The '''Armored Knight''' is an [[Emblem Heartless]] introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.


==Story==
The {{nihongo|'''Armored Knight'''|アーマーナイト|Āmā Naito|lit. "Armor Knight"}} is an [[Emblem Heartless]] from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It resembles a knight and, despite its fearsome appearance, it is one of the easiest enemies in the game. They have very low HP, and their [[Reaction Command]], Rising Sun, is very powerful. However, they do tend to swarm in large numbers! Many of them, along with [[Surveillance Robot]] [[Heartless]], are fought in the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]].
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
During the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]] in [[Hollow Bastion]], [[Sora]] has to single-handedly defeat a thousand Heartless, many of which are Armored Knights. Later, during a face-off against [[Saïx]], Sora is surrounded by a group of Armored Knights summoned by Saïx, who expects him to fight them and release the hearts contained inside them. It is then that Sora and company are dragged into the [[Realm of Darkness]] by [[Maleficent]].


Armored Knights appear in the scene in the [[Hall of Empty Melodies]], but do not appear in any other part of the world.
==Journal Entry==
''It charges its target in a group. Use the reaction command Rising Sun when it jumps into the sky, as it is about to unleash a tackling attack.''


==Design==
''Use Rising Sun in succession for various combos!''
An Armored Knight, true to its name, is a very thin, humanoid Heartless clad from head to toe in black, grey, and silver armor. Its spherical, pitch-black head and glowing, yellow eyes are visible in its helmet, and there are two red spirals decorating its visor. It also carries a sword with a gold guard and handle. Its Heartless emblem is on its abdomen.


The Armored Knight's name is a direct reference to its appearance, which is reminiscent of armor-clad knights.
==Locations==
* [[Hollow Bastion]]/[[Radiant Garden]]
* [[Beast's Castle]]
* [[Port Royal]]
* [[Halloween Town]]
* [[Pride Lands]]


==Strategy==
==Attacks==
The Armored Knight has low HP and is not especially aggressive, however it always appears in groups. Smaller groups can be dealt with using [[Magnet]] or [[Thunder]] magic, however in the Battle of the 1000 Heartless it is more efficient to utilize its powerful '''Rising Sun''' [[Reaction Command]]. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', Armored Knights are somewhat more dangerous due to having more powerful attacks, however [[Limit Form]] provides an easy way to take out many at once with [[Sonic Blade]] while replenishing HP in the process.
*'''Tripping Slash''': Lunging sword attack
*'''Spin Rush''': Horizontal spin attack
*'''Jump Rush''': Jumping sword thrust


The Armored Knight will often use its '''Jump Rush''' attack against distant opponents, as well as counterattacking with '''Spin Rush''', both of which will display its Reaction Command.
==Reaction Commands==
{{Atk-o|KH2}}
'''Rising Sun: '''Sora will rise into the air, then soar through the Knight. You can use this move six times consecutively without touching the ground, and it can be used against other enemies once it has been started.
{{Atk|col=3|{{nihongo|'''Tripping Slash'''|足払い斬り|<br>Ashiharai Kiri}}|Physical|x0.5{{KHII}}<br>x0.65{{FMII}}|O|Tilts body to the side and swings sword in a sweeping motion.}}
{{Atk|col=3|{{nihongo|'''Spin Rush'''|回転突進|<br>Kaiten Tosshin}}|Physical|x0.5{{KHII}}<br>x1.0{{FMII}}|O|Displays sword and rushes forward while spinning sideways.}}
{{Atk|col=3|{{nihongo|'''Jump Rush'''|ジャンプ突進|<br>Janpu Tosshin}}|Physical|x0.5{{KHII}}<br>x1.0{{FMII}}|O|After jumping, it thrusts its sword and charges.}}

==Other appearances==
==Trivia==
===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===
*Seven hundred of these fight Sora in the Battle of the 1000 Heartless, along with 300 Surveillance Robots.
Saïx is shown summoning a line of Armored Knights in the opening movie of ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''.
