Flounder (The Little Mermaid)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Flounder is an Disney character that appeared in Disney's The Little Mermaid. He is Ariel's best friend. Ironically, he is not a flounder, but is more similar in appearance to a Regal Tang or similar fish.
Flounder scares very easily, and is prone to panicking at any bad situation. However, when helping Ariel, his courage grows three sizes, and he is a very loyal companion. According to the Animated Series, Little Mermaid, Flounder's real name is Guppy #35.
He also appears in the Kingdom Hearts series, where his role as Ariel's friend remains. His biggest role was probably in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, where Ursula sent him to the surface to force Ariel to give her the trident.
