Fishing is a way to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the water. In fact, some Pokémon can only be caught by using a fishing rod. There are three fishing rods that are given out throughout the course of most {{pkmn|games}}, and each one is given out by a [[Fishing Brothers|Fishing Brother]]. [[Generation V]] includes only the Super Rod, which is given out by [[Looker]]{{sup/5|BW}} or [[Cedric Juniper]]{{sup/5|B2W2}}. In [[Generation VII]], [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] include only a Fishing Rod, given out by [[Lana]]. The Fishing Rod may additionally reel in items instead of Pokémon.

===Catching Pokémon===
====Catching Pokémon====
====Generation I and Generation II====
=====Generation I and Generation II=====
In Generation {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, fishing is simply a matter of standing next to water and using the rod. Sometimes, it will hook a Pokémon and start a {{pkmn|battle}}. Other times, it will catch nothing. There is a random chance of either happening, so if the rod catches nothing, players can cast it out again. The player can only fish from land, not while surfing.

The player can only fish from land, not while surfing.


====Generation III====
=====Generation III=====
Starting with [[Generation III]], the fishing mechanic became more complicated, as the {{player}} would have to pay attention and confirm as soon as the rod hooked a Pokémon, or else it would get away. A series of ellipses appear prior to the text "Oh! A bite!", which is when the player should press the A Button. In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, this required a series of confirmations to reel in better Pokémon. [[Generation III]] also introduced the ability for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s to fish off the back of a {{m|surf}}ing Pokémon, which may be required to catch {{p|Feebas}}. This also made fishing on {{rt|4|Kanto}} possible. Starting from Emerald, if the first Pokémon in the player's party has the ability {{a|Suction Cups}} or {{a|Sticky Hold}}, the player is more likely to get a bite.

====Generation IV====
=====Generation IV=====
In [[Generation IV]], when the {{player}} uses the rod, an exclamation mark-like sign pops up above the {{player}}, noting that they should push the A button to start the battle with the Pokémon they've encountered. As with [[Generation III]], the Pokémon will go away if the player takes too long.

=====Generation V=====
[[File:Key Super Rod Sprite.png|thumb|right|Super Rod's Key Item obtain sprite from Generation V]]
[[File:Key Super Rod Sprite.png|thumb|right|Super Rod's Key Item obtain sprite from Generation V]]
In [[Generation V]], fishing mechanics are mostly unchanged from [[Generation IV]]. However, by fishing in {{DL|Phenomenon|rippling water}}, different Pokémon can be caught, generally being rare Pokémon or the evolved forms of the Pokémon normally found. As such, this allows certain Pokémon such as {{p|Milotic}} and {{p|Poliwrath}} to be caught in the wild, while normally they would not. Furthermore, the Old and Good Rods are no longer available, making the {{player}} have a single rod to fish Pokémon with.

====Generation VI====
=====Generation VI=====
In [[Generation VI]], fishing mechanics remain mostly unchanged, with the removal of rippling water and the addition of consecutive fishing. The Old and Good Rods return in this Generation.

Line 123: Line 127:
Fishing near rocks and other impassable spaces (not including spaces occupied by Trainers) will raise the chances of hooking Pokémon. The more sides (north, south, east, or west) around the space where the bobber lands that are blocked by such obstacles, the higher the chances of hooking a Pokémon are. A space of land may also count as an obstacle on one side of the bobber, so long as it is not the only one. If three sides are blocked, every cast will hook a Pokémon.

A space of land may also count as an obstacle on one side of the bobber, so long as it is not the only one. If three sides are blocked, every cast will hook a Pokémon.


====Generation VII====
=====Generation VII=====
In [[Generation VII]], fishing mechanics have been changed to where the small wells that are seen underwater are now the only places where the player can fish. The player has the option of using the wells that are accessible on land, or by using the [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] {{p|Lapras}} Paddle (it cannot be used with {{p|Sharpedo}} Jet). Consecutive fishing has also been removed.  
In [[Generation VII]], the player can no longer fish in any body of water. Instead, in certain areas, there are piles of rocks at the bottom of the water where the player can fish to find Pokémon. Sometimes when the player reels in their line, they may find an item instead of a Pokémon. In each area with fishing spots, at least one of the rock piles will have bubbles rising from it to the surface, and if the player fishes at that spot, they will be able to more commonly find Pokémon that would be rare at the other spots. As soon as the player reels in their line after they find any Pokémon or item from such spots, the bubbles will disappear until the player re-enters the area. The bubbles will also disappear if the player moves too quickly near the spot, if they move over it, or if they reel in their rod too quickly. Once the bubbles disappear, the encounter rate returns to that of other fishing spots.


