Silver has a fascination with {{p|Moltres}}, stemming back to when he saw it one night when he was just a boy. From that day, his ultimate goal was to find and {{pkmn|battle}} the [[legendary birds|legendary bird]]. [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] of [[Team Rocket]] made use of this in a plan to capture Moltres but Silver stopped them when he learned their full plan. He did get to have the battle he had dreamed of but it had to be abandoned half-way through due to the eruption of the volcano they were on. Deciding he could wait a little longer, Silver stayed on the island in hopes of battling Moltres when it returned.

==Similarities to Ash and Ritchie==
<!--==Similarities to Ash and Ritchie==
During the episode, much comparison is made between Silver and Ritchie with Silver even noting that Ritchie reminds him of himself when he was younger. Ritchie then goes on to say that the same features are present in {{Ash}}.

Line 37: Line 42:


Silver actually appears to know of Ash, though there has been no further detail on this so far. As a result, he is now considered to be one of the three main candidates to be Ash's father (the other two being {{an|Giovanni}} and {{an|Professor Oak}}). It should be noted, however, that his knowledge of Ash could easily been from watching him on television in [[Pokémon League Conference]]s, much as [[Max]] did.
