Took the confirmed Ink Blue image and his 'black' chocobo into Photoshop and compared them, both images (of course thee will be some difference because of type of picture, light etc...) fall within a dark blue on the RGB hex coding scale, not a black.

I'm pretty certain it is a Ink Blue, not a true "Black", unless he can put up a shot saying that it is black from the companion menu I'm going with Ink Blue.

And I want to note, I'm not saying this to be rude, mean or doubtful. Everyone is trying to get a color that they really want, and if people believe there is a black because if his post, and it turns out to be false information, people might be wasting time, gil and food trying to achieve the impossible due to a false advertisement.

If it is a true black he would have no issues showing us a screenshot of the companion menu, doesn't even have to say HOW he got it, just show it is black.

Left side: Confirmed Ink Blue Chocobo (blueruckus chocobo) --------- Right Side "black" chocobo?


Both look ink blue to me...
