Sky Grappler
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
These mid-sized flying Heartless put the wind to expert use when attacking. They move swiftly, but are vulnerable just after kicking, so be ready to mount a counteroffensive. They also retain their kind's immunity to Aero magic.

The Sky Grappler is an Emblem Heartless that is found in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.

Design

A Sky Grappler is a vaguely humanoid Heartless with navy blue skin and two large, blue, curled wings. Its head is spherical with a jagged mouth and glowing yellow eyes, and it is mostly covered by a white helmet. This helmet is adorned with two conical, red spikes on either side, two angular, black and red spirals on its front, and a curled, blue antenna on its top. Most of its body is also covered by white and grey armor, with its Heartless emblem emblazoned on its abdomen. The Sky Grappler's legs end in small, red spikes and it holds a gold punching weapon lined by red spikes in each hand.

The Sky Grappler's name refers to its aerial battle style. "Grappler" is derived from the verb "grapple" which means "to wrestle".

Strategy

The Sky Grappler is fought much the same as its variations, simply look for when it begins charging and block or Dodge Roll accordingly, then counterattack with physical combos. Fire magic is also an option, though Blizzard will be unlikely to catch up with the flying Heartless, and Thunder deals little damage due to the Sky Grappler's resistance to it.
