Old Rod

The Old Rod is the most basic fishing rod in Pixelmon. It is crafted like a vanilla fishing rod, but with a Poké Ball at the end. An Old Rod is able to catch common Pokémon. It is used in a similar way as a Minecraft fishing rod, although when a Pokémon is hooked, a "!" will appear in the chatbox rather than the bob being pulled down, similar to fishing in the Pokémon games. This is available to be done in both Water and Lava. It is a possible drop from common and uncommon boss Pokémon.
