island, however Undyne gets on top of the ship, and demands a battle.
The player character gets on top and is about to start an true battle when someone [Papyurs] says something about battling honorably with Vivosaurs.
Reluctantly, Undyne starts a fossil battle. Saying something about wiping the floor with the player character.
After Undyne's epic battle, she saids she can help you get over to the Cresent island.
So Undyne joins your party, and comes onto the ship.
As you all travel, the party starts to ask Undyne someone questions. Undyne has a few of her own.
[Long story short, questions on SOUL's, LV, HP. The missing aircrafts and their pilots. While Undyne's questions are about Dinaurians, technology, and... anime?]
However, at some point you some in contact with a large thunderstorm. Forcing the aircraft to become a submarine for a bit.
And the ocean floor was very calm and, somehow, illuminated with soft blue glow. However, it was all short lived as underwater currents became to treacherous for the not suited water craft.
Undyne points the group off to a cave and the group finds a small cavern full of blue flowers and glowing lights. Undyne joins the player in walking around the area. Reading monster history and talking to the local monsters.
[Side quests and Fossil digging goes, the newest fossil found here, are the starter ones. These ones are considered rare in the foggy region.]
Soon enough, the player character and Undyne locate an elevator shaft. The player goes to report it in when the ground suddenly shakes. The walls open and lava starts to spew out of walls.
The player trys to seal the walls with rocks to buy time for the en habitats to ether get in the makeshift submarine, or dive into the ocean. [Most are water monsters, so they are built for it]
With most on board or in the water, the crew make their way up to the sea's surface. Where, with the help of the local monsters, managed to get past the thunder storm.
The crew of three manage to make it to the Cresent island. The local cave dwellers thank you for helping them. And leave to live in the, suddenly hot climate.
Undyne decides to leave too. And leaves with a 'thanks'. And disappears on Futabi in the oceans murky deaths.
The group turns to look at what is a head of them. The Dinaurian looks over the ship one last time, saying it dose not have enough energy to fly without a strong enough power source.
And so. The player and the Human aid travel the new area. And this Volcanically active, and metal covered plan is riddled with fire type Vivosaurs.
[Side questing some more, and og Undertale and Fossil battles]
The two soon find a Lab next to the volcano. And some how, the rock it is on is levitating.
Entering will lead to the encounter with a yellow lizard who saids they have been watching the three of you and your journey through out the Fog Regions. [That is what these islands are called. That you Asgore]
After talking to the lizard named Alphys. A boxy lookubg cleaning bot named Mettaton starts a quiz on the players knowledge of Vivosaurs, as well as the Fog Regions.
[Making sure your paying attention ;)]
After Alphys interruption on Kissy Cutie, Mettaton blasts off, leaving a hole in the Lab's roof.
The human aid asks if there is some kind of power source that is strong enough for an aircraft, in the Fog Regions.
[Long story short. Achievement: Core idea unlocked with the combined effort of the Dinaurian aid, Alphys, and mysterious notes]
Alphys, is willing to help make a mini power source for the aircraft. However, the only draw back is that you will have to run some errands for her.
[Mettaton puzzles here, fossil digging there and some items exchanges over yonder]
All Alphys is missing to make your aircraft an aircraft again is back in the dump, that is located in Waterfall. For now, the ship works for water again.
As you all ready to head back to the ship. Mettaton blocks your path in a show room and starts a Fossil battle.
[Mettaton tells you about this being his mock battle fottage for the big championship he will be hosting in a few days.]
Once defeated, Mettaton let's the player go. Thanking them for show.
Diving back underwater, the three plus Alphys head toward the dump.
[After doing a battle and item exchange quest from the mad dummy. The power core was fixed. Also shipping moment happens here for Undyne and Alphys. Though, it is a side quest]
Alphys and Undyne tell the group that if they want to leave, they will have to talk to king Asgore. However, they will have to walk to his kingdom.
[Some really long walking later, optional side quest, and Fossil digging to the castle. Most of the fossils being air, and neutral types.]
The three arrive to the kingdom of Stone Fort. (It was a fort in the beginning.) There are some trading, shops, and inns here.
[Okay so two things can happen here. 1 thing being if you completed all the side quests up to this point the player can go talk to Asgore out right. If the player has not completed the side quests, the guardsmen at the door will just tell the player a watered down verson of what Asgore would tell them, but for this, we will assume the side quests were completed]
The guard grants you access as the three show off 5 diffrent ore based medals.
The group pass a yellow hallway to into the kings chamber, that is filled with diffrent colored marigolds.
The group request to leave the islands and to tell the world of their discovery of the Fog Regions. Asgore refuses, but is willing to make a bet for how admit the group is.
If, they they becomes the champions in the Fossil Tournament. He will let all of them leave unharmed. If only one of them becomes champion, then he will the winner choose only one to leave with them.
