The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- These are pelagic seabirds that feed primarily by diving in the water.
- They breed in large colonies on coastal cliffs or offshore islands, nesting in crevices among rocks or in burrows in the soil.
- Two species, the tufted puffin and horned puffin, are found in the North Pacific Ocean, while the Atlantic puffin is found in the North Atlantic Ocean.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Puffin article was read about 360,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 71: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
