==History==
===''Wario Land II===
Flying Fish are encountered as enemies during the events of ''Wario Land II''. [[Wario]] first encounters them in [[Wario Castle|his castle]] after the [[Black Sugar Gang]] has [[One Noisy Morning|flooded his entire home]]. Whenever they appear, they usually jump out of the water and collide with Wario, bouncing him backwards. This can sometimes cause Wario to lose his footing and fall into the water. Despite this, though, Flying Fish are less of a menace, since they cannot harm Wario in any way.

They are depicted with gazing eyeballs and their mouths are wide open, showing their disproportionally huge incisors. They are brown in the Game Boy Color-enhanced re-release. Wario first encounters them in his castle after the Black Sugar Gang has flooded his entire home.
