yes you need the rod to catch magikarp just like the pokeball the rod is an upgrade for it that allows you to catch magikarp
also it can be trained im going for gyrados and it only knows splash that doesnt do anything mine is level 11 you catch it at 10 and its hard as hell to train
omg... i never saw that you posted zubat code....
Edit: YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
