You are correct in his possible outcomes here, but it wouldn't matter even if he did have 2 Cold elements. As long as there is a possibility of a non-rare hybrid (in this case any hybrid without opposing elements), you will never breed a purebred dragon. And if there isn't, you can end up with any purebred out of the elements you are breeding with.

That's why Blue Fire + Fire or Frostfire + Fire is a bad idea, because you will likely end up with a 12 hour breeding time only to get a Cold dragon.
