Even if he someho does retain some ability to reproduce, i doubt that can still happen due to the fact he is never depicted showing the emotio or ability to 'love; on the visible similar scale of Amy Rose (With Sonic not returning it). We can tell that the concept of empathy and sympathy is understood by him in both comics and games. We can see he relates to Maria as a close sister, sibling or close friend, but never close to the point of legit love either with her or any other characters (despite what fanfic says that it should). Also comes the issue of bestiatility which I dont want to go into (Sonic 06 *Cough*).

Also no evidence of power inheritence in the Sega universe, so say goodbye to Silver inheriting chaos/kronos control without the need of an Emerald power from Shadow.
