### Dawn Of The Dragon Racers

Taking place within the series and acting as a premier to *Race to the Edge*, the teens fight over who came up with the idea of dragon racing.

In the flashbacks that take place after Defenders of Berk Fishlegs initially reject Hiccup and Astrid's chance to join their team because he is more focused on the regatta than a dragon race. However, after Astrid gets injured whole fighting over a sheep with Snotlout, Hiccup and Toothless approach Fishlegs and Meatlug again for them to act as a stand-in for Astrid and Stormfly, only for Fishlegs to reject Hiccup one again. However, after the ship he worked on sinks, Fishlegs relents. After the race, Snotlout and the twins apparently win do to them finding the tiebreaker, the black sheep. However, the "Black sheep" is actually just a regular sheep covered in black paint by the twins after Fishlegs returns with the real black sheep, proving that the twins and Snotlout cheated. Hiccup and Fishlegs come out victorious. In the end though Tuffnut practically came up with the idea, the team settled that they all just invented Dragon racing before going to compete in their next one.

### Dragons: Race to the Edge

In the Netflix original series, *Race to the Edge*, Fishlegs continues being a series regular on the show.

#### Season 1

Taking place three years after the war with the Berserker Tribe, Fishlegs along with Meatlug moved on and became a tour guide an educated younger Vikings about Berk's history. However, after Dagur breaks out of prison and commandeer Trader Johann's ship, Fishlegs and Meatlug come out of retirement and assist Hiccup in retrieving Johann's treasures that he left behind on the *Reaper*. After discovering the Dragon Eye and that there are more new dragons to discover, Fishlegs decides to join Hiccup in his quest. After finding a knack for it after an experience with Death Song, the teens decided to build Dragon's Edge so it would be easier than going back to Berk back and forth.

After every time a new dragon is discovered, both Hiccup and Fishlegs go nuts over it, much to the annoyance of their peers.

In "The Big Man on Berk," Fishlegs is allegedly allergic to Meatlug and hypnotized into thinking otherwise by Hiccup. However, due to Snotlout's interference, Fishlegs is hypnotized into thinking he is a war hero named Thor Bone-crusher. They are unable to unhypnotize him Fishlegs breaking Gothi's staff in half. However, the only solution is that Fishlegs has to be really scared for the influence to wear off. Throughout the episode, Snotlout begins following Fishlegs around, satisfied with the new "Thor Bone-crusher". Though many failed attempts, Fishlegs decides to face the Scauldron they failed to relocate. He is able to break free from hypnosis after he sees Meatlug in mortal danger. In the end of the episode, it turns out that Fishlegs wasn't allergic to Meatlug but rather Gobber's ear wax
