That seems to defeat the purpose of buying five inch squares.
First, I would see if all the squares in each pack were the same size.
Then I would lay one of the pinked squares on top of the straight edged ones and see how they lined up. I would "believe" the straight-edged ones and use them as my guide as to how I joined the pink ones.
Caveat: I have never bought pinked or unpicked five inch squares - so - my comments may not apply.
