While eating in the prey center, [[Anemone]] requested the fish that Bigtail was eating, claiming that it was her favorite type of fish.

Pike stated that Anemone was the SeaWing [[princess]], though Bigtail thought that she was not ''his'' princess. However, [[Clay]] split the two up, saying that whoever got the food from the prey center first could have it, but they would review the rules if that did not work. [[Tsunami]] then told Anemone to come hunting with her, which she reluctantly agreed to. As a result, Bigtail kept the rest of the fish to himself.

While eating in the prey center, Anemone requested the fish that Bigtail was eating, claiming that it was her favorite type of fish. Bigtail refused to give it to her, resulting in an argument with Pike, one of Anemone's SeaWing followers and secret guard. Pike stated that Anemone was the SeaWing princess, though Bigtail thought that she was not his princess. However, Clay split the two up, saying that whoever got the food from the prey center first could have it, but they would review the rules if that did not work. Tsunami then told Anemone to come hunting with her, which she reluctantly agreed to. As a result, Bigtail kept the rest of the fish to himself.

Later, Bigtail was killed in the history cave by the explosion set off by Sora's dragonflame cactus bomb. Bigtail and Carnelian both died when the dragonflame cactus exploded.
