Puffby is a Breaker Aniimo (Wind, Lumin). Catch it in the wild in Cloudreach Falls, Rosy Mirelands, Wildwater Gorge at level 60–64.

It flits busily through the night, gathering pollen from glowing plants and carefully rolling it into pretty pollen balls to bring back to the hive. When danger strikes, it swings the pollen ball like a weapon to bash its enemies.
