Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts II, Retaliating Slash is an action ability that costs 3 AP to equip, while Retaliating Smash is an action ability that is automatically equipped. It is used by pressing 
after being knocked into the air. Sora will immediately upright himself in midair by unleashing a forward-moving string of three slashes, the first of which comes out the same frame the move is inputted, making Retaliating Slash one of the fastest attacks available to him. However, contrasting the defense-focused Aerial Recovery, using it will not grant Sora invincibility when recovering, leaving him potentially very vulnerable. Also, as a recovery-type action, it will remove the effects of abilities such as Second Chance and Once More on activation, possibly leading to a Game Over if the ability is not used wisely.
When executed in Valor Form or Wisdom Form, Sora will simply perform the basic aerial attack of the respective forms.
