Editing Rare reef

'''Rare reefs''' are scattered across the seas of [[Concordia]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. Like islands and islets, they are discovered from [[Shipshape Island]], but cannot be traveled to. There are 20 in total, with several acting as references to previous games in the [[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]]. [[Issa Rock]] keeps track of the number of rare reefs discovered and rewards [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] once certain milestones are reached. In addition, she creates statues of and writes poetry inspired by the reefs; these are put on display throughout Shipshape Island.
