New Item Card Idea
I believe TCG pocket should add an item card that allows you to draw fossils. Fossils are similar to basic pokemon but we have no way to draw them. So just as we use the item card pokeball to draw basic pokemon we need the same for fossils. Item ideas include Explorer kit, taken from games such as Diamond and Pearl which was used to enter the Grand Underground to mine for fossils. Another idea for this specific item card could be sledgehammer or pickaxe. Either of the three could represent the "pokeball" version of an item card for fossils. In many matches I find it hard to evolve into stage 1 or 2 from fossil Pokemon simply because the fossil isn't being drawn and there isn't any way to pull the fossils as you could actual basic pokemon with pokeballs.

In the original TCG there is the item Fossil Excavation Map (no longer Standard supported), but it could be "reprinted"/adapted for TCG Pocket to help getting fossils in play:
Choose 1:
•Search your deck for an Unidentified Fossil card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then, shuffle your deck.
•Put an Unidentified Fossil card from your discard pile into your hand.
