→Encounters using the Rod
Line 31:
In maps which do not have Super Rod encounters (such as Cerulean City Gym or Lorelei's Elite Four room), fishing with a Super Rod always returns "Looks like there's nothing here."
However, glitch fish slots using the Rod in maps that normally return "Looks like there's nothing here." are possible another way (using Game Genie) if the length of the Super Rod encounter slot data is extended or an invalid fishing group is accessed. There are artificial glitch encounter slots beyond the last slot (for Red/Blue these are the groups beyond group 10 (Fuschia City), for Yellow the structure is slightly different and glitch fish would relate to the slots beyond 31: Cerulean Cave B1F). As Rod encounters work by writing to W_CUROPPONENT (D059 in Red/Blue and D058 in Yellow), fishing for Trainers/[[glitch Trainer]]s is also theoretically possible.
The player can also simply lock W_CUROPPONENT or wEnemyMonSpecies2 (CFD8 in Red/Blue and CFD7 in Yellow) to any Pokémon or Trainer they want before the battle, however this method can be used to change which Pokémon appears in any case and is not specific to a glitch slot of possible fish Pokémon.
