So they reduce red and increase blue and green? Or just reduce red?

What color do you want in the table I posted ?
Let's say you want Colibri Pink :

Code:

---

Coral Pink        200        101        87
Colibri Pink        217        149        198

---

You need to lighten red of 17 points (which means reinforce red, but to the light colors, not dark ones), lighten green of 48 points, and lighten blue of 109 points.
So you need I'd recommend a combination of plums (increase GB, reduce R values), and a few pineapples too (increase RB reduce G values), in like 2/3 1/3 proportions respectively.

Though the apples you used might have changed the RGB values from coral pink ....

Going through yours and entering it, thank you!

Forget what I said stabbitystyle, I'm tired, I read the values backwards ^^
Apples increase red color, so diminish R value and increase GB values.

My bad....
Here's the table of close colors reducing Red value (so increasing red color)

Code:

---

Lime Green        166        171        77
Ash Grey        167        162        156
Ice Blue        173        192        202
Sunset Orange        178        85        39
Iris Purple        178        152        183
Ul Brown        178        157        105
Gobbiebag Brown        180        158        130
Coeurl Yellow        182        129        3
Sylph Green        182        182        131
Pumpkin Orange        193        109        31
Cork Brown        197        139        79
Coral Pink        200        101        87

I don't know if you can directly correlate the rgb like that.
Rose Pink (R228, G153, B144) + Apples (deepen red) =
Coral Pink (R200, G101, B87)

or the rgb stuff has me too confused.

I'm not sure how to go about doing this.


You might be interested to know that I was able to get to Celeste Green from apple green with O'Ghomoro Berries.

O_O

Now I'm tempted... >.< Thank you though, very much!

Jayne, can this be added to the Resources on the main page, pretty please?

Building off my previous post where I was trying to get Turquoise Green I wasted a lot of food discovering that Sky Blue is the stopping point for Doman Plums or that after 32 feeds the RNG hates me and still won't activate a message about growing new feathers.

Raptor Blue (START)
--> Fed 7 Pineapples (1 new feathers)
Seafog Blue
-->2 Pineapple (1 msg)
Corpse Blue
-->4 Pineapple (1 msg)
Celeste Green
-->7 Pear (1 msg)
Apple Green
-->1 Berry (1 msg)
Celeste Green

Celeste Green
-->10 Plum (1 msg)
Sky Blue
-->32 Plum (no message)
WITHDREW FROM STABLE

After feeding 32 plums I abandoned that attempt, withdrawing the chocobo from the stable just to be certain that the food would have no effect on further testing, because it just didn't seem feasible to keep feeding food that may not be doing anything.

I'm still not really sure how to proceed towards my goal, but I think so long as I'm doing it blindly and recording all my steps someone will get some use out of it

So I just stabled my chocobo, which is coral pink, in an attempt to get to plum so I could go to lavender and then colibri. Then I saw Lyrical editing her chart and tried to cancel my feeding.

The feather message stopped appearing after I cancelled out the plum with an apple, I think.
It then reappeared on a feeding of valfruit. I did this in the wrong order, because I'm dumb but I think this should prove that the first valfruit before the apple didn't count, even though it got the feathers message.
Now just gotta hope I land on colibri.
