[[Paul]]'s Murkrow evolved into a {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}} prior to ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''. Honchkrow made its first physical appearance in ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy]]'' where it battled against {{AP|Ash's Turtwig|Grotle}}. It appeared again in ''[[DP118|Pursuing a Lofty Goal!]]'' where Paul enters it in a [[PokéRinger]] competition.
