It's not that he isn't interested in the Wild Hunt, he is, but it's not something to get involved in yet and he trusts the warning he received to stay out.
So Sigurd comes to visit, faster than something of his size should seemingly be. He swoops down in front of them, and Loki will hear a familiar voice cry out in greeting from a grip around the Pokémon's neck.
The first thing Loki and the children will notice is that Sigurd is much bigger after achieving his final form as a Flygon, more than twice his size as a Vibrava and far heavier, though his form is still streamlined. His wings are broad and powerful, much stronger than they were when he ineffectually "attacked" Loki, kicking up snow as he comes in to perch on the ground. The second is that Paul is mounted on his back to direct him, lightly jumping down as soon as the dragon Pokémon lands and reassuring Sigurd with a gentle stroke on the neck and a whisper in the ear. Then he turns to Loki.
Sigurd seems to trust Loki and the children, since he met at least some of them before, so introductions aren't necessary. He knows they aren't a threat. Instead, the insect-like dragon shuffles over to let them have a closer look. He's recently evolved and very proud of that fact.

"Happy New Year to you and your family, from both of us." Paul smiles a little and bows, to be polite. "May I come in? I think you know why we're here. I could smell the cookies from Sigurd's back."
