[[Sora's Heartless]] transforms into a form that strongly resembles Anti-Sora after [[Data-Sora]] defeats its Neo-Darkside form. It also gains the power to duplicate itself. Using [[Drag 'n' Drop]] can turn this form into a [[Shadow]], rendering it vulnerable. This form is eventually defeated by Data-Sora before it transforms.

Story

Kingdom Hearts

Sora and his friends encounter Riku on Captain Hook's ship, where he reveals that he now has control over the Heartless. To prove it, he creates a Heartless replica of Sora before their eyes, and it throws them into the ship's brig. As Sora fights his way back to the ship's deck, he encounters many of these "Shadow Soras", which only he can defeat. However, they have no weapons and often vanish before he can even attack them. Once Sora reaches the Captain's Cabin, Riku creates a more complete replica of Sora, this one able to wield a shadowy Kingdom Key. After being defeated, it fades back into darkness.
