Is Magikarp the only Pokémon that you can catch with the Old Rod in Fire Red?
Aug. 3, 2022I recieved a DS Lite from someone recently, and I have been playing Fire Red. I got the Old Rod and started fishing, but every time I reeled it in, it was a Magikarp. Do I need to get a Good/Super Rod to get Pokémon like Goldeen?

After looking at every location in FRLG, it is obvious that Magikarp is the only thing that can be found with the Old Rod.
To get Goldeen, you need the Good Rod. The Good Rod can be acquired in Fuchsia City next to the Wardens house by the man with the lost teeth. These are the locations that Goldeen can be fished with the Good Rod.
Route 6, 22, 23, 25, Berry Forest, Cape Brink, Cerulean Cave, Four Island, Fuchsia City, Icefall Cave, Ruin Valley, Viridian City, Safari Zone