The group seemed unsure, but in their mind. If two of them gets out, they can come back and get the other. They end up agreeing.
[After some time to do some digging, side questing [True lab, and snail race], leveling, and Vivosaur group testing]
The championship has arrived. [Its very much a reference to OG Fossil Fighters] everyone is ready for battle
[Order goes how you want it to, its more or less in the air. Everyone is here, from some random guy in Snowdin, to Undyne, but its up to how you played, is who you fight. There is no Sans battle here, and if there was, he didn't put effort in. He would also be your first opponent, if it was a neutral route(there is no Geno route in this one, due to the 2 extras). But the last battle has to be Mettaton. As this is the glamer show, where his arms fall off and he dose the 'ask the audience thing']
The player is the only one who wins out of the group, as the player had to fight the other two to get to the winners spot. (Asgore knew they had to fight each other. He felt pity and let the option of, 'take a friend with you back out')
Your friends choose to stay behind, and take a breather, while the player goes to talk to Asgore.
However, the player is stopped by Sans. He goes on about how he is the Judge and that he was watching the three of them all while they went. [Based on how you played, Sans will tell you through dialog if it was a Passive or Neutral play though]
After that Sans leaves, by walking twords the door the player needs to walk through. The talk with Asgore goes as expected.
He didn't plan on any of you leaving. That he needs your SOUL's to free his people, so they can see the beauties of the world, and the stairs they can barely see at night. [Thr fog covers the sky, its really hard to see things]
Asgore will you choose a fossil battle or a True battle. [Fossil Fighters or Undertale system]
Both are difficult. [With Asgors's Fossil battle being on the same level of BS as King Dynal at the end of the OG Fossil Fighters game]
After defeating Asgore, you are free to leave. With the others only getting there at the end of the battle.
As all three are getting ready to leave. Flowey returns. Taking both support characters in vines. Flowey goes on a rant, and force the Player to choose who they favor more. The human or the Dinaurian.
Whatever chose is made, the two fight off again Omega Flowey as he absorbs the 7 SOUL's that have been collected.
[A fossil battle against Omega Flowey and the other Aids Vivosaurs become corrupted by Omega Flowey.And you get to use the Dinaurian's Dino form, or the human aids main lead in your battle.]
After Omega Flowey is defeated, and the other side character saved. The whole undertale crew comes to help. But only helps to form the worse and hardest battle yet as Flowey trys one more time to take the SOUL's. But this time. Its everyone's SOUL.
Asriel Dreemurr challenges the three to a True Vivosaur fight.
[A battle where its still Fossil Fighters battle system but has the player forced to ride their Vivosaur around on the field to escape Asriel's attacks. And when all the Vivosaurs LP hits zero, the only Vivosaur that is still standing is the player's ]
Asriel goes on his speal, and when he downs the player and their Vivosaur, they just keep on refusing. Making Asriel lose his patience and is defeated. [The ending of UT]
When the player meets younger Asriel, they tell them their dream to be the best Fossil Fighter with their sibling, and wanting to go see them in the ruins before the fog is lifted.
[Some soft stuff happens, feel free to fill this blank]
The fog is gone and monsters can see the sun for the first time in centuries.
And the player gets a call on their long distance radio.
-- Epilog--
Monsters are living amongst humans and Dinaurians. All learning off if each other.
Vivosaurs have only gotten strong after being introduced to Monsaurs [I will touch on this in 3]
The scientists who found the monster as crazy, have no choose but to believe in monsters (even though Dinosaurs breath in their world)
[Add some side quests and seeing how everyone is doing. Even meet some human and Dinaurian characters]
The group of three have one last night together before one leaves [the one you didn't choose in the flowey fight]
The player and the other side stay there, gazing at the stairs as the end pops on screen.
[That took a whole day to write. I don't want to go back over that. Bite me. And if you made it this far. THANKS FOR READING, ALL OF THAT. No, really. Thanks! If you want to put your own spin on it, go for it!]
3: Who uses what Vivosaurs, and side quests
Perhaps you have picked up on it, but most of the base UT plot is side quest, or filler. Mainly because, that's all stuff I would love to be a love letter to thoughs who want to see their favorite characters own small plot.
Now I will touch the Monsaurs thing. In the Fog Regions, the monsters didn't have access to the technology that the humams did. They had some blue prints, rough ideas, and magic. So the Vivosaurs came out, less like projections and more like the monsters that made them.
So the Monsaurs (Vivosaurs but more magic and monster looking) will look, act, and live like their Monster owners.
The bone Brothers have Boneysaurs (not exactly like Fossil Fighters Champions Boneysaurs, but close. Maybe even their inspiration for the Boneysaurs)
Undyne's Vivosaurs are rough, and armor.
Mettaton has Robosaurs
The Royals, have more mammalian like Vivosaurs. (Not saying the ones that exist already, I mean like T-rex looking like it got fused with a goat if you wanted)
Ect. To the others.
