Flinch is a character who appears in the Disney Junior animated series Sofia the First, voiced by Dino Andrade.
Personality
Flinch is a very timid character due to his fear of Grotta zapping him. He is shown to have a stronger moral compass than Grotta as shown by the fact that the main reason he urges others to obey Grotta is so they won't become her victims like he did. He's also shown to be more pragmatic and reasonable than Grotta.
History
Flinch started travelling with Grotta after he became one of her many victims when she turned him into a mole after he made the mistake of expecting her to "understand something" and he's lived in fear of her zapping him again and always urges others to give her what she wants so they won't become victims of her like he did.
Flinch first appears after Grotta tells him to find a place for the cave crystal she stole from Gnarlie. While doing so, he accidentally makes the cave go dark which makes Grotta reveal her fear of the dark. Later, he warns Gnarlie that Grotta isn't an understanding person and that he knew because he found that out the hard way when she turned him into a mole. He is later seen being ordered about by Grotta who gives him all sorts of unreasonable demands to the disapproval of Sofia, who was kidnapped by Grotta. Gnarlie and the other trolls confront Grotta and make her change him back to his true form, which is revealed to be a salamander. He is last seen running from Teeny, who wants to put a bow on him.
