'''Mt. Silver''' (Japanese: '''シロガネ{{tt|山|やま}}''' ''Mt. Shirogane'') is a large mountain in [[Johto]] located west of {{ka|Victory Road}} and [[Indigo Plateau]]. The location is also referred to as '''Silver Cave''' (Japanese: '''シロガネやま''' ''Mt. Shirogane'') in  {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} or '''Mt. Silver Cave''' (Japanese: '''シロガネやまどうくつ''' ''Mt. Shirogane Cave'') in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. Mt. Silver can be reached from [[Kanto]] via {{rt|28|Kanto}} after receiving the sixteen Gym [[Badge]]s of both Johto and Kanto. At the very summit of Mt. Silver, the {{player}} may battle {{ga|Red}}. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, {{p|Moltres}} can also be found here.

A field based on Mt. Silver also appears in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]'s Kanto [[Gym Leader Castle]].

[[Kanto Route 28|The route]] to the area is rough, though no [[HM]]s are explicitly required to reach the [[Pokémon Center]] just outside the 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 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.
