Dratini...fishable?

So I know the wiki says you can fish up Dratini at a 1% chance in the Suntouched Exitway, or Dragonaire on Route 5, but I’ve been fishing for upward of 3 hours, likely having experienced over 300 fishing encounters between the two locations, and haven’t even seen 1. Is this fishing info accurate?

The way probability works is not cumulative. In probability, we would expect you to get one after roughly 100 tries, but even on that hundredth try, your probability is 1/100. So it might take a lot longer still, though you should see one soon, don’t get your hopes up.

I understand probability–which is exactly why I came here to check on the accuracy of said probability.

If you’re like me (and I sure hope you’re not) every time you see a % that’s not 100% always divide it by 3 (or 4 if it’s under 50%). I find it way more accurate that way.

Dratini is only a 1% encounter when fishing with the Super Rod. It isn’t obtainable with the Old Rod or Good Rod.
