Personality

Silver is a power-hungry, intensely snobbish, greedy, cruel, callous, cunning, unsympathetic, rude, short-tempered, grouchy, and rather villainous character in the games. In Gold and Silver (Generation II), he steals a starter Pokémon from the lab and is extremely rude and bad-tempered toward the player. He later steals a Sneasel from an unknown trainer further showing his cold nature. He will occasionally challenge the player, and will become enraged when defeated. He doesn't treat his Pokémon with respect, but rather as fighting machines to make him appear powerful and menacing. However, later in the game, he begins to recognize the error of his ways when the player continuously thwarts him.

He is the son of Giovanni, the Boss of Team Rocket, so he likely grew up to be an ill-mannered and villainous person because of his upbringing. He apparently despises Team Rocket and has a lot of hatred within him.

Trivia

  • Despite Magneton and Sneasel gaining evolutions in Generation IV, Silver's Magneton and Sneasel do not evolve into their final forms when battled at their highest levels. This may be due to Magneton needing Mt. Coronet to evolve and Sneasel needing a Razor Claw.
  • Silver's team in Pokémon Stadium 2 consisted of Mewtwo, Lugia, and Ho-Oh, all of them being legendary Pokémon.
  • Silver's eye color in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver differs between the artwork and the game. In the artwork, his eyes are grey, while in the game opening, his eyes are red.
  • During the special Celebi event, Silver is found in the past arguing with his Father.
  • Before it was revealed that Silver is Giovanni's son, in FireRed and LeafGreen, when Red confronts a Rocket Scientist, he mistook the former for Giovanni's son, only to remember that his son had red hair.
  • In the game and Pokémon Adventures, Silver is Giovanni's son. However, in the anime, Silver (the rival who appeared in the Japanese opening of Legend of Thunder) was never mentioned to be Giovanni's son and neither Giovanni did mention about his son in the anime series.
  • Silver is the only rival without a canon name even in the Gold and Silver remakes.
  • For a good majority of Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, Heartgold, and Soulsilver Versions, Silver's Golbat was unevovled. Once began to treat his Pokémon with kindness, however, it was revealed to have evolved into Crobat, due to the fact that Golbat evolves into Crobat through friendship.
  • Silver begins his journey at around 10 years of age. In the official timeline, Gen II parallels Gen IV, and takes place three years after Gen I /Gen III/ORAS. Since Red is around the ages of 21-31 as of Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, that would make Silver around 18-28 years of age by the same time period.
