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.

The '''Guardian''' is an [[Emblem Heartless]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''.
The '''Guardian''' is an Emblem [[Heartless]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''.
 
==Design==
The Guardian is a large, dark grey, funnel-shaped, mechanical Heartless with a diamond-shaped opening in its front, exposing its glowing, yellow eyes. Two dark grey, diamond-shaped guns are mounted on either side of its body. Each of these guns sports a red, pyramidal spike on both of its ends. There is a black ring that acts somewhat like a {{w|gyroscope}} hovering around its base, despite not being directly connected to the Heartless. This ring bears a vague resemblance to the top half of the Nobody symbol. The Guardian has a red spike on the top of its head, and its Heartless emblem is just below the opening for its eyes.
 
A "guardian" is a being that watches over or protects another. This may reference its similar appearance to the [[Surveillance Robot|Watcher]] Heartless, or, because of its greater power, the fact that it "guards" its weaker relatives.


==Strategy==
==Strategy==
Guardians can be tricky to defeat during early missions in the game, but they become easier to destroy as Roxas levels up. They do not possess a lot of HP, so offensive magic and aerial combos are highly recommended. They have only one attack, shooting a single long-ranged laser in Roxas's direction. This tactic causes the Null Defense status effect, but it can be easily avoided through the use of Dodge Roll. They have a chance of dropping rare Shining Shards when defeated, but also appear with several Watchers in the first encounter with one. For this match, simply use aerial combos in order to eliminate the lesser Heartless before pursuing the Guardian.
The battle ends when the Guardian is destroyed, so eliminate the Watcher sidekicks first for extra munny and HP prizes. Lock on to the Guardian and keep it in your sights at all times. When it puts its "arms" together and faces the ground, prepare to dodge to the left or right before it bissects the ground with its massive laser beam. Run to its side or behind it and attack it while it prepares for its next attack. Cast Fire spells to inflict additional damage if it floats too far away.
