its not walking around at all, its legs have been in the same position for the whole time, but while he was on his side he was slightly wiggling them too, but now he is back upright they have stayed totally still.

Did you buy him like this? He could be sick, these things happen. Scorpions are prone to some diseases and even though the pet shop breeds them doesn't mean they take care of them but again, I could be wrong. There's a lot of knowledgeable people here so maybe wait for someone more experienced.
He looks adult or a molt away from adult. He could be on his last leg and that sucks for a new owner and to a recent addition but do what you can for him. Have you read care sheets and the do's and don't? Just to be sure everything is as it should?
