Okay, let me preface this first by saying, I do know about the rares lists and how to use them! I understand that there are pets on the site worth far more than others and I realize the pets I'm referring to fall on these lists. I'm looking for more nuanced advice.
the pets in question are:
I am wondering how best to go about trading for these pets. I have a rares folder which I consistently store up rares in, particularly old rares from the pound and dec 18th, and some higher-value pets gotten from off-site trades. Here is the folder (I believe there is at least one list pet here as well?):

In the past, I have always paid for high-value dream pets either by offsite-trading or buying store pets directly with C$. I have only gotten one of my dream pets through high stakes trading, and I did this by stuffing a rares folder with every rare I could get and throwing them all at the pet I wanted at once. This was the result (and totally worth it in my opinion):

The question I'm asking boils down to this: is it practical for me to attempt to use this method to go after the pets pictured above? Would I eventually have enough rares on hand, both old and new, to be worth one of the above pets in a bulk trade? Or would it be best to look at the rares lists, identify pets that I could trade for more easily with the rares I already have on hand, and trade for them little by little until I have stocked up on rares list pets, then trade that resulting stockpile for the pictured pets? If you are an experienced trader, how would you go about this?
Thank you in advance for any help!! It's really appreciated.
