As of April 2014, Shark Boy presumably changed his avatar name to Shark Guy and his username to sharkguycreator. All external appearances of Shark Boy were covered up as well. Read more about the disappearance here. While this may be in fact the real creator, his name was not officially changed and therefore we still refer to him as Shark Boy.
Characteristics
Shark Boy is a grumpy character - while the first two questions you ask him are answered politely, he soon grows tired of you, and admits that he's not a real shark, and is just a guy trying to make a living. His shark outfit has visible stitches and a shark fin similar to the one you can receive from the Shark Fin Vendor. He holds a fish that is seemingly dead. With relaxed eyes and an unhappy smile, he's every kind of melancholy and somewhat sad or depressed.
Storyline
You'll find Shark Boy inside the Shark Museum on Shark Tooth Island. He's on the bottom floor, inside a pool of shallow water. When prompted, he will answer your first two questions, and then will tell you that he's just trying to make a living.
Appearances
Other than appearing on Shark Tooth Island, Shark Boy is a star in the Poptropica universe, appearing in everything from T-shirts to toys. In April 2014, however, the majority of his appearances and all around evidence of existence were almost completely eradicated. Here is a list of his appearances (mostly now deleted or replaced by another character).
There have been 2 Shark Boy toys. One being a 6' figure, and the other being a plush toy. They have different promo codes, which can be used to obtain different items.
He wrote the plot for the Haunted House mini-island.
His username was originally sharkboycreator, but was replaced with sharkguycreator in 2014.
He was on the Poptropica Avatar Studio card in the Poptropica Store until 2014 when he was replaced by Master Mime.
