Cannot be used as Link Material. Each time a player(s) shuffles their Deck, switch control of this card. Once per turn, during the End Phase: The controller shuffles 1 card from their hand or side of the field into the Deck, except a "Shufflin' Fleas" they control.

So it is suppose to be a humorous combination of the shuffle mechanic and fleas. The shuffles are akin to scratching which makes the fleas "jump" from field to field. The once per turn effect would be in essence like the fleas biting the host and thus making them scratch.

Mechanic Explanation:

So just to clarify one bit that may confuse some folks. When the once per turn effect is exhausted by the former controller, it cannot be used on the same turn for the new controller. So there wouldn't be loops as far as that goes.

Oh and also this is only for mandatory shuffling from things like adding cards from Deck to hand or shuffling things back into the Deck via card effects. No negotiated shuffles based on trust, underhanded stacking prevention, or whatever.

So this is basically playing "pass the bucket". It's familiar to Dustons. But unlike Dustons, you can use this guy for stuff like Synchro, Tribute, or Xyz Summon. You can bring it out with One for One, and then play a little game of hot potato with this card. If your opponent's Deck is Link-heavy, it could serve a purpose. Since the most it does is clog up a Main Monster Zone, it's fair how it triggers its effect upon shuffle. Why wait for the End Phase? Use a search card like Reinforcement of the Army. Thus avoiding the shuffle to the Deck bit at the end, keeping your hand safe.