Much like Generation V, only one fishing rod can be collected in the game, but this time, the more generic term "Fishing Rod" is used rather than the specific names from the previous games. Unlike previous games, the player does not need to access this rod in the menu or assign it to a Key button to use it. Instead once they are in position of the well and it is seen on the screen, the player can press "A" button to use the fishing rod. Aside from Pokémon, certain items such as the {{DL|Valuable item|Pearl}} can also be found through fishing.
In the [[Alola]] region, there are fishing spots at [[Seaward Cave]], [[Kala'e Bay]], [[Melemele Sea]], [[Paniola Town]], [[Brooklet Hill]], [[Akala Outskirts]], [[Malie Garden]], [[Secluded Shore]], [[Seafolk Village]], [[Poni Wilds]], [[Poni Breaker Coast]], [[Vast Poni Canyon]], [[Poni Meadow]], [[Poni Gauntlet]], and [[Routes]] {{rtn|7|Alola}}, {{rtn|8|Alola}}, {{rtn|9|Alola}}, {{rtn|13|Alola}}, {{rtn|14|Alola}} and {{rtn|15|Alola}}.
 
The different types of fishing rods are also all replaced by a single "Fishing Rod" in Generation VII. This Fishing Rod cannot be used from the Bag, but instead, when the player approaches a fishing spot, the game prompts the player with the option to press the A button to use the Fishing Rod. Some fishing spots may be accessible from land, while others may only be accessible from water. If the player wishes to fish at a spot in the middle of water, they can only do so using the [[Poké Ride]] {{p|Lapras}} Paddle.

Numerous episodes of the {{pkmn|anime}} have featured the group fishing. Rather than using bait, lures with Pokémon designs are used. In the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', {{an|Misty}} was shown fishing shortly before Ash runs in to her. At the {{safari|Kanto}}, a fishing rod is distributed with the {{ball|Safari}}s, as seen in [[EP035]]. {{Ash}} and Misty both participated in a [[Seaking Catching Day|Seaking Catching competition]] in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''.
Numerous episodes of the {{pkmn|anime}} have featured the group fishing.


In the first epsiode of the anime, [[EP001]], [[Misty]] is shown fishing shortly before Ash runs in to her.
In ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]'', a fisherman named [[Sullivan]] believed that the secret to catching the [[Nero|Whiscash he was looking for]], was finding the right lure. In ''[[AG152|On Olden Pond]]'', Ash and his friends visited a lake, which had used to be a popular fishing resort. Ash, {{an|Brock}}, and {{an|May}} tried fishing from the lake, with Ash eventually hooking up a {{p|Crawdaunt}}. Ash attempted to battle the Crawdaunt with his {{AP|Corphish}}, but the Ruffian Pokémon was soon defeated by its evolved form, which then proceeded to destroy the group's loaned fishing rods. It was later revealed that the Crawdaunt belonged to a man named [[Mr. Saridakis]], who had once tried to purchase the lake in order to build an amusement park over it, but {{OBP|Tiffany|AG152}}, the owner of the lake, had refused to sell it. As a result, he had unleashed his Crawdaunt to the lake to scare off the people who came to fish there. After being saved from drowning by a {{p|Dragonair}} living in the lake, Mr. Saridakis decided to cancel his plans. {{an|Misty}} has a collection of lures, including a [[Misty's special lure|special lure]] based on herself that she believes is the best. She sent it to {{Ash}} as a gift in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing]]''. Ash used this lure in ''[[DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This]]'' to try to catch a powerful {{AP|Buizel}}.


At the {{safari|Kanto}}, a fishing rod is distributed with the {{ball|Safari}}s, as seen in [[EP035]].
[[File:Cilan fishing rod.png|thumb|left|250px|Cilan holding a fishing rod]]
In ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]'', {{an|Cilan}} used his fishing skills to catch a {{TP|Cilan|Stunfisk}} that was preventing Ash and {{AP|Oshawott}} from retrieving plants at the bottom of a lake to cure their {{status|poison}}ed Pokémon. Like others before him, Cilan uses a fishing lure based on himself. In ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'', Cilan showed his fishing skills again by catching a {{p|Basculin}} in {{TRT}}'s fake fishing competition. In [[SS027]], Cilan was seen using his fishing rod once again, this time hooking up a wild {{p|Gyarados}}. Later in the episode, he used his rod in an attempt to pull Gyarados back to its home lake, but was disturbed by [[Amer]] and his robotic {{p|Qwilfish}}. A Super Rod made its debut in the anime in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]'' as the item {{an|Iris}} had to find for a scavenger hunt. In ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'', Cilan mentioned that [[Mr. Briney]] from [[Dewford Town]] was going to host the Old Rod Fishing Rally soon, prompting him to depart for [[Johto]] in order to participate in the said competition.

