Logbook entry from Metroid Prime: Plated Puffer
First Location: Chozo Ruins - Tower of Light
Logbook - Plated Puffer
Mutated Puffer with reinforced epidermis.​​ Phazon exposure has created a mutant strain of Puffers on Tallon IV.​ They have developed plated skin,​ making them harder to burst.​ Concussive weapons can still do the job,​ however.​ The gas within the Plated Puffer is just as deadly as that within their '​cousins​'​.[1]
