I hope.....the reason I want a shiny is because I ant to see his overworld and see Silver's mouth drop when I present him with something rare and strong!
Of course, that would never happen in-game and probably, because Silver's watching you while you pick out your starter, his mouth will drop once he sees it with you, so he won't be surprised when you first battle him.
cant wait tell ruby and sapphire remakes are out i heard heart gold and soul silver was just a test to see how popular they still where cuase people hated shinnoh
