>>50829833A lot of things in Crystal is ambiguous and unsolved to let player create their own narrative. Hell, even Silver was part of it - daddy issues literally were not a thing before FRLG arc of Pokemon manga, he was just some very immature kiddo with hateboner for weaklings and TR and it was you who was supposed to make up reason why.
Sadly this kind of open narrative is dying off because modern media consumers demand everything to be served up on golden plate and every little tidbit having 1000+ words article on some wikia or they are getting mental breakdown, spasms and accuse authors of being nazi transphobes.
