I've been trying for it relentlessly. I spent half of BEB getting Panlong then Bloom then trying for it. Spent a few weeks before this event and the begining of it trying to get a second and third Panlong, and another Bloom. Then had all three caves since dedicated to breeding it with no luck. I even made a spreadsheet with the odds and average fails so at any given point I could see the exact percent chance of making it happen and watched it drop from the 90s to only about 40% now assuming no back log at the nursery and that I actually was logged on every time a breeding time ended. Soooo many long fails, I thought I'd have just enough to buy it by the end if I failed but with the new cap on banking....don't think it's going to happen till BEB or next year if I don't get it now and I'm watching those odds slowly shrink away. So trust me, I feel your pain. But honestly? I like that there are some dragons that are really hard to get. And this is the hardest one. I like that they aren't always available, coop or otherwise. It makes the game better in my opinion. More interesting. And it makes it a huge achiement to get each and every one. Plus there's nothing better then FINALLY getting one of the tough ones. They have over 100 permanent hydrids that are easy to get. Alot of the limited hybrids are much easier, and now with the Coop cave how much easier it is to get epics or get a second limited hybrid? For me as frustrated and sad as I am that I haven't gotten it, and I feel you on that, I like the challenge, and I think the game is better for it, if anything I'd advise Backflip to make more of them (though possibly make them give a higher number of gems to even out the work). And if I don't get it, then I'm going to use that to motivate me the rest of the year to try to get them all so that come BEB the only one I'll need to try for is Ovalith....well, and Sakura at this point and the christmas ones I missed last year because I was trying for Ovalith instead...BUT STILL I'm going to work that much harder and have that much more motivation all year so that I can finally get it and mentally shove it in that sadist at Backflips face and it'll be that much more rewarding when I do.

TLDR: Making the game have some challenges makes it a better game.
