Él y su madre Dela eran dueños de una tienda de dulces en un pequeño pueblo, pero pronto se vieron obligados a cerrar y mudarse cuando la gente del pueblo se mudó. Se mudan a una ciudad lejana donde planean abrir una nueva tienda, pero finalmente pierden todo el dinero que han ahorrado mientras sobreviven. Elmer pronto se hace amigo de un gato y finalmente se le ocurre la idea de mendigar el dinero necesario para la tienda, solo para que su madre le diga que es una causa perdida. Enfadado, Elmer corre hacia los muelles para estar solo. El Gato se acerca a él y comienza a hablarle, para su sorpresa. Ella le dice que en una isla, Wild Island, más allá de la ciudad yace un dragón que probablemente pueda ayudarlo. Elmer acepta la tarea y es transportado a la isla gracias a una ballena burbujeante llamada Soda. Una vez que llegan a Wild Island, Soda explica que un gorila llamado Saiwa está usando al dragón para evitar que la isla se hunda, pero sigue siendo ineficaz. Elmer libera al dragón, un tonto llamado Boris, y se embarcan en una aventura para encontrar una tortuga llamada Aratuah para descubrir cómo Boris puede evitar que la isla se hunda durante el próximo siglo, ya que los de su especie lo han estado haciendo desde siempre y lo hará. ser un "After Dragon", pero no puede volar debido a que su ala se rompió después de que Elmer lo salva y se revela que tiene miedo tanto del agua como del fuego y hacen un acuerdo de que Boris ayudará a Elmer a recaudar suficiente dinero para comprar una nueva tienda y dejará libre a Boris una vez que termine. En el camino, se encuentran con algunos de los habitantes de las islas, como Cornelius el cocodrilo, los hermanos tigres Sasha y George y una madre rinoceronte llamada Iris, mientras intentan evadir a Saiwa y su ejército de monos. Pronto llegan al caparazón de Aratuah, pero Elmer descubre que murió y se va mientras la isla continúa hundiéndose. Mientras descansan en una flor, Saiwa y sus fuerzas los encuentran y Saiwa revela que sabía sobre la muerte de Aratuah, lo que enfurece a su segundo al mando macaco, Kwan, quien procede a usar un hongo gigante como balsa para salir de la isla. convencido de que es inútil salvar. Mientras vuela con Boris, Elmer tiene una epifanía; son las raíces debajo de la isla las que la tiran hacia abajo. Consigue convencer a Boris para que vuele con todas sus fuerzas y mientras Boris logra liberar la isla de dos de las raíces, se ahoga cuando se ve abrumado por su miedo al fuego y al estrellarse, Elmer cae de la isla. Saiwa salva a Elmer, quien revela que él y los otros animales están evacuando la isla y reprende a Elmer por querer usar a Boris para sus propios méritos. Luego revela que una vez que se enteró de la muerte de Aratuah, tuvo miedo de hacer que todos se preocuparan más y se preocupó aún más cuando Boris apareció para salvar la isla, pero Saiwa estaba cansado de su personalidad tonta, por lo que mintió y dijo que sabía cómo. para controlar a Boris. Queriendo arreglar las cosas, Elmer regresa a la isla donde Boris le dice que encontró una manera de salvarla saltando al fuego y, finalmente, estalla y levanta mágicamente la isla del mar, convirtiéndose finalmente en un After Dragon. Boris lleva a Elmer a casa y pasa junto a un sorprendido Kwan que reside en los árboles de mandarina. Elmer se reúne con su madre y la película termina con Elmer abrazando su nueva vida en la ciudad con su hija narrando el final de la historia.
