'''Final Form''' is a [[Drive Form]] that unleashes the [[Keyblade]]'s true power which appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It uses both of Sora's party members, and consumes five of [[Sora]]'s Drive Bars. It represents Sora's completion,<ref>'''Yen Sid's mirror''': "An image of the [[Keyblade]] unleashing its ultimate power flows into your mind."</ref> and can be unlocked after Sora and [[Roxas]] come to terms at the [[Dive to the Heart]]. Its emblem is a white wave.


==Design==
==How to obtain==
{{Main|Form:Sora}}
[[Image:Sora_Final_Form.jpg|left|200px]]Sora's Final Form is earned a little bit differently compared to the others, as it first occurs randomly when Sora turns into a Drive Form after defeating [[Roxas]] in a cutscene after '''Memories Skyscraper''' at the beginning of the [[World that Never Was]]. The precise mechanism is that when Sora transforms into one of his Drive forms, there is a chance that the Final Form appears instead. Continually transforming to your Drive forms after the encounter with Roxas will eventually result in a 100% chance that the next Form will be replaced by Final Form.
This form changes Sora's clothes to silvery white and black, with the symbols on his pants somewhat resembling an eye with a wind pattern. This may be referenced to the fact that while Anti-Form resembles a [[Heartless]], Final Form, which is silvery white and possesses the traits of Nobodies, can be obtained after Roxas comes to terms with Sora. Each Keyblade seems to move with an arm, though when Sora stops moving they hover behind him. Thus, every move is an attack in itself.  


Final Form changes designs depending on the world he is in:
But getting it on your drive list is a bit tricky. Not too far into the [[Castle That Never Was]] is an area called '''Twilight's View''', which contains a save point. If the player enters this area before defeating [[Xigbar]], any Drive Form they are in will be reverted and their Drive Gauge replenished. Thus, the best way to activate Final Form is to go to the room prior, '''Crooked Ascension''', and enter a Drive Form. If Final Form doesn't activate, the player can simply return to Twilight's View to restore their Gauge. This can be repeated over and over until Final Form activates, as long as the player does not defeat Xigbar in the next room. Crooked Ascension also respawns Nobodies, if the player wishes to level up Final Form at the same time as acquiring it.
*In [[Timeless River]], Sora's appearance does not change. However, his HUD sprite gains a white tint.
*In [[Halloween Town]], Sora's mask is changed into a crown.
*In [[Christmas Town]]{{FMII}}, Sora's hat has a silver N-shaped rune, and the back of his shirt has a pair of wings.
*In [[Space Paranoids]], Sora's armor becomes grey with silver circuitry.


No matter what world Sora is on, while in Final Form, he never touches the ground unless he lands from a jump. Sora's hair and clothes slowly flow as if he is being held by the wind. His clothes also systematically glow white on and off for the duration of the time he is in the form. There are also two large sparkles of pure white [[light]] that move randomly around Sora with a white wisp following them. When Sora is standing still, the position of his Keyblades seem to represent folded angel wings. When he floats (which he does instead of walking and running), they open, as if Sora is flying.
The easiest way to get this form is to go to [[Olympus Coliseum]], and go to the arena and play the [[Cerberus Cup]] (the only one where you can use forms).


==Mechanics==
You can go into any Drive Form and see if you get the Final Form. If you get the Form, exit the tournament and you will have it in your Drive menu. If you didn't get it, press start, select try again and repeat it until you get it. It may take a while but it's the easiest and shortest way to get it.
Although Final Form is unlocked after fighting Roxas, it is not added to the Drive menu right away. It first has to be activated randomly instead of [[Antiform]]. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', it has a 25% chance to activate when activating Antiform the first time, 50% chance the second time, and 100% chance after that. In ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', it has a 3% chance the first time, 9% chance the second time, 27% chance the third time, and 75% chance after that. Equipping the [[Light & Darkness]] [[ability]] allows Antiform to trigger every time, greatly increasing the chance of obtaining Final Form.


Final Form is a powerful form that gives Sora the ability to wield two Keyblades through telekinesis. Physical attacks are extremely quick and powerful with new finishers that deal high amounts of damage. The floating Keyblades automatically attack when performing actions, like jumping and gliding. [[Magic]] is also made more powerful, as individual spells perform differently than usual. Final Form also has drastic mobility changes; Sora floats above the ground instead of walking, jumps higher than usual, and has the [[Growth Ability]] to [[glide]]. The Keyblades can also be used as a shield as well as a weapon. When gliding, the Keyblades spin forming a shield in front of Sora to block incoming attacks. Some abilties from Final Form can still have Sora perform combo finishers under [[Berserk Charge]] while in MP Charge.
Another way is to first obtain the [[Ultima Weapon]] keychain, and then transform into Master Form in Memory's Skyscraper after fighting Roxas; Final Form will most likely appear instead.


