History

The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning

Flounder is seen as as young yellow fish with blue stripes. He is met by Ariel in the dangerous part of Atlantica. As King Triton banished music from the kingdom, he and Ariel are warned by the swordfish guards that they will be arrested. He then meets up with some fish playing music such as Catfish Club. Later, King Triton's guards arrested them and put them to prison. As an escape, he and Ariel are stopped by Marina's eels and Ariel hit Marina on a log. Flounder is later seen in the crowd after music is brought back to the kingdom.

The Little Mermaid

After the prequel, Flounder goes aside Ariel who is in the faraway outlands when trying to avoid Glut. He is later seen during Ariel's signature song, "Part of Your World". Later, the two go after Sebastian thinking why the human world is dangerous and must live under the sea. After that, Sebastian sings his signature song ("Under the Sea"). Flounder and Ariel feel sad after King Triton destroyed the statue of Prince Eric, meaning that humans and mermaids never get along. He and Ariel are later seen in Ursula's cave and during her song, "Poor Unfortunate Souls". As a human, Ariel meets Eric and then Flounder is seen on the marsh where Sebastian sings his second signature song, "Kiss the Girl". After that, Ursula sets a storm to attack Atlantica and Flounder is seen with the other aquatic animals during Ariel and Eric's wedding after the witch's death.

The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea

Flounder is first seen along with King Triton and Sebastian, attending the celebrations of the birth of Ariel and Eric's daughter Melody. He is disappointed when Ariel decides to keep all knowledge of the sea away from Melody in order to protect her from Ursula's sister Morgana. Following this, Ariel and Eric have a wall built around their kingdom to separate it from the sea, thus preventing Flounder from seeing Ariel again.

12 years later after Melody flees home and goes out to sea, Ariel is turned back into a mermaid by Triton in order to look for her. When returning to the sea, Ariel sees a fish that looks like Flounder and believes that it is him. Ariel goes to greet the fish, but scares him away. The fish returns moments later with his father, who turns out to be Flounder, who is happy to see Ariel again.

Flounder helps Ariel look for Melody. They see Morgana's pet rays Cloak and Dagger and follow them to Morgana's lair and are captured by her. Flounder is imprisoned with Melody, but they are freed by Melody's friends Tip and Dash.

After Morgana's defeat, Flounder is seen being happy that the wall separating the kingdom and the sea is destroyed by Melody.
