'''Mt. Silver Cave''' (Japanese: '''シロガネやまどうくつ''' ''Mt. Shirogane Cave'') is a large mountain and its accompanying cave system in [[Johto]], located west of {{ka|Victory Road}} and [[Indigo Plateau]]. Mt. Silver Cave can be reached from '''[[Mt. Silver]]''' at the foot of the mountain proper in [[Kanto]], after receiving the sixteen Gym [[Badge]]s of both Johto and Kanto. In [[Generation II]], both areas are known collectively as '''Silver Cave''' (Japanese: '''シロガネやま''' ''Mt. Shirogane'').
 
At the very summit of Mt. Silver Cave, the {{player}} may battle {{ga|Red}}. If defeated, Red vanishes from Mt. Silver Cave, and returns every time the [[Elite Four]] is defeated again by the player. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, {{p|Moltres}} can also be found here.
 
==Geography==
In the games, Mt. Silver Cave is off-limits to all but the most skilled of Trainers. After the {{player}} has received all sixteen badges of Johto and Kanto, [[Professor Oak]] will give the player permission to travel here.
 
At the foot of Mt. Silver Cave, i.e. located in [[Mt. Silver]], there is a [[Pokémon Center]] just outside its entrance. Inside, however, the cave is dark, requiring {{m|Flash}} to see in the first room. Many high-level Pokémon reside in the cave, as well as rare Pokémon not found elsewhere in the Johto region, like {{p|Larvitar}} and {{p|Misdreavus}}.
 
The cave has only one entrance, unlike all other caves found in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, but goes deep into the mountain. In the cave's final room, the player will encounter {{ga|Red}}, who will wordlessly challenge the player to what is the highest-leveled Trainer battle in the Pokémon series. If defeated, Red will vanish, and will only return for another battle after the player defeats the Elite Four again.
 
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Mt. Silver Cave is much larger than before. {{m|Flash}} is no longer needed to light up the cave. The higher sections of the cave, where Red is located, require {{m|Rock Climb}} to be accessible. At times, the player must also venture onto the slopes on the mountain's sides in order to climb higher. In addition, a {{weather|hail|heavy snowfall}} is present at the summit, which assumes the hail weather condition in battle; this weather becomes {{weather|diamond dust}} on certain days, which disables the hail weather condition in battle.

==Trivia==
* {{ga|Red's Pikachu}}, who can be fought here at [[level]] 88 in HeartGold and SoulSilver, is the highest-leveled {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of any in-game {{pkmn|Trainer}} not in a [[battle facility]] in the [[core series]], tied with [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}.
* In the original player's guide for {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, there is mention of a "?" {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that appears near the {{OBP|waterfall|obstacle}}s in Mt. Silver at midnight or very early in the morning; however, this was a false rumor. The guide also claimed that the unknown Pokémon was supposed to represent [[Legendary Pokémon]] found in the [[Generation I]] games that did not appear in Gold and Silver (which were programmed in and [[Trade|tradable]] from Generation I anyway).
* Like [[Snowpoint City]], Mt. Silver's summit features {{DL|Easter egg|diamond dust}} on certain special days in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, including the anniversary of the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} in Japan.
** Mt. Silver is also the only location in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} where a naturally occurring {{weather|hail}}storm can be experienced.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, whenever the player is in or on the mountain, the location header pop-up is always "Mt. Silver Cave", even when the player is not inside the cave. This may possibly be a carryover from the original games, in which the in-game location header was "Silver Cave".
* [[Fresh Water]] is collected from Mt. Silver, according to the Japanese item description in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and {{g|Stadium 2}}. This is also mentioned in the Korean item description in Pokémon Gold and Silver. However, this is not mentioned in the English item descriptions.
 
===Origin===
Mt. Silver is based on {{wp|Mt. Fuji}} in the real-world {{wp|Japan}}.
