Captain Gills

Captain Gills is a fish from Super Paper Mario. As a baby, he used to be Pook's pet, and was kept in a cup until he grew too big for it, then waqs transfered to a Fish Bowl given by Merlon. It turns out Mario needed that fish bowl as a Space Helmet for Chapter 4-1, so Pook was asked for it back. He would only accept to give it back if they gave Captain Gills a new home, for he was growing even too big for his own fish bowl. Mario, Peach, and Bowser had to free him into the underground canal of Flipside's B1st Floor. After every chapter, he got bigger and bigger until, at the end of the game, grew to his largest size and became the master of his own canal. He has grown big and scary, and seems to have survived by turning carnivore. Three piles of unidentified bones can be found at the canal's floor.

He is the only fish in the canal, but somehow, got his own children, Gills Jr., Gills II, Gills III, Gills IV, and Gills V. He also seems to remember Mario and friend for he does not attack them at all when going through the canal.
