>>56492031Anon's pic illustrates that BFS by itself about as much strength as something with maximised helping speed and minimised ingredient finding rate.
They both happen to gather approx 166 berries per day. The fast mon generates more strength through its boosted skill trigger rate and slightly more ingredients despite the reduced ingredient finding rate.
It also illustrates that BFS can't work effectively if your berry mon has too much ingredient finder. You can offset that however by leaving your berry helper in sneaky snacking mode.
Ingredient Finder can have a surprising effect on berry specialists.
I run a BFS Raichu that has Ingredient Finder S + nature, which is fine as it's rocking BFS + Helping Speed M.
As a result of being level 60 though, it's my 5th highest ingredient finder when I let the game pick an ingredient gathering team.
