Is there any way to suggest that Silver is "Giovanni's red-haired son" without causing a discussion that would span for 40 days and 40 nights, break for an hour, then start up again? --Meowth346

What if we classified it as "heavily implied?" Since, it seems to be. Cheesedude 03:19, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Sneasel

If I'm remembering correctly, Silver steals his Sneasel from a guy in Cianwood. He gives Gold his Shuckle so Silve dosen't come back and steal that, too. That seems pretty relevant to me....Cheesedude 03:19, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia's article on Silver is MUCH more detailed, which is odd, since this is Bulbapedia....Cheesedude 03:20, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

responding to this a year later -_- Anyway if you have a look at Silver's non-starter Pokémon they are all more or less sweeper-based in stats. Shuckle has no offensive powers really, and the only time it has them is when it sacrifices all its defense (and its still too slow to be any good). I doubt Silver wanted it.--Outrage DD 19:10, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, I definitely think that Silver steals his Sneasel from the guy in Cianwood, since he has it in a point of the game where you can't get it at that point yet. Chocolate 19:12, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Crobat?

...how does having a Crobat show that he loves his Pokémon? TinaTheKirliaFile:281MS.gif 19:36, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Because this means that his Pokémon love him, 'cause Golbat will evolve just if its Happiness is at maximum. And, a Pokémon can't be happy if the Trainer don't care about them, just if the Trainer really loves the Pokémom.うずまきハルカ 20:05, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah but, there are other ways too get your Pokémon to love you, loads of others, so it doesn't really mean he loved his Crobat in return. I'd look here for more info xD Takoto タコト| サソデイ = 愛 21:43, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Sprite

I want to update the battle info to the new standard, but first, I need to know this: Do we currently have the Silver sprite uploaded? 'Cause we really need it for the template. --Chocolate (talk to me) 01:53, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Do you have the moveset too? tc26 01:58, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Check silversprite 1 and 2 tc26 02:15, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
I don't quite have the movesets, but I do know this: In Generation I, the 4 moves were always the most recent 4 moves that a Pokémon would know it its level. So, when I'm putting the table, I'll do it like that until someone else can confirm otherwise. --Chocolate (talk to me) 02:19, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
They've got movesets and stuff if you search hard enough in a GSC walkthrough on GameFAQs.com. Gligar 02:25, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Well, can someone more experienced update the battle info? I'm a bit too tired to do it right now. --Chocolate (talk to me) 02:42, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
I can do it. tc26 02:48, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Why does the article has a Crystal sprite if it's the same as in Gold and Silver? The correct thing is to put a list of all the sprites and their variations like in Green's/Blue's article. Pokemon lover 21:51, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Kamon?

Do we really need to mention that name? It's just the first player name choice for the Silver version, and Hiroki (the first for Gold) isn't the name used by Gold's Anime equivalent (Kenta). "Mentioned on an Anime website"? What site? Sounds like fanwank to me. Satosuke 13:54, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, ArcToraphim. Satosuke 15:56, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

i think the original japanese you guys have in here for silver its not the right one cause while i put it in pokeani it appeared richie.

シルバ is correct. Pokéani isn’t really the best source. (See also: the recent removal of all the gym leader titles taken from Pokéani.) IIMarckus 19:52, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Picture of Anime Debut

I just saw that it had all the text on it. If I possibly could, would it be acceptable for me to find one without text and replace the current one? シンジShinjiLover,Edits 07:39, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

By all means go ahead. -Sketch 00:07, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Optional names?

Where are his optional name? Lovely Rose 20:04, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Not here. Anyone got GSC? Go find out for us. — THE TROM — 01:56, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
I... don't think he has any. It enters "SILVER" in Gold and Crystal, and "GOLD" in Silver, but other than that... nothing. TTEchidna 02:03, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
Would that be 50/50 split in Crystal? - unsigned comment from Cat2killer (talkcontribs)

Anime Counterpart

Isn't Paul Silver's anime counterpart, but it said on this page. --∫∆π©∑一二三 09:15, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah... that page lied.... naughty page... it's all better now. — THE TROM — 09:43, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Silver's new design

Serebii has uploaded a scan showing Silver's redesign for the remakes, but the pic is too small [1]

I was wondering if anyone has a link to a bigger one, so that we can upload a decent image with his new design and update the article. -- Pokéman 12:05, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Even if there WAS a decent version of this scan, there is no way it would be put in the article. just wait for the official site to update with the art. There is no reason for crappy quality art to be used. -Sketch 12:14, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Filb.de and PokéBeach. Basically the same though. I agree, wait for the site. They're incomplete. The site may update this weekend, the next one or the one after that. tc²₆tc26 12:40, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Sketch: Even if we don't replace the main image, shouldn't we add the scan with the redesign somewhere in the article?
Tc26: Thanks. I had checked PokéBeach and Filb.de before writing the comment, but they hadn't updated with the new scans yet. -Pokéman 13:15, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
No, because it's low quality. Just wait for the site to update. It won't take long. -Sketch 13:23, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

HGSS sprite

Why does silver's HGSS sprite keep getting remove from the article? ShinyPika 20:13, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Because we don't know it's final, just like we don't know if any of the other revealed sprites are final. Remember that Weavile and Munchlax got changed after being revealed for D/P, and a bunch of others that hadn't been revealed probably got changed too. R.A. Hunter Blade 21:08, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
