I don't think Zin will ever get a rare.

To get a rare species, they need a new type of bugs.

So as long as there's nothing more powerful than Dracophage Bugs, there's no Zin rare. Because i highly doubt we'll see one with Flashbugs or Great Thunderbugs (That's Apex Zin).

Also, that water or ice subs thing really makes me want to tableflip. To get water element, Zin must gather bugs that produce or need water... oh wait... EVERY life form needs water. And apart from Ice crystals, there are few natural sources of cold energy around here, and bugs rarely feed on minerals.
