Paul's only concern in his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is of their strength in {{pkmn|battle}}. He strongly dislikes weak Pokémon and has a habit of {{pkmn2|released|releasing}} them if they do not meet his high expectations. To this effect, Paul always checks new {{pkmn2|caught|captures}} with his [[Pokédex]] to learn what [[move]]s they know and {{pkmn|training|trains}} the Pokémon he keeps harshly to make them strong. He feels that [[friendship|bonding]] with Pokémon would only turn them into slackers. He also has a habit of scolding his Pokémon for losing to opponents he feels they could have beaten | Paul's only concern in his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is of their strength in {{pkmn|battle}}.

As a person, he is very callous at times and even brutal, especially in {{pkmn|battle}} and as a result, he has been shown to display very little emotion other than an occasional rough smile. [[File:Reggie and Paul.png|left|thumb|250px|Reggie and Paul]] | |||
Sometimes, he gives some of his Pokémon to his brother, [[Reggie]], for temporary training and caretaking, as revealed in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''. Paul also disagrees with his brother for giving up on being a [[Pokémon Trainer]] after failing to get the [[Symbol|Brave Symbol]]. He feels his brother's approach and view on this to be wrong. Reggie cares about his brother and ultimately loves him as brother but has no illusions about Paul's character. He openly admits sadly that Paul has always had a cruel streak. | Sometimes, he gives some of his Pokémon to his brother, [[Reggie]], for temporary training and caretaking, as revealed in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''.
