The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In its broadest sense, it is a paraphyletic group encompassing all tetrapods, but excluding the amniotes.
- All extant amphibians belong to the monophyletic subclass Lissamphibia, with three living orders: Anura, Urodela, and Gymnophiona.
- Evolved to be mostly semiaquatic, amphibians have adapted to inhabit a wide variety of habitats, with most species living in freshwater, wetland or terrestrial ecosystems.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Amphibian article was read about 370,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 91 and blocks with 93: each hit it takes is cut by 37 %.
