@grayfox3635 All last names are products of the dub. Ketchum was made as a pun on catch em all and because Satoshi is too long compared to Ash. That was actually the reason why Naruto used the believe it catchphrase. Apparently he had a quirk of saying Dattebayo at first and they used believe it to match the lip synching.
@grayfox3635 Not rocket for a person's name in general- by japanese standards that'd be kinda normal in a game. but "team rocket", and indeed all the team names- they may vary in how awesome they are, the teams themselves, but all their selected team names are stupid and confusing.
@ShinyPichu12345 If that's the case, why is Ghetsis' last name Harmonia? Other than the fact that N Harmonia sounds like enharmonic (two or more notes that are different, yet produce the same sound.), but that's N, not Ghetsis o_o
In the games, Silver DID know his dad (Giovanni) was the leader of Team Rocket. When Giovanni was defeated by Red and was abandoning Team Rocket, Silver came and he said that he was acting like a coward when he was alone and acting like a tyrant when he was around Team Rocket grunts and Silver says that he could become strong on his own.
Heh, I found my Gold-game from my bigbro´s room couple of weeks ago and tried it. I battled against silver again and it was very exciting. I love him <3<3<3 but when I save the game it always disappear. It´s really annoying... grrr....
@GreenRed4eva that means the watch battery is prob messed up just replace it with another watch battery and it should save just as long as the battery is the same size as the other battery it happen to my version b4
I did, but I probably shoulda called him jerk on reflection,seeing as he steals pokemon and is always shoving your character out of the way, douche probably fits Gary better

BLUE IS GIOVANNI'S SON, DAMMIT! WHY THE HELL ELSE WOULD HE BE THE ONE RUNNING GIOVANNI'S GYM?!! And in FR/LG, Blue is supposed to have red hair (but not literally like the HG/SS rival).
@Bulzeeb15 *spit take* YOU ARE OFFICIALLY AWESOME. Silver is my favourite rival, and Knuckles is my favourite Sonic character, but for some reason I never thought about that until you brought it up!
@sableyeman:Giovanni is the leader of TEAM ROCKET,did REALLY HORRIBLE stuff to Mewtwo,ABANDONED his OWN SON,and LOCKS his POKEMON in CAGES when he's not battling with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Descriptive enough for ya?!
@LadyLimstella That's what I think. After all, she was in the original games and had red hair back then too. Also, she really stands for finding Giovanni, so it's a 75% chance that she is Silver's mom.
@Junior27z Who? I think that Arianna is Silver's mother (their hair-style are almost the exact same and she's a Rocket Executive). I can't think of anyone else who could be his mother... So please, I want to know who you think is his mother.
@ChampionRevilo Yeah, I think she is.I'm almost done with the video. I'll have my *cough(opinions)cough* video up by Wednesday. I am thinking of emailing Nintendo about this,though. Anyway, it would explain the red hair and a lot of other stuff.
I do kinda feel sorry for him 'cause his dad is Giovanni,who is a bad man as everybody knows. Even though he IS mean most of the time,I feel sorry for him.
