Paul's Japanese name is Shinji and it means faithful second son right? Well its been implied that Silver is Giovanni's son and similarities have been shown between Paul and Silver right? So what if Paul is Giovanni's second son? but that's crazy right?

:It's crazy, but there is no known relation between Paul and Giovanni. Paul is Reggie's younger brother. So since Reggie is older, that makes (whoever their father is) Paul the second son. I don't know of any relatives to Paul, except Reggie. There are rumors that Giovanni, Silver and Pyramid King Brandon are (one of them) related to Paul; namely, his father. There are also rumors that Professor Ivy and Hall Matron Argenta could be related to Paul; namely, his mother. There are also rumors that he is somehow related to Anabel, Lucian and Will. However, if any relation to Lucian and Will existed, they would have to be cousins, otherwise, Paul would be the third (if only Will/Lucian is his brother) son or the fourth son (if Will and Lucian are his brothers). Shinji is unaffected if Anabel was his sister, because Reggie is still older and is the first son. However, these are all rumors and Paul has no known relatives outside of Reggie. If Curtainshipping (Reggie/Maylene) were canon, Maylene would be Paul's sister-in-law. However, none of these rumors have been proven true and Curtainshipping is not canon.

==Nugai==
I agree with whoever took out the bit about Paul being referred to as "Nugai" by Pie. I'm highly critical of the justification, "It was important piece of fanon history." His name was revealed shortly after his first appearance in Coro Coro. One American on one message board calling him ''Nugai'', a made-up confusingly Japanese-sounding name, for a couple weeks doesn't really deserve a mention in this article, I don't think, ''even if it was an admin'' who coined the term. --[[User:Greengiant|Greengiant]] 21:49, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

But yeah Lake Verity is centered around faith and emotions, and even though Paul's Japanese name means "faith" he doesn't seem anything of the sort given his rude and seemingly emotionless behavior.

I think that it isn't fair for some of his pokemon to get articles, while others not to.

:The anime doesn't really pay attention to egg moves.  --[[User:Funktastic~!|It&#39;s Funktastic~!]] ([[User talk:Funktastic~!|talk]]) 16:00, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
::I have seen [[DP003|this episode]] in both versions, Japanese as well as its dub, and I am pretty sure that the moves are correct. Besides, it is not necessary that the anime must follow games' rules/mechanism, as we have already noticed a few similar events in the past. Anyway, a double check won't hurt anyone. I will try to re-watch the episode later tonight, just in case.

:It's as Dignified says. The anime doesn't flow directly into the game. In fact, many of ASH'S Pokemon have used multiple moves that can't legitimately learn at all in the games.
==His realistic age==
I know that this is a while since this was being discussed but if I may say: Presume that each adventure Ash goes through takes a year (i.e. one year travelling through Kanto to compete in the Indigo League, one year in the orange islands to compete against the Orange Crew and then the Champion (Drake), one year travelling through Johto to compete in the Silver League, one year travelling through Hoenn to compete in the Ever Grande League, one year travelling through Kanto again to complete the Battle Frontier and one year in Sinnoh to compete in the Lily of the Valley League), then if he started at 10 then he should be 16 at the end of the Sinnoh Saga (DP191). To say Kanto-10, Orange Islands-11, Johto-12, Hoenn-13, Kanto Battle Frontier-14, Sinnoh-15 and Unova-16 (the ages Ash was when he first journeyed through these regions, note that he travelled through Kanto twice). Paul stated in DP40 that he has competed in the Kanto, Johto and Hoen region League tournaments. So if to travel through a region to obtain the badges and compete in the respective League of that region would take a year: then Paul must have been 10 when he travelled through Kanto, 11 in Johto and 12 in Hoen. Therefore he would have been 13 when he was travelling though Sinnoh and 14 near the end of the Sinnoh Saga (DP191).
To sum up: At the start of the Unnova Saga, Ash should be 16 and Paul should be 14, if they aged a year for each competition they competed in.

:What's your point? It doesn't matter that they "should be" something. It's what "they are" that matters. Ash is, and always will be until further notice, 10, and Paul is unknown. End of story. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 10:08, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
With that whole discussion that was going on, I just thought it worthwile to add most likely realistic ages, since people were discussing how old they appear to be.

:Adding realistic ages is conjecture, guessing and not confirmed therefore is not wanted here. ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆ 10:31, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
== the notability of Paul's Pokémon using mega drain. ==
To be entirely honest I don't think this trivia belongs on Paul's page, because it has almost nothing to do with Paul. I think it's more fitting for the [[Giga Drain (move)|giga drain]] page.

== Weavile's Gender?  ==
I'm aware that the anime is iffy on this but isn't Weavile a "Gender differenced" species? So is that an indication of Paul's Weavile's gender?--[[User:Benayla|Benayla]] ([[User talk:Benayla|talk]]) 04:00, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
== Lairon -> Aggron ==
Um... Was it even mentioned anywhere that Paul's Aggron is the same Lairon he used against Brandon? I remember that the lack of a mention in the original [[BW016]] meant that Lenora's Herdier isn't considered to be the Lillipup she previously used. Shouldn't this be the same case?
