Overworld[]
The Fishing Rod allows the player to fish in any body of water that is close enough to be reached. When something pops up, a minigame requiring the player to connect five dots appears. The player has five seconds to complete each one, and each completion adds two seconds to the timer. The player must complete the minigame three times before the timer runs out or the cast fails. If the player has unlocked Fishing Proficiency from Trainer Mastery Level 25, the minigame only needs to be completed twice, and if the player has unlocked Fishing Proficiency+ from Trainer Mastery Level 67, the minigame only needs to be completed once. The following are the Loomians found in each body of water:
| Location | Loomian |
|---|---|
| Mitis Town | Goppie |
| Route 2 | Goppie, Swimp |
| Route 4 | Goppie, Swimp |
| Route 5 | None |
| Heiwa Village | Goppie |
| Route 8 | Goppie, Pwuff |
| Lotusun Beach | Goppie, Pwuff, Cavenish, Sharpod Note: Musty Boots, Rusty Cans, Junk Tires, and Worn Ropes can also be reeled up while fishing here. |
| Bob's Pond | Goppie Note: Different variations of Goppie can be found here. |

A green ring appearing around JamiyJamie that signals the Gleaming chance bonus.
If the player completes the minigame before the timer reaches halfway, a green ring will appear before the encounter to indicate a 25% increase in chance for obtaining a Gleaming Loomian. The following are the chances with boosts active:
