For the first few weeks/months they know each other, Kris cannot, for the life of her, remember Silver’s name properly.
She starts off calling him Shiba シバ (”I’m not a dog, asshole!”).
Then Kinzoku 金属 because she remembers that his name is a metal, but that’s about it.
Then Gin 銀, because she doesn’t remember the English word for it, but she knows that that’s what his name is supposed to be.
They both get excessively excited when she calls him by the right name (without correction) for the first time.
Because apparently a lot of people named him “???” first time round without realizing you could actually give him a name and I still think that’s funny as hell.
I wanted to pointed out how much Silver has changed from the Gold/Silver/and Crystal arcs from the Heartgold/Soulsilver arc because I love it. (I’m not counting the FR/LF because there wasn’t entirely much, and Emerald arc because okay come on you know why)
