Or for anything else, for that matter, save for taking up space in his inventory. It had seemed like a great idea at the time, but he already had a Water-type, had since he started the game, and as fun as Gyarados could get, he wasn't giving up Arecibo that easily. In fact, he had the Frogadier out with him now, the Pokemon able to guard him from threats in both land and water. And while collecting the different kinds of Magikarp had sounded like fun, bag space was at a premium these days. But there was no use spending the Bytes on a Fishing Rod and not testing it out at least once, right? Maybe it would prove more addicting than he thought. And it wasn't like he had any other goal to go after at the moment, save for a vague yearning for more Bytes to spend... Genesis started by getting out their Fishing Rod at the Pitch Black Fountain, naturally enough. Well, maybe it wasn't the first place most people would think to go fishing, but Genesis wasn't most people, and they were intrigued by the concept of it. Would the fish come out of the water stained black, temporarily or permanently? Would the fountain's inky waters have any other effect on their catch? It was just obscure enough that Genesis could see something being hidden away here for those who thought to try fishing in such an odd location, and if something was hidden there, Genesis wanted to be the first to know about it. Besides, the Fountain wasn't that ugly, really. They'd seen worse at art museums before. Though maybe that wasn't such a high bar to pass after all... @redead

One that he intended to test out for a bit! Searching around for a fishing hole that was occupied was actually harder than it looked. Since everyone and their mother was doing the event - crowding spots in duos and couples. Eventually, he found one - in the middle of the Western District at the Pitch Black Fountain. It wasn't the ideal spot - but it was manageable. Not only that, there was only one other person nearby. That was a good sign, at least. Barinade, his Dewpider scurried behind him. Clicking its mandibles as it followed its "Father" diligently. Noticing the black water - it clicked and lacked before speaking. <Water! Can I jump in, Father?> Redead laughed but shook his head denying the Bug pokemon's request. "Sorry, but it looks like it's already in use. Maybe another time." Speaking of... "Heyo~! Nice day to fish, eh? Mind if I join ya?"

He'd forgotten about the event, but that certainly seemed more promising than fishing up endless Magikarp... and while he hadn't thought to arrange finding a fishing partner for himself, it seemed that serendipity had managed that part already. Good thing it wasn't too crowded here, though. The regular fishing spots were probably nuts right about now. Another reason this spot had been a good choice. "Sure, not a problem. The event calls for working together, after all, doesn't it?" A moment later, Genesis realized that they'd connected dots that might not have been connected after all, and he hastened to add, "I assume you're here for that new fishing event, anyway. Or are you just here for the love of regular fishing?" Did that come out harsh? He hadn't meant to sound harsh, really... but explaining himself further seemed likely to just cause even more problems... @redead
