If it won't keep a charge I'd replace the whole battery. What phone is it out of

Too old to have much hope. 18 years is too many.
A new budget phone will be a much better investment than trying to track down a newly manufactured battery for a phone designed to last 3 years.
There's also no service for 2G phones in most places anymore, and very limited service for the phones that replaced this one.

Hard to say. I'd replace the battery with a new one but it's a roll of the dice as to whether the root problem is the phone

First make sure the charger is working by charging a different phone. Leave it on the charger for 24 hours and see if it takes a charge. When batteries go below a certain voltage their protection circuit disconnects them from the load. It may only trickle charge.
> he actually revived it
I don't know what that means. Ask him to do it again and give it a full charge. The battery or phone could be bad.