In ''[[XY022|Going for the Gold!]]'', Ash and his friends met a fisherman named [[Rodman]], who was trying to fish up a {{Shiny}} {{p|Magikarp}} with a Magikarp-shaped lure. Ash, {{an|Serena}}, and {{an|Clemont}} decided to try fishing too, with Ash giving the inexperienced Serena instructions of how to do it correctly. While fishing, Serena hooked up a {{p|Corsola}}, which she tried to battle with her {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}}, but it simply hid itself behind Serena when Corsola tried to use {{m|Water Gun}} on it, causing the Coral Pokémon to get away. Afterwards, Rodman let Ash and his friends keep the fishing rods he had loaned them. The same rods reappeared in ''[[XY024|An Undersea Place to Call Home!]]'', where Ash used one of them to hook up a {{p|Skrelp}}. A fishing competition was a part of the [[Pokémon Summer Camp]], as shown in ''[[XY040|Day Three Blockbusters!]]''. The Pokémon hooked up during the competition included Ash's {{p|Alomomola}}, Serena's {{p|Staryu}}, Clemont's {{p|Corphish}}, {{an|Tierno}}'s Magikarp, {{an|Shauna}}'s {{p|Tentacool}}, and {{an|Trevor}}'s {{p|Wailord}}. {{an|Bonnie}} also participated the competition, but her possible catch wasn't shown.

After being saved from drowning by a {{p|Dragonair}} living in the lake, Mr. Saridakis decided to cancel his plans.
In [[SS037]], Clemont and Bonnie participated in a fishing competition held in [[Lumiose City]]. Clemont intended to use his [[List of Clemont's inventions|high-tech fishing rod]] to win, but Cilan, also taking part in the competition, commented him on his way of approach to fishing. With Cilan's advise, Bonnie managed to reel in a {{p|Clawitzer}}, which, due to it then proceeding to attack them, was driven away by Cilan's Stunfisk, by which time the competition already ended. Later in the episode, Clemont and Cilan combined Clemont's rod and Cilan's fishing skills to save Bonnie from a runaway subway cart.


In ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]'', {{an|Cilan}} used his fishing skills to catch a {{TP|Cilan|Stunfisk}} that was preventing Ash and {{AP|Oshawott}} from retrieving plants at the bottom of a lake to cure their {{status|poison}}ed Pokémon.

In ''[[SM005|Yo, Ho, Ho! Go, Popplio!]]'', [[Professor Kukui]] took the [[Pokémon School]] class on a fishing lesson, which he gave {{an|Lana}} to lead. Lana, being the most skilled fisher of the group, managed to fish up many different Water Pokémon, while Ash and {{an|Kiawe}} were having trouble finding anything at all, and {{an|Sophocles}} was too busy programming his high-tech rod to even try. {{an|Lillie}}, however, managed to surprise everyone by hooking up a {{p|Milotic}}, but her line snapped before she could reel the Tender Pokémon in, causing it go get away.


A Super Rod made its debut in the anime in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]'' as the item {{an|Iris}} had to find for a scavenger hunt.
Team Rocket was seen fishing in ''[[SM012|The Sun, the Scare, the Secret Lair!]]'' while attempting to catch new Alolan Pokémon, but to no avail. [[Jessie]] used a lure based on {{p|Ekans}}, [[James]]'s based on {{p|Koffing}}, and {{MTR}}'s based on himself.


In ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'', Cilan mentioned that [[Mr. Briney]] from [[Dewford Town]] was going to host the Old Rod Fishing Rally soon, prompting him to depart for [[Johto]] in order to participate in the said competition.
Fishing was a central plot element in ''[[SM033|Big Sky, Small Fry!]]'', where both Ash and Lana as well as Team Rocket tried to fish up the [[Totem Pokémon]] of [[Brooklet Hill]]. While Team Rocket was taken away by {{an|Bewear}} in the middle of their fishing, Lana managed to hook up the Totem Pokémon, a {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Wishiwashi|School Form}} {{p|Wishiwashi}}, almost immediately, and proceeded to battle it. She was eventually able to defeat the Totem Pokémon, receiving a [[Waterium Z]] as a reward.
