{{Q|The one and only GENIE OF THE LAMP!|Genie}}

'''Genie''' is the spirit of the magic lamp and is a recurring character and [[Summon]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. He is originally from the Disney movie ''{{w|Aladdin (1992 Disney film)|Aladdin}}''. As a genie, he holds the cosmic power of granting three wishes to the one who holds his lamp.

Genie's lamp was first discovered by [[Aladdin]] in the [[Cave of Wonders]]. He planned to use his three wishes to help [[Jasmine]] and then win her heart, but all of his wishes ended up being wasted on getting him and his friends out of trouble. The first wish was spent on getting rid of a [[Heartless]] attack and the second one to rescue [[Jasmine]] from [[Jafar]]. Eventually, [[Iago]] steals Genie's lamp and gives it to Jafar, who forces Genie to show Jafar the [[Keyhole]] of [[Agrabah]] and assisting him in fighting [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], [[Goofy]] and Aladdin. To become more powerful, Jafar demands Genie turn him into an all-powerful genie. After Jafar is defeated, Jasmine is kidnapped and taken to another world. Genie offers Aladdin to return Jasmine, but Aladdin wishes Genie free from his lamp prison as he'd promised earlier. He then becomes a Summon for Sora. Unlike many of the other Summons, he does so of his own free will instead of being summoned from a gem.

===''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''===

Genie serves as a fragment of Sora's memory in the Agrabah floor. After Sora defeats Jafar, who is also a fragment of his memory, Genie gives Sora his summon card.

Genie reappears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' in [[Agrabah]] where he talks to [[Roxas]] and [[Xion]]. By this time, Genie and Carpet are on their way to travel the world. Once Genie hears that Agrabah is in trouble he decides not to go on his tour, but sways his decision after Roxas tells him that Aladdin wants to fix the town himself. After Roxas inadvertently helps Aladdin and Jasmine, Genie is thankful to Roxas and leaves once again. This is the only game so far that Genie doesn't serve as a summoning creature.

In the ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' manga, Genie helps Roxas and Xion defeat the [[Antlion]] by holding it still to stop its rotation.

When Sora, Donald, and Goofy reache Agrabah, they learn Genie has gone off to see the world along with [[Carpet]]. However, he arrives near the end of Sora's first visit and disturbs [[Pete]], who tries to free Jafar from his lamp. Later, Genie clears out a sandstorm for Sora when they try to go the ruins to find Jafar, and fixes Agrabah after Jafar's destruction. He seems to have somewhat more ego here than in the first game, as he complains that one lousy sandstorm is just too easy and that he didn't get to help in the battle against Jafar. Genie once again becomes a summon partner for Sora, and gives him the [[Lamp Charm]]. As a summon, he is able to imitate Sora's [[Drive Form|Drive forms]] and wields his own [[Keyblade]].

[[Data-Sora]] visits Data Agrabah and is seen talking with Data Genie. Genie helps Sora throughout his journey to debug Agrabah after Sora recovers his lamp from Iago. This time, Genie becomes Sora's party member instead of Aladdin.

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', he is able to perform multiple magic tricks to attack Heartless, such as shooting magic beams and performing the magic spells Sora already knows by activating the command on the lower section of the menu, '''Showtime'''. His attacks can only become available if the player locks onto a target.

===''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''===

Genie appears as a [[summon card]] after clearing Agrabah's [[Room of Truth]]. When his card is used, Genie appears and casts either [[Thundara]], [[Gravira]], or [[Stopra]]. Stocking multiple Genie cards create the [[Showtime Lv2]] and [[Showtime Lv3]] sleights, which increases the amount of times Genie casts a spell.

In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', when Genie once again becomes a summon partner for Sora, he can copy Sora's Drive forms and wields his own copy of the Keyblade. In each form, he can perform a different kind of attack. However, he can only mimic the Drive Forms that Sora has obtained. If Sora gets injured, he will heal his wounds.

'''Genie's Keyblade''' has a dark red handle surrounded by a guard with two, light-blue teardrop-shaped cloud wisps pointed upward ending in a light purple gradient and connects to two circular gold cloud wisps. At the bottom base of the handle, there is another cloud wisp that seems to flow when the Keyblade moves. The shaft of the Keyblade begins white at the base and ends in a flat gold cylinder at the top. A replica of Genie’s lamp sits atop the shaft and the spout of the lamp serves as the “teeth” of the Keyblade. There is no Keychain for Genie’s Keyblade, as the flowing cloud wisp at the bottom connects to Genie’s smoky tail.
