Stitch, one of the Summonable characters from Kingdom Hearts II.
A Summon is a special character that can be magically called on to aid Sora in the Kingdom Hearts series. They have been present in all released games so far, although the mechanics of using them differ from game to game.
In the series, all summons have been Disney characters, with the exception of Cloud in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories.
Game Differences
Kingdom Hearts
In the original Kingdom Hearts, most of the summons are obtained by finding special gems in various Worlds. The gems can then be given to the Fairy Godmother, staying at Merlin's House in Traverse Town; she uses her magic to restore their spirit and release their power, thus making the summon avaliable. All of these summons are victims of the Heartless' quest to destroy the Worlds. As explained by the Fairy Godmother, the summoning gems are the crystallized forms of strong, good-hearted denizens that did not fall victim to the darkness during the destruction of their worlds, and so are able to be called into battle for a limited time.
Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
In Chain of Memories there are Magic Cards that Sora obtains during his ascend in Castle Oblivion. Some Magic Cards enable you to perform summons. These cards are created from Sora's memories, so the summons are the same ones from Kingdom Hearts, with the addition of Cloud.
Kingdom Hearts II
In Kingdom Hearts II, summons come from special charms found scattered throughout the worlds, which Sora can immediately use without having to unlock them. The charms from Kingdom Hearts II work differently than the summon gems from Kingdom Hearts, while the summon spells on the first game gave a temporary body to the soul contained in the gem, in Kingdom Hearts II the charm actually teleports the summonable character directly from their world.
Summon Mechanics
The Summon menu in Kingdom Hearts is located within the Magic menu during battle. But, in Kingdom Hearts II it was given its own area in the Command Menu, because of the inclusion of a second menu that could be accessed during battle. In addition, Kingdom Hearts II summons no longer require Magic to be summoned; they now use the Drive Gauge to count down their time instead.
