Editing Second Form

|keyblades=[[Kingdom Key]], [[Starlight]], [[Midnight Blue]], [[Phantom Green]], [[Dawn Till Dusk]], [[Elemental Encoder]]

'''Second Form''' is a [[Formchange]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''. It grants Sora clothing based on his outfit from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' and gives him access to familiar abilities. It is triggered by the [[Kingdom Key]], [[Starlight]], [[Midnight Blue]], [[Phantom Green]], [[Dawn Till Dusk]], and [[Elemental Encoder]].

Although each of these Keyblades has a nominally different Formchange determined by the Keyblade—"Second Form", "Second Form S", "Second Form M", "Second Form P", "Second Form D", and "Second Form E", respectively—only Second Form S actually differs from the others.

Second Form changes Sora's clothes into the same colors and style of the clothes he wore in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. While wearing his original outfit during the [[Olympus]] episode, Sora's clothes do not change. In addition, when using the max-level [[Shotlock]], Sora's clothes will also briefly change to his ''Kingdom Hearts II'' style, even when not in Second Form.

Toy Box: Sora's blocks and patterns will look similar to his Kingdom Hearts II attire.

Monstropolis : His Jacket is identical to his normal form's Second Form jacket, but his fur will become golden yellow with blue stripes.

The Caribbean: Sora's bandana, cuff links and coattail turn gray. Also, his jacket is both gray with blue lines, and there are two crossing Keyblades on his hat.

 

Second Form grants Sora several of his abilities from ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' that are otherwise unusable outside of the Formchange. At any time, Sora can use a situation command finisher that will also terminate the Formchange. Each time he fills the Situation Gauge, this finisher is replaced with a more powerful finisher—first [[Stun Impact]], then [[Sonic Blade]], and finally [[Ars Arcanum]], or [[Ancient Light]] in the case of Second Form S. If Sora has [[Falling Slash]], [[Quick Slash]], [[Flash Step]], [[Radial Blaster]], [[Aerial Sweep]], or [[Aerial Dive]] equipped, Sora will use them as part of his combos while in Second Form.

Second Form is best suited for single target encounters or battles that give Sora breathing room to focus on one enemy at a time. When used for battling hordes, the player should focus on airborne enemies as this allows Sora to use Magnet Burst to drag in more enemies around him to no only do more damage, but to also fill up the situation bar faster. This tactic is especially useful for Second Form S because its third-level finisher, [[Ancient Light]], allows Sora to annihilate groups of enemies faster.
