Xehanort will attack whenever an opening to do so presents itself, but it is easy to heal safely by simply dashing far away from him first with either [[Slide]], [[Dodge Roll]], or [[Cartwheel]]. It is also somewhat easy to guard against his attacks by mashing {{button|s}}, so the protagonist can also heal by using [[Renewal Block]] or [[Renewal Barrier]] and deliver damage through counterattacks. Because Xehanort leaves little time for the protagonist to act, it is unwise to use any advanced or ultimate commands, as they take too long to fire and reload. Shotlocks are also good options, but Xehanort tends to evade the Shotlock reticle, and can use Renewal Block to heal himself if the Shotlock hits him too much. If the protagonist decides to rely on Shotlocks, they should stock many Elixirs in order to make sure their Focus Gauge never runs out. D-Links can also work, especially Goofy's for Ventus and Aqua due to the Goofy Spin finisher allowing free movement and rapid blows. However, Xehanort may turn invisible in response, so it may not be ideal to use them. Finally, since Xehanort leaves little time for Keyblade combos, the protagonist's equipped Keyblade and Finish command are not important, but the Keyblade equipped should lean towards the Strength stat.

The safest and simplest way to defeat Young Xehanort is to simply use a deck of 2-4 Cure-type commands, and fill the rest with Fire/Thunder Surges. Thunder Surge is generally better because it grants access to the [[Thunderbolt]] Command Style, and Thunderbolt's finisher, being an area-of-effect attack, is more effective at striking Young Xehanort than [[Firestorm]]'s. A good way to arrange the Command Deck is to have Thunder Surge, Cure, Thunder Surge, Cure and so on, so that both commands are easily accessible and it also helps with not needing to cycle through commands that are reloading. With this deck, the protagonist can use Thunder Surge over and over, even when Xehanort is invisible, damaging Xehanort if they hit him and often knocking him out of his combos. The protagonist should make sure to use Thunder Surge so that they go through Xehanort and winds up a short distance past him, rather than next to him, but should dash away instead if Xehanort is right next to the protagonist, as Thunder Surge has a tiny but noticeable start-up lag. Thunder Surge can even be used as a pseudo-dash in order to avoid Xehanort's techniques, like his Collision Magnet. If the protagonist is ever hit by an attack, they should immediately start dashing away, normally, and heal with Cure as soon as they are clear from Xehanort. If playing as Ventus, it's a good idea to stock up on Double Crunch Ice Cream to activate Wingblade, which allows him to hit Xehanort with a combo of Keyblade attacks that he can't easily break out of.

If playing as Aqua or Ventus with a level 4 [[Cartwheel]] or Dodge Roll, every attack is avoidable by repeatedly Cartwheeling or Dodge Rolling, as they provide total i-frame coverage, completely trivializing the battle. However, when playing as Terra, even after setting up a working deck and overall strategy, victory against Xehanort relies primarily on luck, due to his penchant for using unavoidable, instant-death combos.

Xehanort tends to warp away from projectiles and attack commands, but will be open to attack when he pauses to launch his own ranged attacks. Xehanort will periodically teleport away and use his Zero Shot at Riku. Defend using Dark Barrier, staying near to or far away from him, or dodge continually. If the projectiles connect, they will inflict Slow, so quickly cure it with Esuna or let your dream eaters use theirs or a Panacea if Slow Block is not equipped. He can also use Teleport Rocks, to summon blue rocks that must be blocked or dodged. When Xehanort prepares this attack, move close to him, blocking the rocks, and use Counter Aura in front of him. Make sure to watch how he warps around the arena, because it will signal which attack he will use, and will provide Riku enough time to use powerful attacks such as Dark Aura. If timed carefully, Dark Aura will keep hitting Xehanort and stops his movements for a while, dealing heavy damage.

