In this form, Sora wields two [[Keyblades]], and is also very dexterous, sometimes even spinning the Keyblade on a single finger during a combo. No matter what world Sora is in, Sora's hands glow light red and flicker with red electricity. When Sora runs in Valor Form, flakes of red energy fly off of his hands in a streak. | ||

While in Valor Form, Sora moves at twice his normal speed{{fact}}, and | Valor Form is a powerful damage-dealer, and is very useful against single targets, such as tough enemies and bosses. While in Valor Form, Sora moves at twice his normal speed{{fact}}, and becomes able to perform finishers at any time using the "Omega Finale" attack. His rapid slashes can [[block]] enemy attacks, and can sometimes stun the enemies as well. However, Sora also becomes unable to cast any Magic, including [[Cure]], so equip [[Potions]] and set [[Donald]]'s behavior to healing-focused whenever Sora uses Valor Form. The lack of Magic, coupled with an inability to Guard, makes Valor Form the weakest Form defense-wise. As such, it is best to take advantage of the increased movement speed and jump height to evade attacks while looking for openings, then quickly moving in to deal damage. | ||
Since Valor Form levels by dealing hits, and not by defeating enemies, try to keep enemies alive while training Valor Form. The best Keyblades for training Valor Form are the [[Sweet Memories]] and [[Oathkeeper]]; the [[Star Seeker]] and its [[Air Combo Plus]] are a good substitute for the Oathkeeper if it is unavailable. The [[Morning Star]] and [[Crimson Jazz]] [[Heartless]], which appear together at [[Hollow Bastion]] and [[Beast's Castle]], are the best enemies to train against, as they have high stamina, but are also easy to disrupt with Valor Form's attacks and drop a large amount of [[Drive Orb]]s when defeated. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', both [[Mushroom XIII No. 5]] and [[Mushroom XIII No. 11]] allow Sora to deal a large amount of hits while being close to a [[save point]], allowing him to quickly refill his Drive Gauge. If defeated, they will also drop some [[Drive Recovery]] items. | Since Valor Form levels by dealing hits, and not by defeating enemies, try to keep enemies alive while training Valor Form.
