Regardless of their meaning of truly "hybrids" it is obvious by visual that both Manik and Sonia take the species respective of the genders of their parents. This so for Future Tails and Mina's kids.

However I manage to notice that pure-blooded offsprings born from parents of the same species result in single births and rarely twins. This is so for Cream and Lara-su where they are born single-childs or one-at-a-time. In such a case, it is possible that Argyle's mother may really be a crocodile like Vector since he is both born a Crocodile but is also (at least with the info we have) a single-child, like Lara-su too. This is also prevalent  with Cream the Rabbit in both Sega and Archie. In such a case, we could be confident to say that Cream's father would also have been a rabbit. Funny thing is, Cream is the key to Mobian biology between Sega and Archie universe.

Therefore, we can go down Silver's family tree slightly. Since he is most likely a single child (no mention of siblings by either Sega or Archie) means he is possibly born of a pure-blooded Hedgehog family, but that doesnt mean his great or great great gramps or other relatives were necessarily hedgehogs too. But thats only scratching the surface. We need to go deeper.

For Sega Silver, we are not only limiting our options, but also limiting information to access in order to produce a consitent theory to work off of.

For Archie Silver, we are given more options and more information, down side is, their relatives could be almost anyone and any species in between and thus, it would be probably lost and impossible to track down.

Also I think Sega mandates stop familial relationships or existences (besides Chuck) so that basically puts a spanner in the works.

Silver being Manik's great-grea-great grandson/nephew or whatevever would sound interesting to me tho,
