-Following his release from prison for Pokémon abuse, Reggie gained custody of most of Paul's Pokémon. The only Pokémon that formerly belonged to Paul that went to someone else was Chimchar, who Ash took in after the arrest. -Paul lost Reggie's trust following his release. It took a lesson in humility to get it back. -Paul wasn't going to approach Ash again in the Journeys arc, but meeting May changed his mind. -Infernape still has some scarring from Paul's cruelty. -He's on a new path even before meeting with Ash. Paul has received an offer to train under Karen, one of the Elite Four of Kanto and Johto. Reggie and May encourage him to take the offer. Reggie believes she's the one who can truly bring out Paul's softer nature. -Paul's team as of the Journeys arc: Electivire, Torterra, Crobat, Froslass, Gastrodon (East Sea), and Honchkrow.
