• Crystal is also shipped with Silver, forming SilverCrystallineShipping and/or SpecialJewelShipping, which is F/M, aka NL. In Japanese, this is called シルクリ or 元祖ライ主♀, meaning Silver attacks and Crystal receives in the coupling.
  • シルクリ is shared between Gameverse and Pokéspe. In English, Kris x Silver is known as RedemptionShipping.
    • In Japanese, ライ主♀, which refers to any Female!Protagonist x Rival pairing except PokéAni, includes this ship under its umbrella.

• Crystal is also shipped with Yellow, forming SweetHeartShipping, which is F/F, aka Girls' Love. In Japanese, this is most often called [x].
• Together, Gold, Silver, Crystal make up the Johto Trio.
  • In Japanese, their gen (combi in Japanese) relationship is called ジョウトリオ, meaning Johto Trio. This is not to be confused with 城都トリオ, which is this same group but for the Gameverse. ジョウト組 may also be used, though that just translates as Johto Group, so it includes any large group of Johto characters.
