I have seen tons of posts on how to get to Hunter green. Get to apple green and add berries. Well once I got to apple green (two plume changing feedings of pears) I did one plume changing feeding of berries. It skipped over all shades of green that people said they passed to get to hunter and put me straight at turquoise green. Do I use lightening fruit now to get to hunter or keep feeding berries?

Sooo, this took me to rolanberry red. Totally at a loss at this point! I've been trying for ink blue for so long, and while I have gotten close, I don't know what I'm doing wrong! Totally frustrating!

Fed 3 berries, 2 pears, and 2 apples to get back to Midnight Blue. I feel like I've tried so many combinations of fruits from Midnight Blue and still haven't gotten Ink Blue.

Midnight blue is a lighter shade of blue than ink blue. Midnight blue also has balanced levels of green & blue, while ink blue has a slightly elevated green value (midway between red & blue). And since you've been switching between rolanberry red & blue, your red is probably a little high too.

My suggestion is to feed it 1 apple and 2 pears to slightly drop red, slightly increase green and drop your blue values down by a bit. This should hopefully get you in (or close to) the ink blue range.

So I'm trying to get my chocobo to go from sylph green --> snow white --> lotus pink

I keep getting stuck back to sylph green, though. Charts say to feed it plums from sylph green which should take it to snow white. However, every time I've fed it plums from sylph green, it either goes ice blue or celeste green. Have yet to get snow white D:<

Anyone know the best/easiest way to get to lotus pink?

Awesome, thanks! I will try this next!

I just fed my Midnight blue chocobo 2x pineapples, got 1 feathers message on the last pineapple. We'll see where that gets me!

Trying for Ink Blue by the way!
