Question: Pokemon Hyetology

I hope I'm in the right place. I didn't see any rules for this area other that this is for all thinks pokecommunity. I recently got Pokemon Hyetology and beat the second gym. I talked to everybody in the town and got Surf. I'm stuck and am unable to progress because I can't find a water pokemon to teach surf to. Am I overlooking something here? I don't seem to find anybody who will give me a fishing rod and I also don't have a pokemon with rock smash so R15 and R16 are unavailable to me right now. Anybody know what I'm missing?

yeah, this is for PokeCommunity issues only (meaning issues about the site itself). this isn't a section to ask about rom hacks, sorry. :c

since the Hyetology thread is sorta old, i recommend you ask in this thread and see if anyone is able to help you out ^^;
