"Hello! I've got a question - are you taking into consideration user demand in your rarity rankings or just the frequency of visibility in cave?"

In my example table, I went by cave visibility and personal breeding results, since I do a lot of breeding all over the place. Very subjective, you see.

"Just looking at your table - Balloons common ? I don't think so."

I don't know where you are looking, but I see them quite frequently, and breeding them with less common breeds usually yields a balloon. 500 shards in the market places them somewhere like "not annoyingly ultracommon, but attainable".

Of course, we also don't know if TJ actually programmed all of those "not rare" breeds to thrive to be of the same amount in the cave. Are balloons more expensive than Undines (at 300 shards) because there are more balloons than Undines (younger than 1 year) on people's scrolls right now, or are they more expensive because they are actually meant to be fewer than Undines?
