==Abilities==
==Strategy==
Phantom's main ability is the fact that he's completely invulnerable when his heart is not showing. This can make it hard to deal damage to him quick enough to prevent him from activating his second power.
Before this battle, ensure Goofy is in your party with the MP Gift ability equipped. Equip Sora with MP boosting equipment, and plenty of [[Ether|Ethers]] and [[Elixir|Elixirs]]  to ensure a plentiful MP supply. All party members should also have the abilities [[MP Rage]] and [[MP Haste]] equipped to increase MP gain.


Phantom will occasionally start the hands on the Clock Tower, and will start a 'Countdown Curse'.  As the curse cannot be lifted, Sora's allies will be eliminated from the battle, one by one, ending finally with Sora.  This process can be slowed simply by casting "Stop" on the clock hands. Party members killed in this way can't be healed or revived.
The Phantom will only sustain damage when the glowing orb beneath it is visible. Even then, you will only be able to damage it in a specific way, determined by the colour of the orb:
*'''White color''' - Perform a physical attack
*'''Red color''' - Cast [[Fire]]
*'''Blue color''' - Cast [[Blizzard]]
*'''Yellow color''' - Cast [[Thunder]]
Each time the orb is hit, it will change colour. Once struck three times, it will disappear.


Phantom can also use a second curse, by which he summons a small ball of energy which spirals after Sora, dealing damage on up to five separate occasions. This spell can be avoided, however, by hiding around a corner of the Clock Tower, or it can be neutralized by casting Aeroga on Sora.
Phantom will occasionally start the hands on the Clock Tower, and will start a 'Countdown Curse'.  As the curse cannot be lifted, Sora's allies will be eliminated from the battle, one by one, ending finally with Sora. Whenever the hands of the clock tower move forward five minutes, the number will drop by one. Casting Stop on the hands of the clock will prevent it from moving for one minute ''real time''. Any character eliminated by this attack cannot re-enter the battle.


Phantom can also preform a short-range, very damaging slashing combo with his claws, however this is not as dangerous as his other attack.
Occasionally, the Phantom will fire an energy ball at Sora. If hit by this, he will sustain damage up to five times. This can be avoided by flying around to Clock Tower, or with Aeroga.

Phantom can also perform a short-range, high damage slashing combo with his claws, though this is not as dangerous as his other attacks.
Phantom's weakness is his heart. He guards it fiercely, only revealing it every now and then. Once his heart is exposed, it will be one of four colors. Depending on the color, a specific attack must target it:

Journal Entry

Ghostlike Heartless who haunted the clock tower standing far away from Neverland. Fluttering his eerie cloak, he cast a spell to take Sora's heart. Having no physical body, regular attacks were useless, but in the end Sora and company discovered his weakness and prevailed.

Strategy

Before this battle, ensure Goofy is in your party with the MP Gift ability equipped. Equip Sora with MP boosting equipment, and plenty of Ethers and Elixirs to ensure a plentiful MP supply. All party members should also have the abilities MP Rage and MP Haste equipped to increase MP gain.

The Phantom will only sustain damage when the glowing orb beneath it is visible. Even then, you will only be able to damage it in a specific way, determined by the colour of the orb:

  • White color - Perform a physical attack
  • Red color - Cast Fire
  • Blue color - Cast Blizzard
  • Yellow color - Cast Thunder

Each time the orb is hit, it will change colour. Once struck three times, it will disappear.

Phantom will occasionally start the hands on the Clock Tower, and will start a 'Countdown Curse'. As the curse cannot be lifted, Sora's allies will be eliminated from the battle, one by one, ending finally with Sora. Whenever the hands of the clock tower move forward five minutes, the number will drop by one. Casting Stop on the hands of the clock will prevent it from moving for one minute real time. Any character eliminated by this attack cannot re-enter the battle.

Occasionally, the Phantom will fire an energy ball at Sora. If hit by this, he will sustain damage up to five times. This can be avoided by flying around to Clock Tower, or with Aeroga.

Phantom can also perform a short-range, high damage slashing combo with his claws, though this is not as dangerous as his other attacks.

Following your victory, your Stop magic will be upgraded.
