Well, are we talking about the original canon, established by the show itself, or fanfictions? Cos I don't think there are any robots in Equestria in the MLP universe. Fanfictions however, are a completely different story. I've hear a theory that griffons are nearly extinct cos their empire was plunged into a war or something in the long past but that's just another fan-made headcanon if I'm not mistaken. On the other hand, earth ponies are not a rare species at all, they are all over the place. and we don't know much about zebras, except for the fact that they live on a faraway land, which doesn't imply that they are rare, just that they are not present in Equestria for some reason. :D

I see. The reason might be the fact that earth ponies don't really have any special abilities, except for physical strength, while pegasi possess the power of flight and alicorns are usually have an omnipotent magic. It is very difficult to create a good original character and it's even harder if you choose your OC to be an earth pony, cos then you have to create a unique personality for your OC... cos that is all you have basically... Many-many people just take the easy path and base their character solely on power, let that be flight or magic. That is why there are so many Mary sue characters out there, who are just perfect, have a shallow, one dimensional personality with no flaws and they are often related to one of the main characters of the show. It's really quite boring if you ask me. :) but that is just my own personal opinion.
