In ''Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu!'' and ''Pokemon Let's Go Eevee!'', there is no Fishing Rod item. Instead, the player uses a technique called "Sea Skimming" which is unlocked after speaking to an NPC located in Fuschia City, next to the Pokemon GO Complex. He is found next to a Lapras and will teach the 'Sea Skim Technique' to either your partner Pikachu or partner Eevee, respectively.

'''''Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield'''''


In ''Pokemon Sword'' and ''Pokemon Shield'', the player receives a Fishing Rod at the start of the game when they equip their Bag.
== '''''Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield''''' ==


Unlike prior games in the series, you cannot use the fishing rod from the Bag menu-- instead, there are rippling spots on bodies of water that can be interacted with by pressing the 'A' Button. If the player presses the 'A' Button again in time, the Pokemon will be reeled in and the battle will begin.


The Fishing Rod only comes in one model, which is obtained at the start of the game. It cannot be upgraded like in previous games of the series. The area where the player is fishing will determine what type of Pokemon is caught and the rarity percentages are determined in the same way as normal tall-grass encounters.

In ''Pokemon Sword'' and ''Pokemon Shield'', fishing at the same spot repeatedly can increase chances of encountering Brilliant Pokemon (Pokemon who drop Watts and have better stats than normal encounters) and Shiny Pokemon. This process is called 'Chain Fishing'.
