Warning red.pngREAD BEFORE EDITING:
  • Red-linked phrases should not be de-linked or pipe-linked if the phrase is from an official publication. Instead, please start an article or redirect at the link's target.
  • Technical info must be written in accordance with the consensus formats. Adding technical info without using these formats creates extra work for other editors and wastes everyone's time.
  • Trivia will be removed if it fails to meet the notability guidelines.
  • Do not source news to fansite translations of official publications or journals. Instead, source the publication or journal itself.
  • Based on the spelling used by the games, "Grey" is preferred over "Gray".
  • Entelechy is used here per its English definition, and is not meant to imply that it is an official term within the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
  • Do NOT add voice actors to a character's article UNLESS YOU HAVE A CLEAR SOURCE TO SUPPORT IT.

In ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'' when Sora and Riku use Flowmotion, they are enveloped in a magenta aura, and they are sometimes accompanied by two orbiting lights of the same color, that trail light behind them. In ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-'' and ''Kingdom Hearts III'' when Aqua and Sora use Flowmotion, they are enveloped in a blue aura.

When Sora awakens in [[Traverse Town]], [[Neku]] can be seen using Flowmotion over the rooftops, using a [[Wall Kick]] off the side of a particularly tall building. After the two of them meet, Neku heads for the Second District, executing a [[Pole Spin]], [[Rail Slide]], and [[Superjump]] along the way.

When Aqua heads toward the [[Castle of Dreams]] from the Main Road, a tremor causes the ground to collapse, forcing her to Rail Slide across a frozen river to reach the other side. She also uses Rail Slides while evading [[Darkside]]s in the [[Forest of Thorns]] of the [[Enchanted Dominion]].

===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
In [[San Fransokyo]], Sora demonstrates and executes several Flowmotion techniques during the Shugyo. His usage of [[Superslide]], [[Superjump]], [[Pole Spin]] and [[Free Running]], inspires [[Go Go Tomago]] to add similar techniques to her arsenal.
 
In [[The Caribbean]], when the [[Raging Vulture]] attacks the ''Black Pearl'', it is accompanied by numerous [[Vaporfly|Vaporflies]] trailing colored smoke. When one passes near the ''Pearl'', Sora uses Rail Slide to travel along the contrails, instructing Donald and Goofy to keep the ship safe while he deals with the Heartless.

In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', Flowmotion is activated by pressing {{button|DSY}} to [[Dodge Roll]] or [[Air Slide]] into a wall or other interactive object, or by landing on certain environmental features, such as rails or fountains. Sora or Riku will perform a context-sensitive action, such as briefly sticking to and jumping off of a wall or spinning around a pole after Air Sliding into it. Using an Air Slide, Sonic Impact, or Double Impact to transition into Flowmotion will work faster than using a Dodge Roll. During a Flowmotion command, Sora or Riku cannot be staggered, but they can still receive damage.

Using an Air Slide, Sonic Impact, or Double Impact to transition into Flowmotion will work faster than using a Dodge Roll. During a Flowmotion command, Sora or Riku cannot be staggered, but they can still receive damage.
 
Once a Flowmotion is activated, it can be chained together with additional actions. The player may press {{button|DSY}} to use a [[Superslide]] to travel long distances or transition to another Flowmotion-compatible surface, {{button|DSB}} to perform a [[Superjump]] that boosts the user to a great height, or {{button|DSA}} to use a {{nihongo|'''Flowmotion Attack'''|フリーフローアタック|Furīfurō Atakku|lit. "Freeflow Attack"}}, which depends on the Flowmotion action the player is using.<!--what does this mean?
When you finish a boss, a portal, etc, using Kick Dive before you begin to do the shockwave will make the finish quickly vanish.-->
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Flowmotion is no longer as potent as its incarnation in ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''; however it remains a viable method of quickly moving across the map, especially early game. Flowmotion is activated by pressing {{button|s}} to [[Air Slide]] or [[Aerial Dodge]] into a wall, or by landing on certain environmental features, such as rails. Using [[Dodge Roll]] onto these surfaces will no longer activate Flowmotion, but certain magics will now cause it to activate, such as [[Blizzard]] and [[Aero]]. Also, Sora can be staggered while in Flowmotion.


Once Flowmotion is activated, it can still be chained together with additional actions but (again) not to the extent as it could in its debut. The player may press {{button|s}} to use a [[Superslide]] to travel long distances (equipping more will cause the distance to increase dramatically); or they may {{button|c}} to perform a [[Superjump]] that boosts the user to a great height, though Super Jump can no longer be chained. {{nihongo|'''Flowmotion Attacks'''|フリーフローアタック|Furīfurō Atakku|lit. "Freeflow Attack"}} return, linked to {{button|x}}, though they are now slightly different. [[Kick Dive]] is replaced with [[Sonic Slash]], and [[Shock Dive]] is replaced with [[Sonic Cleave]], which does not generate a shockwave.
Once a Flowmotion is activated, it can be chained together with additional actions. The player may press {{button|DSY}} to use a [[Burst of Speed]] (renamed Super Slide in KH3) to travel long distances or transition to another Flowmotion-compatible surface, {{button|DSB}} to perform a [[Super Jump]] that boosts the user to a great height, or {{button|DSA}} to use a {{nihongo|'''Flowmotion Attack'''|フリーフローアタック|Furīfurō Atakku|lit. "Freeflow Attack"}}, which depends on the Flowmotion action the player is using.<!--what does this mean?
