Wyvern

Kingdom Hearts
Giant Heartless that attack from the air. They are quite swift for their size and are hard to attack, especially while they are high in the air. Counterattacking when they come down would be most effective.
Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories
An enormous Heartless that hunts its enemies from the skies.

The Wyvern is agile despite its size. Upon sighting its prey, it rushes forward and attacks with a flurry of kicks.
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded
Large, flying Heartless that drive straight at their prey from above. Unfortunately, "the bigger they are" doesn't apply here; Wyverns move fast and mean business. Hit them with magic, though, and you can reduce their altitude, bringing them down within reach of a jumping attack.
Kingdom Hearts Union χ
A high-flying Heartless with HP and strength to match. Dispel its status enhancements or paralyze it to bring it down to earth!

The Wyvern is an Emblem Heartless introduced in Kingdom Hearts.

Development[edit]

In an early trailer for Kingdom Hearts II, Wyverns with the color scheme from Kingdom Hearts Final Mix are shown flying around in the Battle of the 1000 Heartless. However, Wyverns do not appear in the final game.

Design[edit]

A Wyvern is a large, draconian creature with predominantly dark red skin, save for its belly, which is tan, and its wings, which are salmon-colored, though its wingtips are dark red. Its body is rather thin, while its three-toed feet are quite large, each sporting black talons. Its wings seem rather thin when compared to its body, and its wingtips appear tattered, with several small holes in them. There is a tall, slightly curved spike on each of its shoulders. The Wyvern's tail is fairly short, particularly in comparison to similar Heartless, and its head is V-shaped and flat. It has beady yellow eyes on either side of its head, and its Heartless emblem is on its chest.

In Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, the Wyvern's skin becomes a faded shade of blue and black, its belly becomes dull yellow, the tips of the spikes on its shoulders and head become pale yellow, and the tips of its wings becomes blue.

A "Wyvern" is a type of winged dragon with only legs and no forearms. The name could also be a reference to the recurring enemy from the Final Fantasy series.

Strategy[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

Wyverns are able to maintain what seems to be almost effortless flight. Their feet never touch the ground, and they are able to soar to heights unreachable by Sora. These Heartless are capable of powerful ramming attacks, and corkscrew dives, both of which can be deadly and shave off respectable amounts of HP.

They are quite powerful, and attack with claws and a corkscrew charge. They have a tendency to soar high up in the air, and then swoop down vertically on the enemy, dealing damage.

Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories[edit]

When facing a Wyvern, the player character should absolutely watch out for the Flurry Kick attack, as it deals consecutive hits and is hard to cardbreak when hit a single time, and can have Riku exit from Dark Mode rather quickly.
