The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- While they do not "fly" in the same way a bird does, flying fish can make powerful leaps out of the water where their long, wing-like paired fins act as aerofoils to generate lift and enable prolonged gliding for considerable distances above the water surface.
- The main reason for this behavior is thought to be to escape from underwater predators, which include swordfish, mackerel, tuna, and marlin, among others, though their periods of flight expose them to attack by aerial predators such as frigatebirds.
- Barbados is known as "the land of the flying fish" and the fish is one of the national symbols of the country.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Flying fish article was read about 170,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 66 and blocks with 69: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