Alternatively, continue using Firaga Burst, Balloonga, and other attack magic in conjunction with spirit attacks. Keep also in mind the Haste Support Magic after being cast on Riku can be handy, not only to speed up the reloading times but also his main combos, which can keep staggering Young Xehanort as well. After Xehanort staggers from enough hits, he will use Guard Impact, where he Formchanges his Keyblade into a shield and if Riku hits it, Xehanort will counterattack. If he teleports up and falls, he will use Whip Wave. Get ready to block or to Shadow Slide when he reaches the ground. If Xehanort teleports constantly from right to left, he will prepare a version of Wild Arcanum where he warps between each strike. He will teleport like this twice; once he warps the fourth time, get ready to block or use Shadow Slide. If he is a fair distance away, he will start teleporting from side to side again, gradually getting closer to Riku, and use Flash Liner. Get as close to Xehanort as possible when this occurs. After he teleports the third time in this manner, use Dark Barrier near him to block the lasers and use Counter Aura in front of him. If possible, utilize Shadow Slide and Shadow Strike to attack and stop Xehanort's attack.

Once Xehanort's health has been depleted to 1, he will freeze time and warp into a giant Clock that appears in the center of the arena. Wait until the option to perform a [[Mirage Split]] [[Reality Shift]] appears. This will trigger the final stage of the battle. The Reality Shift prompt will appear within a split second. If Riku misses the timing, Xehanort will rewind time to the beginning of the fight and heal his HP, with his max HP cut at 30% (approximately two and a half life bars). His health must be depleted again in order to perform Mirage Split, but this time, the prompt will remain for a longer period of time.

Young Xehanort is fought alongside Ansem and Xemnas by Sora, Riku and [[King Mickey]] as the final boss fights of the Keyblade Graveyard. Although his health is less than that of the other two top-tier members of the Real Organization XIII, he is still not to be underestimated. Young Xehanort is able to turn his Keyblade into a whip that has a long range and can also briefly ensnare Sora and is able to summon a small rift to launch a whip attack from. He can also summon a ring of 9 icicles that he launches at Sora which deals Blizzard damage and his deadliest attack has him summoning a circle of time that stops time as he unleashes invisible attacks at Sora. It's recommended to take him out first as he's the easiest to combo, if hit twice by his whip combos, it is possible to quickly block the third attack and use [[Risk Dodge]] to fight back. The whip combo can also hit you in the air. Each member will have a dark aura surrounding them whenever they disappear and reappear to attack, which means they'll only target Sora and each of them will use a specific attack with the one with the aura appearing last. For Young Xehanort, Ansem and Xemnas will create dark mines and ethereal blades followed by Xehanort's time-stopping attack. Jump and block the ethereal blades and use [[thunder]] to destroy the mines to avoid damage. During Master Xehanort's storm of Keyblades, each member will use an attack in a specific order. For all three, Young Xehanort will use his time-stopping attack followed by Xemnas's rolling attack and Ansem's shockwave. The best way to avoid them is to jump over Xehanort's, block Xemnas's incoming attack and [[glide]] away from Ansem. If Xemnas is beaten, Xehanort will launch the icicles followed by Ansem's shockwave attack. Having Riku and Mickey active is wise as they can do double and triple damage when attacking together, if they're trying to attack your target, it's wise to stop your combos and let them land their own.

|Master Xehanort summons a storm of Keyblades that temporarily removes Riku and Mickey and surrounds the battlefield. Bundles of Keyblades will fly around Sora one-by-one (the last four bundles directly target him). Afterward, remaining enemies attack in succession; techniques used depend on those remaining.

If Young Xehanort jumps into the air and dives with a green spinning attack, he will do his triple spin combo. He will do 3 dive spins with a small pause between each, before finishing with a quick fourth strike downward. Guard the three spins and the fourth hit, then reprisal for a chance to attack.

Young Xehanort will execute a variant of Malice Whip, where he appears with a large clock below him and swing his whip once at Sora. If it lands, then the screen will go negative for a moment as Sora receives a barrage of attacks that can inflict [[Time Break]]. This whip swing and its variations is the only unblockable attack that Young Xehanort can do, so dodge it or air slide away. If Young Xehanort misses this attack then he will slowly walk sideways, but he is NOT open to attack yet. He will do a small teleport and continue walking, at which point it is safe to Airstep to him and attack. Alternatively, after missing his clock whip swing, Young Xehanort may quickly teleport 3 times before standing still. If he does this instead of the walk, then Airstep to him after the three teleports as he will be open to attack.

* Young Xehanort will also perform this move if his revenge value is hit - in that case dodge, but there will not be an opportunity to attack.
