Flats the Flounder

Flats the Flounder (July 22, 1981 - October 5, 2001) was a green flounder who first appeared in the episode Sandy's Rocket. He was the bully of Mrs. Puff's Boating School. He was born somewhere between late 1970s and 1985. He made his only major appearance in the episode The Bully. He was a flat flounder and likes to kick people's butts. When he finally kicks SpongeBob's butt, it doesn't hurt because SpongeBob is made from "Some kind of spongy material". This tired flats to his unexpected death. He also has a father who he tells not to talk to strangers. He also appears in other episodes in cameos, such as Sandy's Rocket. Flats obviously first appeared in the episode Sandy's Rocket, but his name was unknown during that time. He went to community college with Patrick. In the episode, he gets sent to The Hospital as a result of chasing SpongeBob.
