[[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. However, it lost to [[Ash's Staraptor]], which evolved in the middle of their competition. Paul scolded it after its loss, saying that its reaction time was too slow.
