i imagine that a large part of seals' popularity is their accessibility, especially when you compare them to hedgies. hedgehogs are difficult to find and maybe even more so to trade for, so people set their sights on another pet that's more common. though now that everyone suddenly wants a promo pet, FOMO kicked in and now people are pushing more and more to get any seal, even if it's not a seal that they want to keep; since people noticed the demand, they're also being pickier because they know someone will go the extra mile. but then what if seals aren't as accessible anymore and people eventually get over the hype? are traders gonna still be able to be picky?

i'm not an econ expert or anything, but things like this tend to turn out this way on games like AJ. it's a real possibility
