Do I only change my wheels as a pair?
I currently ride Askium's. If trading up wheels/rims, is this only done in pairs? Or can only the front or rear rim be traded?

Change either one as suits you.
Though wheels are generally cheaper as a pair (compared to buying two separately). But sometimes really good deals can be had on individual wheels on clearance.

Throw the stick!!!!
I do it both ways, my race wheels are generally done in pairs. My training wheels are just whatever I have laying around. I generally use my powertap rear wheel though, and whatever front wheel I find cheap. I'm currently running a campy chorus front hub but I'm not really sure what rim I am using with it.

And what might happen if you don't change them as pairs ? Will one of the wheels be upset ?
