I would say the term Control Rod and Control Link are the same. Fixed controls can be designed with different types of rods or tubes and different types of joints where they connect.

The term "link" usually describe the entire control mechanism. This could include bell cranks that transmit rotational motion.

A rod end is usually a solid steel fitting that has a mono-ball bearing and this rod end is fitted into a hollow tube. Some hollow links are just flattened and hole drilled in it to made a swivel joint. But they still could either be called a rod or link.

Is a good rod the same thing as a great rod cause I am trying to catch a Shelldar and it says use a great rod I have a good rod but I don't know if it is the same thing?

In the English version, there is no Great Rod, but Shellder can be caught with Super Rod, which is probably what was meant. (A 5% chance, all times of day, at Valley Windworks, Fuego Ironworks, and southern Route 205; levels range from 20-50.) To get the Super Rod, you have to have beaten the Elite Four and obtained the National Dex, then talk to the Fisherman in the Fight Area of the Battle Frontier island.


Is the rod shaped bacteria good bacteria or bad bacteria?

No such thing as "bad bacteria" and "good bacteria" because they are all one and the same (though not literally) and can be affected by the same thing if the "bad" bacteria is targeted. A rod-shaped bacterium can be any bacterial species, "good" or "bad."
