* AmbiguouslyEvil: Forever the Houndoom is a Dark-Type Pokémon, which are always this, [[spoiler: and obtained via trade, Pokémon obtained via trade being disobedient]]. It also doesn't help that the Unown in the Ruins route spell "DIE". However, Gold managed to obtain all badges required to obtain the loyalty of outsider Pokémon by the time [[spoiler: he died]], but that leaves the question: if the word "DIE" doesn't have anything to do with Forever, then [[GreaterScopeVillain with]] [[NothingIsScarier who]]...?

* ThePowerOfHate: Red's Pikachu uses the move Frustration, which is more powerful the more the user hates its trainer. Considering that it reduced Away the Celebi's HP to 1, that Pikachu must ''despise'' Red. This is further supported by its updated ''Re: Lost Silver'' sprite, where its expression is more clearly resentful.

* DeadlyDistantFinale: The story’s entire premise hinges on Gold, the protagonist of the original game, being dead, and seems to take place in some form of purgatory where he comes to terms with his demise. Going by the Ruins route, [[TheRival Silver]] didn’t outlive Gold by too much either.

* DistantFinale: The game is set during the future, when Gold is already long-dead, though exactly how long the game takes place after the events of the original Generation II trilogy is never elaborated on.

* TheAtoner: Silver in the Ruins route is implied to be this, as it sends out five level 5 Unown who spell out "SORRY", before sending out his young Totodile. Whether he's atoning for his mistreatment of his Pokémon or something he did to Gold is left ambiguous, but either way it results in his sprite becoming [[RedemptionEqualsDeath horribly mutilated]] after the battle.
