==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Counter Shield is the Formchange of the [[Hero's Origin]] Keyblade, associated with [[Guardian Form]]. Its basic combo consists of Sora throwing the shield around himself and spinning it forwards before surrounding himself with an electric forcefield for the finisher. 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]]. The Attack command is replaced by '''Thunder''', allowing Sora to ride around the arena while casting bolts of lightning on any enemies present.