Who uses what Vivosaurs is more up to the person, as their are a lot of new discoveries made in the paleo world. So I will give a rough idea on everyone's preferences on typing.
Flowey - Neutral in the beginning, Air at the end
Toriel - Fire
Papyrus - Earth and Air
Undyne - Water
Mettaton - Air and Fire
Muffet - Earth
Asgore - Neutral all the way around (and still a BS level fight)
As for Sans, if you manage to get this lazy ass to fight you. (Which I don't see happening). He will have a stacked team with a Legend Monsaur being a Fire type, while the others are Neutral.
I see the battle with Sans as a small chance of winning. As his only weak link would be that Legendary Monsaur that looks like his blaster in T-Rex form, or even Neo. (If it is Neo your choosing as the base for this Legend Monsaur. Neo is A Neutral type Vivosaur. This will make Sans impossible to defeat.)
But that is what I have in mind for Fossiltale. I will make some drawings, and small story bits. It may go nowhere, but I wanted to share this. And see what y'all think about this.
Is it dumb? Is it a good idea?
You tell me. And if you made this far. Have a good night. And thanks for reading ALL OF THAT. I know my Dyslexia hit me a lot in this post. But I am tired to go back and fix rn.

FOSSIL FIGHTERS HEADCANONS PART 5 I NEED TO GO TO SLEEP WHY
Lotta spoilers for the first game. You have been warned!
Archaeo are just. Brats. They aren’t nearly as bad as some vivosaurs but they are some of the most high-energy vivosaurs and they seem determined to make this everyone's problem. Not a good pet.
Terata, along with the other Trilobites, are able to function in and out of the water. They do prefer having the option to be in the water, though. Terata are good with kids and rather calm.
Dikelo are... less so. They're rather timid guys and will burrow into the ground if something startles them. They don't like being inside because they can't really burrow. Be sure to give them sheets that they can hide under, or they'll stress themselves out.
Note on a previous hc: Duna is apparently canonically 14, not 16.
That works. I can work with this.
(This makes the idea of Duna being Just That Tall all the more hilarious.)
There are enough dinaurians to repopulate the species and then some. They were thorough. Their ship is lorge.
Only a small fraction of Dinaurians tried to become agents. Even fewer succeeded. Duna was the youngest.
Dynal still has nightmares of seeing his planet die.
He was only a prince of 14 years of age when they got the news.
A galactic lifeform was headed toward the planet of Dinauria.
One that they had picked up recordings of from an alien race half a decade prior.
A single holo device showing the last moments of that planet shown from afar as it got devoured
And a strange creature speaking strange pleading words that nobody could ever decipher.
They had seven years to prepare, if that.
There was chaos.
Eventually one kingdom's scientists managed to make one single ship able to hold a stable population's worth of dinaurians in stone sleep.
Along with this came the technology to direct evolution, and ai to monitor it.
Project: Mother Earth had begun.
Most other kingdoms considered this a sham.
Dynal thought it was a sham. His parents weren't the most honest folk.
(He only realized too late that when things came down to it, they acted in defense of their people - as true rulers.)
(His greatest regret is being unable to say how much he loved them)
They accepted any dinaurian who wished for this one desperate hope, regardless of nation. The king and queen were hoping to get enough volunteers to fill up the ship.
They never got the chance.
A maid had found them in their chambers, dead.
The queen, Theria, bloody and torn, died like the warrior she'd been.
The king, Dynal XV, soaked with blood, his throat slit.
The assassin was caught and executed but the damage was done.
19 years old and barely an adult, King Dynal XVI was crowned.
It was only weeks after that the news came.
Guhnash was upon them two years early.
Dynal knew what to do.
Even if it was a sham, it would give his people hope, if only for a moment.
It wasn't full to the brim but it still held a stable population.
Once everyone who had volunteered along with a few others had boarded, Dynal gave the order to blast off, not expecting for it to work.
It did.
It was only when the ship was many hundreds of miles away that Dynal realized
It wasn't a sham.
And he broke down crying, as Dinauria was consumed.
(They had loved their people just as he did.)
They searched the stars for eleven years. Most of the populous, including a nine-year-old Raptin, were in the newly developed stone sleep.
Raptin still remembers Dinauria. He resents the humans for what he sees as taking away his only chance of getting back his home.
Duna, on the other hand, was born during the voyage, the daughter of a scientist and a security guard. She only knows of Dinauria through stories and holotapes.
She was all of four years of age when Earth was discovered.
It took only a year for the next few phases of Project: Mother Earth to go underway.
The seeds were planted and the remaining populus went into stone sleep.
They expected to be woken by news that the Dinaurian People had been revived.
(On Earth, a young scientist and his sponsor are exploring an ancient craft when one of them presses a button.)
(A distress beacon calls out, and ancient failsafes spring to life.)
The Dinaurians wake up to very different news.
