If 당신 are here wondering why someone would pair these two characters up. I will give 당신 why I support this shipping. It was simple the plot of the game of HG/SS. Which kinda only makes sense if 당신 play the girl but it is usually the girls that make the pairings so kinda of works out. So anyways it starts at the Goldenrod Radio Tower during the whole Team Rocket take over. Silver(note he is the rival, his character was based off from the 망가 Pokemon Special)is mad to see your character(Kotone/Lyra from the pokemon anime)in the Team Rocket uniform and kinda of just it off 당신 (perv)and tells Kotone that she's better than that and shows some concern towards Kotone. Also when he acknowledge Kotone openly at Mt. Moon helps a little. But what really puts the fuel on the 불, 화재 for the support of this pairing is at Dragon's 굴, 덴 when 당신 find Silver near the Dragon's Shine, Lance and Clair come up. Lance was going to have Kotone as his partner for a tag battle but Silver pushed Clair aside and declared Kotone as his partner. Not to mention how he constantly tries to prove himself in Kotone's eye 의해 battling her.
