You would want to give him a pear but not the berries. Maybe try the following to see if it slides you into Soot Black range:


P.S: Don't hate me if it doesn't get you Soot Black

maybe im not understanding the way it works, Wouldn't giving him berries lower the blue (towards 0) while raising red/grn then give some green to get that back lower while raising red again?

Either way its done as I gave him 4 berry messages and 2 pear messages before I seen this post. Will let you know results in 4 hours

You're confusing the effects of the berries and pineapple, pineapple lightens the blue, berries darken the blue, that's why feeding berry would only bring you further from soot black

No, berries "Deepen" (as in strengthen/raise) BLUE and decrease RED/GREEN.

Fruits only have one effect, there is no lighten x and darken y and z, y and z appear darker only because you removed x, but their value never got up, otherwise it'd be impossible to get white in multiple feeds like I did since every step would cancel the previous one.

I've been trying to get to Iris Purple using the point system people post but I'm having trouble understanding. ^_^ So this is my process so far, maybe someone could help me!

Desert Yellow -> Fed 7 apples, 8 berries. (I'm not sure how many procs of new feathers)

1st Color: Coral Pink -> Fed 7 berries. One Proc.
RED 0--------------------|-----255 [200]
GREEN 0----------|---------------255 [101]
BLUE 0--------|-----------------255 [087]

2nd Color: Plum Purple -> Used 2 Pineapple. One Proc. (lighten blue, increased yellow)
RED 0----------|---------------255 [114]
GREEN 0------|-------------------255 [075]
BLUE 0---------|----------------255 [101]

3rd Color -> Coral Pink
RED 0--------------------|-----255 [200]
GREEN 0----------|---------------255 [101]
BLUE 0--------|-----------------255 [087]

How did my red jump 86 points with two pineapple? :/ Where do I even go from here?

The issue with the RGB number's is that we know the RGB's of certain colours but it's impossible to determine how far each individual's Chocobo is into a certain colour range. SE's system recognized that you were at Plum Purple but the exact Plum Purple RGB value's were likely not what your Chocobo was at behind the scenes; unfortunately this is where a bit of RNG comes into play (mileage may vary).

I tried the [O'Ghomoro Berry x3, Mamook Pear x1, Xelphatol Apple x1] recipe in order to get Aldgoat Brown, but instead ended up with Cork Brown.

If it makes any difference, I gave my chocobo the apple first, then the pear, then the three berries.

Rolanberry Red to Midnight Blue was 4 pear and 4 berry (feather messages not actual fruit)
It actually makes sense as 3 pear and 3 berry got Rolanberry to Abyssal and this is a bit darker so...

Still debating on what I'm going to try next.

Unfortunately I am correct, the post you linked only confirmed that I'm not the only one to think like that, the other colors are more apparent because you removed one of them, it's natural, automatic, call it however you want, it won't change the fact that if you remove green from a equal setting for all three color you'll get purple, not because you also added blue and red but because the absence of greed made the other two more "vibrant"
