Perhaps they misunderstood this?:
common = 1 common / 2-3 very common
uncommon = 1 common/ 3 commons / no very commons sorry. unless you mix in a uncommon
rare = 1-2 rares depending on year. / 1 rare
very rare = 2-3 rares depending on year / 1 very rare
omg so rare = we'll see about that(: ahaha

While you did include that year counts in the Rare and VR, you might want to put "A 2011 uncommon doesn't equal a 2009 uncommon." or something in that.

There is actually no such thing as rarity math... those sorts of equations cause people to think trades like that are fair. I can understand the reason behind them, but it probably will just do more bad than good. ^^; Imagine someone offering a store pet on a purple toxic re-release... they'd be from the same year, right? =P

This was sent as a ready to accept trade (no message since they are COPPA): http://www.chickensmoothie.com/trades/v ... wBqTHGrinw

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a mistake either, they have sent me many bad trades before. I am not amused...

With the demand for the PeaPPS, both were bad.
The dog in the third one is also in pretty big demand, but not as much as the PeaPPS unless I missed something.

True.
Still, with a chart like that, it's easy for people to get confused no matter what else is said.
