Paul's only concern in his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is of their strength in {{pkmn|battle}}. He strongly dislikes weak Pokémon and has a tendency of {{pkmn2|released|releasing}} them if they do not meet his 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 has a habit of scolding his Pokémon for losing to opponents he feels they could have beaten, especially {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}. He has also demonstrated similar behavior to {{p|Azumarill}}, {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}} and {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}. However, after losing to {{an|Brandon}}, he begins to treat them less harshly; while he still doesn't show affection, he is not shown scolding his Pokémon for losing like he did previously. Furthermore, after his loss to Ash in ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]],'' he thanked his Electivire for its efforts, something he previously did very rarely, even when his Pokemon won.

Paul can be very callous and even brutal, especially in battle. As a result, he has been shown to display very little emotion other than an occasional rough smile when dealing with Ash. He has also been shown to have a certain degree of athleticism, as seen in ''[[DP006|Different Strokes for Different Blokes]]'' when he and Chimchar were able to downwardly scale a cliff of a waterfall near [[Bewilder Forest]] by swinging and leaping from rocks and branches. His catchphrase when calling out Pokémon is "<Pokémon>, standby for battle!".
