| | In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Counter Shield is the Formchange of the [[Hero's Origin]] Keyblade, associated with [[Guardian Form]]. When active, Sora is capable to unleashing [[Strike Raid]]-esque throwing attacks and electric attacks. The Formchange's biggest boon, however, is being able to perform devastating counters. By blocking with {{button|square}}/{{button|dsx}}, Sora can charge the shield and replace the [[Attack]] command with a reprisal up to two times, the second reprisal being stronger than the first. |
| In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Counter Shield is the Formchange of the [[Hero's Origin]] Keyblade, associated with [[Guardian Form]]. It has a base duration of 30 seconds and a maximum combo length of 5. Its basic combo consists of Sora throwing the shield around himself and spinning it forwards, and the finishers consist of a spin attack and an electric forcefield. The Formchange's biggest boon is being able to perform devastating counters. Sora can use the [[Shield Charge]] ability to charge the shield by blocking and replace the [[Attack]] command with a reprisal up to two times. [[Wrathful Fist]] simply summons a giant fist from the shield, while [[Wrathful Flurry]] summons a barrage of fists. | |

| The Formchange finish command has Sora transform the Keyblade into a chariot pulled by an ethereal [[Pegasus]] and ride it around the arena. During this time, pressing {{button|x}} allows Sora to cast '''Thunder''' on any enemies present. | | The Formchange finish command has Sora transform the Keyblade into a chariot pulled by an ethereal [[Pegasus]].
