1)      Introduction and Important Notices

Well, this is my very first Kingdom Hearts faq, and it describes the
various abilities that can be equipped to Sora and Friends throughout
your journey. It is also the first Kingdom Hearts Ability Faq ever
written and posted on Gamefaqs.com (I feel so special :)). Also, this
faq can currently be used only on Gamefaq.com because no one else has
asked for permission to place this faq on his or her site. If you ask,
I probably will grant you permission. If you wish to add something,
just e-mail it to me at [email protected]. If you find a mistake,
alert me of it and I will credit you. Thank you. And onto the faq!


2)    Basic Q&A

1q. What are Support Abilities?
1a. Support Abilities are the ones that help you fight more efficiently
and defeat Heartless with less trouble.

2q. What are Combat Abilities?
2a. These are the abilities that actually do damage through a powerful
or powerful series of attacks. Sonic Blade is an example of an
offensive combat ability. Defensive attacks are also counted in this
group. Dodge Roll is a defensive combat ability.

3q. What are Treasure Abilities?
3a. These are the ones that help you in your quest to become rich.
Jackpot is a good example.

4q. What are the Other Abilities?
4a. These are Shared Abilities, and abilities Sora can't learn. Second
Wind is a good one and they also include the special attacks used by
your temporary partners', like Tarzan's Asp's Bite.

5q. How do you equip abilities? In the menu, there is a bar that says
Abilities. Enter it and you can equip Sora's and his friends'
abilities. Each ability has an AP cost to equip and you can't equip
more than your AP number.

6q. How do you beat [Insert Boss name here]?
6a. WHAT!? This shouldn't even be here! This is an ABILITY GUIDE! Not
some boss guide! There are faqs for bosses out there! Go look yourself!
Lazy bums...

he following sections will explain it all. Sheesh...

5)    The Abilities, Part 2 (Combat Abilities)

in combat immensely, and can make all the difference in a difficult
boss battle. Also, Sora is the only one that can learn these abilities.

arrow in the command boxes will move to the first box, which now says
Rave. When Rave is pressed, Sora will do a follow-up slash. When Rave
appears again and is pressed, Sora will follow-up again. You can

Ability: Trinity Limit
AP Cost: 5
Effect: When close to an enemy, the Trinity command will appear in the
last box. I'm not sure how to trigger Trinity if other abilities are
equipped. If selected, Sora will go into an impressive series of flips
and eventually plants his Keyblade into the ground and summons a huge
energy wave, crushing all enemies in the room. The more MP you have
remaining, the stronger the attack. With seven or eight MP, you'll
reduce Bosses' Health by whole bars at a time. Despite its' awesome
power, it takes all MP and really isn't too reliable because of that.
MP Cost: All MP (Sora and Friends) and requires at least 3 MP.

8)    Sora's Cheer Ability

To get Sora's Cheer Ability, you must romp around in The Hundred Acre
Woods. You have to fulfill certain requirements in the mini-games.

Pooh's Hunny Tree- MORE than 100 licks (100 won't cut it)
To do this, stay where Sora starts. When bees appear, target them and
wait. When they comes near, tap X once. Do not move the left analog
stick. If done right, Sora will jump, slash the bees, and the force of
the attack on the bees will cause Sora to pop up again onto the same
branch or he will jump automatically onto another. Every group of bees
you swat earns you five to ten licks, while Pooh is safe stuffing his
face behind you. Not too hard.

My Record List:
1.      298 Licks
2.      287 Licks
3.      256 Licks
4.      255 Licks
5.      243 Licks

Block Tigger!- At least 150 points
This is rather difficult. If rush appears, use it, but don't depend on
it. After each block, return to the middle of the two rows to stop him
easier. Run manually to him, and use rush if able, but it didn't help
me much.

My Record List:
1.      270 Points
2.      240 Points
3.      210 Points
4.      195 Points
5.      182 Points

Pooh Swing- At least 40 yards
To get him past 40, just press R1 when Owl lowers his wings. When he
LOWERS them. You should press R1 when they almost come down to his
sides. This isn't too hard to do.

Tigger's Giant Pot- Less than 30 seconds
The higher you are when you hit the nut, the better. Longer Keyblades
are good here! Pumpkinhead and Metal Chocobo are good to use. Before
the nut comes out, move to the back of the stump, so you have some room
for error. When the nut flies out, target it, jump, and slash it when
it's as high as possible. Repeat. The first nut is usually worth seven
points at most, and the next can be worth almost anything.

My Record List:
1.      0'9"16
2.      0'10"56
3.      0'10"72
4.      0'11"13
5. 0'13"34

Pooh's Friend Hunt: Less than five minutes
This is the simplest one of all. First, run around the bush to a tree
root where Roo is jumping on top. Hit the root a few times to make Roo
jump off. Speak to him. Then run under the log to the three holes and
talk to Rabbit when he comes outta one of them. Then jump over the well
to float upwards and stand on the end of the log. When Tigger jumps
near you, talk to him to send him to the bush. Now go back to where you
spoke to Tigger and walk across the log. Jump onto the next level and
walk across this level and wait near the shrubbery on the other side of
the tree. Owl will land eventually and you can talk to him. Now comes
the semi-tricky part. Lock onto Pooh and lead him to the blue flowers.
He will float up. Then jump up onto the well to rise to his level. Then
target the inside of the log and fire the cobwebs inside. Then target
the beehive above the log and fire that down too. Walk across the log
and lock on to Pooh, who will walk through the log. Walk to the next
set of blue flowers to float Pooh up. Then jump to his level. Lock onto
his and lead him to the hole in the tree. Piglet will talk to Pooh and
