MoP Rare Pets

Blizzard recently announced that they are going to make a number of "non-capture" pets (current non combat pets) into rares come Mists of Pandaria.  Rare Battle Pets will be more desirable, because at any specific level, they'll be stronger than their non-rare counterparts.  The original Blue post with the list can be found here.  I decided to take all these pets and organize them in a way that makes sense to me, by how you obtain them.  I will be updating this page if they add more, as the blue post suggested they would.  A lot of the pet names meant nothing to me when I read them so I decided to do some research, I hope you enjoy the list!

One personal gripe before the list:  The blue post said they were deciding which pets to change "based on how difficult they are to obtain", but a vast majority of the pets are ones you can buy directly from Blizzard for cash.
