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.

==Story==
This type of heartless has hard-to-read attack cycle. One moment it's in orb form, flying around Sora's head, the next moment charging up an attack by spewing a homing ball of light from it's mouth. I cannot tell you a specific pattern that it does, but I can tell you what sort of attacks it does, and when they may happen.
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
This heartless accutally only has a few basic attacks, but they are quite powerful, so watch out.
During the climax of [[Sora]]'s adventures in [[Halloween Town]], [[Oogie Boogie]] calls out to the Heartless after swallowing the artificial heart created by [[Dr. Finkelstein]], hoping to control them. The only Heartless that came to help him were two Gargoyles.


==Design==
Wing Attack: Unexpectantly enlarges it's wings and thrusts them at you with alarming speed, dealing great damage.
Heartless Gargoyles have dark grey skin is covered by a dark purple bodysuit with roughly stitched-on light purple sleeves that end in a gold zig-zag trim and jagged edges. The purple color extends to cover the head and horns, and the horns also feature black stripes. Like other Heartless, the Gargoyle has golden eyes and a craggy maw, but it can unhinge its jaw to fearsome proportions. Their talons are long, but not nearly as alien as their dark grey feet, which are spindly and two-toed. Their leather-like wings are also pointy and sharp, particularly the tops which resemble spires, spearheads, or even a portion of the [[Nobody]] symbol.
When?: This attack ussually happens when it first appears, but only if it's close to you. It may go into an orb state to get closer to you first. Using the equipped ability, Guard, may help if you use it quickly.


The ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]'' Gargoyles are much more colorful than the darker version seen in the original game. The ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'' versions are clad in light blue, with bright green sleeves, the blue gradating to a pale pink on the top of the heads and horns, and flame-like orange and yellow wings, while their feet are black.
Claw Attack: Lashes out with claws, dealing a heavy blow.
When?: Sometimes after the Wing Attack, but it may vary. It needs to be very colse to you for this attack, so it's best to use Guard, or simply back off a bit.


The Gargoyle gets its name from resembling architectural {{w|gargoyle}}s, stone representations of a mythological spirit said to ward off darkness.
Kick Attack: Takes a quick swing with both it's legs at you, dealing small damage.
When?: If the heartless did a Wing attack, followed up with a Claw attack, then it probably will use the Kick attack. Once again, Guard or Dodge Roll may be the best solution to getting out of the attack's range.


==Strategy==
Spewing Attack: Throwing back its head, it almost seems to gargle a heat-seeking ball of powerful enrgey, causing heavy damage.
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
When?: It ussually does this when up high and just or out of reach. This attack is very persistent, and follows you slowly and itimidates you. It's best to try as hard as you can to hit the heartless before it attacks, as to break the process of making the ball.
This type of Heartless has a hard-to-read attack cycle. One moment it is in orb form, flying around [[Sora]]'s head, the next moment charging up an attack by spewing a homing ball of light from its mouth. This Heartless actually only has a few basic attacks, but they are quite powerful, so watch out.


If timed correctly, Sora can earn [[Tech Points]] for blocking the Gargoyle's attacks.<ref>Before Kairi's rescue, 6 Tech Points can be earned for deflecting the Spewing Attack in ''Kingdom Hearts''.</ref><ref>After Kairi's rescue, 36 Tech Points can be earned for deflecting the Spewing Attack in ''Kingdom Hearts''.</ref><ref>After Kairi's rescue, 12 Tech Points can be earned for deflecting the Wing Attack in ''Kingdom Hearts''.</ref>
Transporting: Not so much as an attack, but more of an unexpected way for it to get closer to you. It silently turns into a ball of blue flame, and dives down towards you, preparing for an attack. Be on your guard if you see one doing this.
{{atk-o|kh1}}
When?: This happens when it's up high, too far or too high for you to get at it. Best way to deal with it is to simply attack it when it comes out of its state. It is impossible to attack it while it is in its orb form.
