Old Rod

The Old Rod is a key item introduced in Generation I.
==Effect==
The Old Rod allows the player to fish in bodies of water. To fish, the player should use the item while facing a body of water or while surfing. Since Ruby and Sapphire, it is incicated that a Pokémon has been hooked to it; when this happens, the player should quickly reel in the fishing line by pressing the A Button, or otherwise the Pokémon would go away.
Successfully finding a Pokémon would start a battle with it. Pokémon encountered this way are from the Old Rod pool, which are typically weaker and at a lower level than those encountered via Good Rod and Super Rod.
