Mycelium is just regular dirt. With enough work, and a diligent eradication of existing grass, you could theoretically cover the entire world in mycelium. Even if you're just talking about the naturally-occuring ones, mushroom island biomes are indeed rare, as are emerald ores, but they are still part of the random, natural generation of the world, limited only by the 64,000,000 x 64,000,000-block maximum world size. That's a lot of area. If you explore long enough, you will eventually find very large amounts of both these resources.
Something like end stone, on the other hand, is actually in very limited supply. The end island is rather small, only a few hundred blocks across I believe. Even if it were a solid mass 1000 x 128 x 1000 blocks in size (which it's not, it's far smaller than that), if you mined the whole thing and made a single-wide line of blocks, it would only extend halfway around the border of the Minecraft overworld.
Cracked and mossy stone brick are only found in strongholds, which generate only three to a world, and are even more limited.
Chiseled Stone Bricks
Dragon Egg
End Stone (Only One Island...)
Emerald Ore
Pumpkins
Monster Spawners
Nether Wart
Cauldrons (In Witch Huts)
End Portal Frame
Mossy/Cracked Stone Brick
Stone Slab (In Blacksmiths)
Mycelium
Giant Mushrooms
Cobblestone....
well if you don't own a pickaxe you might never be able to mine any of them
Creepers. And dungeons.
Dragon Egg is the rarest item not including sponges. Rarest item not including the Dragon Egg would probably be the Nether Star.
Rarest naturally generated item would be the end portal frame, being only 36 per world.
EDIT: Actually, not including the Dragon Egg, I would say the End portal frame is the rarest item since you can theoretically get an infinite number of nether stars, but there's a limit of 36 frames.

I don't think the End Portal Frame counts as a resource, since it's impossible to mine.

There are two things that are infinite: the Universe and Human stupidity. And I'm not so sure about the Universe.
There are far more than 10000.

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.

Hmm, I don't know. Only three to a temple, but again, there can be lots of temples in a 4 billion sq-km area.

I'd say enderpearls are some of the hardest things to get. Endermen are rare spawns.

Why is that..?The most limited resource that everyone seems to forget is time... there is never enough time!
What do you mean why is that? That's how Minecraft works.
There are no sponges ever, compared to there is always at least a little time.
I don't think the End Portal Frame counts as a resource, since it's impossible to mine.
I just don't understand why Mojang coded it to make so few sponges and whatnot, it doesn't make any sense.
There aren't few sponges, there are no sponges unless spawned, via mod, command, or creative mode.
I there is a very low percent you can get one ._ . a VERY LOW chance.
