Lake of Rage Fishing Guru

In the Generation II games, a man known as the Fishing Guru lives at Lake of Rage. His greatest dream is to see the world's largest Magikarp, and he regularly measures those brought to him in order to realize it.

Fuchsia City Fishing Guru

In Generations I and III, the older brother of the Vermilion Fishing Guru gives away a Good Rod.

Other "Fishing Gurus"

Many other characters give fishing rods to players. In the Pokémon fandom, these have all become unofficially known as fishing gurus, even though they are not referred to as such in-game.

  • In Generation II, a man in the Route 32 Pokémon Center gives the player an Old Rod.
  • In Generation III, a man near the Gym in Dewford Town gives the player an Old Rod.
  • In the Generation IV games a man who is in the house that connects Jubilife City to Route 218 gives the player an Old Rod.
  • In Generation II, a man who has fished in Olivine City for 30 years gives the player a Good Rod in the Olivine Cafe.
  • In the Generation III games, a man is on Route 118 gives the player a Good Rod.

  • In the Generation III games, a man who is in a house by the Mossdeep Space Center gives the player a Super Rod.

Trivia

  • Although in Generation I the Fuchsia Guru claims to be older than the Vermilion Guru, in Generation II the Guru in Vermilion claims to be the eldest of the brothers. This could perhaps be explained by the brothers moving around—in fact, it could be that there is only one Fishing Guru (from Vermilion in Generations I and III and from Lake of Rage in Generation II).
