Drapion next battled [[Ash's Staraptor]]. It managed to dodge all of Staraptor's moves and used Pin Missile which threw Staraptor to the ground and caused it to get knocked out by Toxic Spikes.

Despite Buizel's efforts, using his [[Counter Shield]], Drapion was able to defeat him in ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]'' with a combination of {{m|Pin Missile}} and {{m|Toxic Spikes}}.

It then went up against Ash's {{AP|Torterra}}, who felt the effect of Toxic Spikes upon being release from its Poké Ball. Torterra did manage to plant a few hits on Drapion but it regained the upper-hand after using {{m|Poison Fang}}. Torterra tried to recover with its {{m|Synthesis}} but was knocked out after being hit by Pin Missile. Paul then recalled Drapion after its third victory.

Later, Drapion was used to battle [[Ash's Gliscor]]. Unlike before, Gliscor proved too quick for Drapion to keep up with and it managed to attack with {{m|Giga Impact}} before Drapion could make a move. Still it put up a fight with Pin Missile. In the end, it was knocked out after being {{status|burned}} from Gliscor's {{m|Fire Fang}} in ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]''. It was the third Pokémon called out by Paul in the battle, and the only one that was recalled by him during the entire battle.

* Paul was first revealed to the fandom through a [[CoroCoro]] scan that showed him alongside Ash and Dawn commanding a {{AP|Chimchar}}. However, his name and role was not revealed until the following week and so he received the fan name "Nugai" (a pun derived from "new guy") during that time.