Final Form gains an [[experience]] point for each [[Nobody]] defeated, including [[Organization XIII]] members. Leveling up Final Form will upgrade the Growth Ability, [[Glide]], for itself and Sora's standard form. Also, leveling up Final Form grants [[Auto Final]] and two [[Form Boost]] abilities to Sora's standard form.
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+|Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix]]'', the keychain [[Two Across]], obtained after defeating Roxas, has the '''Light & Dark''' ability which allows Sora to switch either to Anti-Form or Final Form - thus increasing the possibility of Sora getting Final Form in his drive list.

==Battle Information==  
{{frm-atk-o|kh2=*|o=*}}
Similar to Sora's [[Master Form]] and [[Valor Form]], his Final Form wields two Keyblades. His Final Form constantly hovers above the ground. It appears to be an amplified version of Master Form, with both powerful melee attacks and magic spells. Both of his Keyblades float along with him, and he commands them to attack with his mind. The keyblades will strike when Sora jumps or glides as well, making most of his actions effectively attacks.

==Strategy==
==Leveling Up==
Final Form turns Sora into a living weapon; simply making contact with enemies while gliding or jumping does damage. Final Form is useful against all enemies, because Sora's power, speed, and magic are dramatically increased. Like [[Wisdom Form]], Sora glides along the ground rather than running, and becomes able to perform commands while moving. His casting is sped up and all his magic finishers increase in power and area of effect as well. Always be prepared to cast [[Curaga]] if needed, as there are no [[party members]] to help.
Final Form gains experience only with the destruction of [[Nobody|Nobodies]]. So for Sora to build it up may be difficult, though easy spots tend to be found in the [[World that Never Was]] and [[Twilight Town]]. An exceptionally good area to level it up in the [[World that Never Was]] is Naught's Skyway, since there is an abundance of [[Creeper |Creepers]].


Since Final Form levels by defeating [[Nobodies]], it is best to avoid using it while fighting [[Heartless]]. Try to defeat enemies as fast as possible by mixing up standard attacks with magic. The best Keyblades for training Final Form are the [[Bond of Flame]], whose [[Fire Boost]] makes it easier to quickly slay Nobodies, or the [[Fatal Crest]] and [[Fenrir]], which have excellent stats. The [[Ultima Weapon]]'s [[MP Hastega]] is very useful in making it easier to slay Nobodies, while [[Oathkeeper]]'s [[Form Boost]] allows Sora to remain in Final Form longer. Given Final Form's attacks cover a wide area, one could equip [[Oblivion]] as Sora's main Keyblade so he can quickly recover Drive Bars while his [[MP]] is recharging. The best locations to train at are the [[Mysterious Tower]] and [[Naught's Skyway]] in the [[Castle That Never Was]], as they have Nobodies to fight rather than Heartless; Naught's Skyway is also close to the [[Proof of Existence]], allowing Sora to quickly refill his Drive Gauge.
An easy way to level up Final Form is to go to the white room in [[Twilight Town]] and activate Final Form. From there, you can clean up the Nobodies outside in the mansion's main area. From there, you go back to the white room's [[Save Point]] and go to the world map before the Drive Gauge runs out. From there, you can repeat as the Drive Gauge replenishes if you go to the world map while you're still in a Drive. The easiest way to level up with this method is by stocking up on ethers and using thunder to destroy the nobodies quickly. Once Final Form is leveled up sufficiently, you can reach the computer room starting from the white room, killing all the Nobodies in between.


As activating Final Form reduces the amount of points by 10 on [[AntiForm]]'s hidden counter, extensively using this form can make it easier to activate [[Valor Form]], [[Wisdom Form]], [[Limit Form]], and [[Master Form]] during battle without the risk of accidentally triggering AntiForm by mistake.
The ability honed by levelling up Final Form is Glide. This is perhaps one of the most useful abilities in the whole game, allowing the closest thing to flight available. Levelling up Final Form increases the speed when gliding.  Sora also gains Form Boost while leveling up this form.

==Other information==

Though turning into Final Form is completely random at first, once obtained it may be used like any other form. Sora's clothes in this form are white/silver and black, with the symbols on his pants somewhat resembling an eye with a wind pattern. This may be referenced to the fact that while Anti-Form resembles a Heartless, after Roxas comes to terms with Sora, Final Form can be obtained, which is silvery white and possesses the traits of Nobodies. Each Keyblade seems to move with an arm, though when Sora stops moving they hover behind him. And thus, every move is an attack in itself. His combos unleash numerous blows as the Keyblades spin and twirl dealing "grinding" damage.

