Mt. Silver (Japanese: シロガネやま Shirogane Mountain) is a large mountain in Johto located west of Victory Road and the Indigo Plateau. Mt. Silver can be reached from Kanto via Route 28 after receiving the sixteen gym badges of both Johto and Kanto. Deep in the caves of Mt. Silver, a trainer may battle with Red. In the anime, it is the home of Silver Town.

Demographics
The demographics for Mt. Silver are as follows:
In the games
In the games, the population is 1 or 2, if they do indeed live at Mt. Silver, as opposed to being merely visitors. This low number is likely because access to the area is off-limits to almost everyone except the world's best trainers.
In the anime
In the anime, Mt. Silver is the home of Silver Town, a city that boasts at least 30 inhabitants. Silver Town's main attraction is the Silver Conference, a yearly event that brings tourism to the city.
Trivia
- Mt. Silver was called Shirogane Mt. in the Gold and Silver "Deluxe edition" of the Pokémon Master Trainer board game. Because its release predated that of the games, it used the Japanese name.
- Despite appearing to be closer to the Johto-Kanto border on the Town Map, the Pokémon Center is 17 steps from the border when factoring in only horizontial distance, making it 10 steps farther from Kanto than the player character's house.
