But save for a few scenes with girls he hasn't taken the lead because he's still resisting his sexual side. When he mellows out a bit, he'll become a little more sexually aggressive and TAKE initiative. For now, others lead because he really doesn't know what the hell he's doing.
It's amazing how many excuses you'll find for your Silver being shit.
Also, seconding what other anons have said in you really not knowing when to quit. Stop commenting here and go work on improving your characterization instead.
I am trying to be reasonable with you, but I'm getting the impression you're bound and determined to mark any explanation I try and give as an 'excuse'.
Above, the anon asks if Silver is 'passive' in canon. Since obviously there is no sex in Pokemon canon, I took that to mean his other actions. In canon, Silver is a pushy bully who kicks people and steals their Pokemon. He has a huge chip on his shoulder and seems to think he's better than everyone.
I always got the impression, however, that Silver was one of those kids who is a lot of pomp and circumstance but not as strong as he wants everyone to believe he is. I mean if he was as solid in his convictions as he claims, he would not be turning towards a different way of thinking like he is by the end of the game just because he got beat in a bunch of Pokemon battles.
I don't think it'd be right to have him take the 'lead' in sexual situations right away because I don't see him as having any experience. He's been all about being Pokemon champion and nothing else so far, and he plays himself to be the cool 'loner' type - I couldn't see him thinking there's anything worthwhile about relationships. He's still trying to convince himself it's all the chip that gives him these desires, and trying to take the lead in sexual encounters would be like admitting he wants to do this. He's in denial.
My intention is to eventually have him be more aggressive and take charge once he's had sex with someone a few times. Once he gets more used to the situation and is able to override his total lack of experience in his area and wants to show off how much better he is at everything once again.