'''Pros'''<br>
*Great enhancements in speed.
*Fast combos and high damage dealer.
*Speed and damage boosts to Blizzard and Fire.
*Allows actions to be executed while moving.
*Keyblades guard against projectiles while Sora is gliding.
*Several attacks are mid range, letting Sora attack without being attacked.
*Magnega delivers any items dropped by enemies destroyed within it ( Synthesis, Hp, Munny, etc) straight to Sora.
*Almost all actions/attacks preformed in Final Form block attacks and reflect projectiles.
*Attacks cannot do not bounce off guards, but follow through (ex: large bodies)
'''Cons'''<br>
*Attacks involve multiple slashes and take time to execute; they cannot be canceled in mid-swing.
*Final form's constant movement sometimes keeps moves from hitting fully, less ability to 'hold' enemies during combos.
*Both partners can not be used during this drive.
* Has the lowest magic haste of any form, except Valor which uses no magic. However, using [[Ultima Weapon]] or [[Circle of Life]] can remove this con, though Circle of life will only upgrade it to Mp Hastera.
*Final's Magnega does not last long.
*Final's ground combo finishers are much stronger then the air combos, but harder to perform.
==Helpful hints==
*In order to gain quick EXP's for Final Form, simply Form change in the Brink of Despair, and go throughout the levels in the Castle that Never Was, go to the Save Point to restore Sora's HP and MP, and return to fight with his normal Form until he regains at least five Drive Gauges.
*Alternatively, make use of the fact that entering a room where Drives are disabled (such as the Altar of Naught after the Xemnas first battle) or using a Save Point to teleport to the Gummi Ship while in a Drive Form automatically reverts Sora but completely replenishes his Drive Gauge. Simply activate the form, gain some experience, then nip back to the nearest Save Point before the Form expires. The two Form Boost abilities (which are learned, somewhat ironically, from leveling up Final Form) and the Oathkeeper Keyblade help. Incidentally, this method applies equally to all other forms.
*Another alternative is to run down Yen Sid's tower slaying Nobodies, and when reaching the bottom going to the Gummi ship to regain full drive then repeating.
*Also go to the Cerberus Cup (or rather, any Underworld Cup) and exit as soon as you can, and you will have a full drive gauge.
== Representation ==
This form represents the climax of Sora's power as the Keyblade Wielder of Light and Roxas' awakening from his slumber inside Sora, which also awakens the other half of his power. While in his normal form, Sora cannot manipulate the power of light to the level or extent that [[Roxas]] does (at least Roxas at max power), however, in this form, Sora's control over the element equals or nearly eaquals Roxas's, shown by the bursts of light that surround almost all his attacks, due to Sora reuniting with his nobody. This form also shows Sora's ultimate power over the Keyblades and [[Light]], as shown by his angelic luminescence and dazzling display of light and Keyblade manipulation during battle.
==Trivia==
*In Halloween Town, Sora's mask transforms into a crown when in Final Form.
*Despite not having the [[High Jump]] ability in this Form, Sora is still able to perform one, or at least a jump that is very similar. The reason for this is unknown.
*It seems that Final Form is Sora's way of using Roxas' power, or rather his own power that he regained from Roxas:
**Final Form only levels up when defeating Nobodies, and can only be acquired after defeating Roxas.
**The artwork for Final Form has the Oblivion and Oathkeeper, Roxas' Keyblades.
**The color scheme of Final Form is white, black and silver - Roxas' clothes in Twilight Town are white and silver, and Sora's are black. It is also the basic color scheme for the common Nobodies and for Xemnas' robe in the final battle.
<!--**(When fighting Roxas in ''Final Mix+'', his fighting style is similar to that of Final Form.
How?) It bears some similarities (the ground combos), but other than that I don't remember.-->
*The status screen describes [[Final Form]] as "Unleashing the [[Keyblade]]'s true form and power".
*Final Form and Anti-Form are considered "Light and Dark" in ''Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix'', and seem to correspond to Nobodies and Heartless, respectively. They also have similar combo-based fighting styles, and using Final Form greatly decreases the chance of becoming Anti-Form.
*Auto Assault causes Aerial Dodge to function the same as Retaliating Slash.
*The Final Arts combo finish and the 'Dark Arts' combo finish of Anti Form are similar. The ending of Final Strike and 'Anti Strike' of Anti Form are nearly the same.
*Besides regular Sora, Final Form is the only Form that can release a finishing move with every attack button press after taking away all of Sora's Combo Plus abilities, equipping Negative Combo and Fenrir. This is because Final Form is the only form to lack a Combo/Air Combo Plus.
