Reports on this figure have existed for some time now. It was assumed this was the man who defeated Xion, but the truth of the matter remains unclear.

Xion is fought as a boss in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts III. In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days she is fought multiple times throughout the game before finally serving as the penultimate boss.

In Kingdom Hearts III, she and Saïx team up with each other at the Keyblade Graveyard to fight Sora, Kairi, and Lea. A data replica of her is also an optional boss in Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind.

Story

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

In Mission 75, Roxas is sent to Twilight Town. Xion has left the Organization and is mistaken for the Organization impostor, Riku. Roxas has to track her down and "eliminate" her. Roxas attacks the impostor, but is stunned to realize he is fighting Xion.

She attacks Roxas in Mission 92, which takes place throughout various locations in worlds visited during the events of the game. Using the Organization XIII Devices, Xion is able to absorb Sora's memories from each world in order to replicate his abilities, and to some extent other elements of those worlds. For example, in Halloween Town, Xion uses Sora's Ragnarok and uses a weapon resembling the Chimera arm or The Experiment's arm, while in Agrabah, she uses his Ars Arcanum and has arms and swords resembling Kurt Zisa. Strike Raid is the only one of Sora's Kingdom Hearts special abilities that Xion does not use. Interestingly, the first three areas that Xion warps Roxas to are the locations of that worlds' respective Keyholes. In the case of Twilight Town, the Station Plaza is where Sora opens the world Gate.

Design

During Roxas's battle with Xion, she dons armor which changes a number of times throughout the fight. Her basic form is a bizarrely-shaped, predominantly silver and black suit, with dull red armor near her waist, gold on her boots, and orange armored gloves. Xion's helmet sports two black spikes that jut out horizontally on either side, and a large, red Nobody symbol on the faceplate, part of which forms something of a horn on the top of the helmet. This form is based on Sora's original appearance, with Sora's jacket, pants, and necklace, although Xion's pants are pink and have designs, and her necklace features a Nobody symbol instead of a crown.

In her first form, Xion sports large, skeletal, colorful wings and a huge, orange and red, intricately-shaped sword. In her second form, Xion loses her wings and grows to twice the size of Roxas, exchanging her sword for a large, pincer-like weapon vaguely resembling one of the Chimera's arms. In her third form, Xion transforms into a figure with four huge arms, decorated with elegant gold, purple and red designs. She has large blades instead of hands, and her arms resemble Kurt Zisa's arms. Her main body is slightly larger than normal in this form.

In her final transformation, Xion grows to a titanic size, about the same height as the Train Station tower in Twilight Town. Her armor is now embroidered with numerous spikes and ribbons, and she gains two pink and silver, Keyblade-like weapons with teeth in the shape of the Nobody symbol. Interestingly, this form has a similar design to Sora's appearance in Kingdom Hearts II, now being mainly black and dark grey.

Strategy

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

Mission 75

Roxas may get stuck fighting the many Heartless in this mission during the search for Xion. Moving further into the Tram Common, Roxas sees Xion on top of a building, and she runs away. Xion does not attack, but only runs and dodge rolls, and teleports to another place in the area after taking several hits. The system for when this mission ends is unclear, as the timing for Xion to go to the secluded area is set at random. At the end of the mission, Xion teleports herself to the secluded place, where she waits for Roxas. Once Roxas reaches Xion, the mission ends, following a few cutscenes.

Mission 92

Be prepared for a multi-stage boss battle. During the fight, Xion transports Roxas to four different locations, each time assuming a different form.

Xion's attacks require good timing and careful maneuvering to avoid. Make good use of Dodge Roll and Glide. Equip Cure magic and/or Potions. Attack magic is effective but not essential.

First Form

Technique		Element	Status	Power	Block?
Continuous Slash (連続斬り, Renzoku Kiri) Attack		—	—	0.35 (1st hit) 0.45 (2nd hit) 1.00 (3rd hit)	O
		Xion's basic combo attack. Xion performs an overhead slash, then a forward thrust, then a spinning overhead slash.
Counter Slash (カウンター斬り, Kauntā Kiri) Attack		—	—	1.54	X
		When Roxas parries a combo attack (i.e. using Block), Xion performs an unblockable counterattack. Dodge Xion's attacks instead of Blocking.
Tame Slash (タメ斬り, Tame Kiri, lit. "Stored Slash") Attack		—	—	1.60	X
		Xion charges energy, then performs a rapid forward thrust.
Sonic Blade (ソニックレイヴ, Sonikku Reivu, lit. "Sonic Rave") Attack		—	—	1.29	△
		Xion's aerial attack. Xion enters flight mode by first pushing Roxas away with a nondamaging burst of energy, then floating into the air. Once airborne, she performs Sora's Sonic Blade, attacking with a quick diving thrust. If Sonic Blade connects, Xion repeats the attack until it misses or is parried. Xion returns to the ground after the attack.
Barrier (バリア, Baria) Attack		—	—	1.85	△
		When her HP is low, Xion occasionally attempts to restore her HP. She floats into the air, channels for a couple seconds, then raises a dark barrier, becoming temporarily invulnerable and regaining a substantial amount of HP. Interrupt this ability by attacking Xion before she raises her barrier.
Guard/Block: △ = Can be blocked; O = Can be blocked and interrupted (melee) or deflected back (projectile); X = Cannot be blocked.

The first battle with Xion takes place in the Bizarre Room of Wonderland.

Second Form

Technique		Element	Status	Power	Block?
Continuous Slash (連続斬り, Renzoku Kiri) Attack		—	—	0.54 (1st hit) 0.60 (2nd hit) 1.08 (3rd hit)	O
		Xion's basic combo attack. Xion performs an overhead slash, then an upward diagonal slash, then a forward thrust.
Counter Slash (カウンター斬り, Kauntā Kiri) Attack		—	—	1.60	X
		When Roxas parries a combo attack (i.e. using Block), Xion performs an unblockable counterattack. Dodge Xion's attacks instead of Blocking.
Tame Slash (タメ斬り, Tame Kiri, lit. "Stored Slash") Attack		—	—	1.65	X
		Xion creates a vortex to pull Roxas in, charges energy for a number of seconds, then performs an overhead slash. Escape the vortex by Gliding or Air Sliding. Alternately, Dodge Roll the moment Xion performs her overhead slash.
Ragnarok (ラグナロク, Ragunaroku) Magic		Nil	Null Defense (100%)	0.21	X
		Xion uses Sora's Ragnarok. She floats into the air, charges energy, then fires a salvo of projectiles which home in on Roxas. Avoid this attack by Gliding or running away (with a level 2 Haste equipped) until the projectiles disappear. If Xion performs Ragnarok repeatedly, land one or two attack combos while she is charging, then immediately move away. If dodging proves difficult, consider equipping a ring with Nil resistance such as Nothing to Fear to mitigate Ragnarok's damage. Note that although Nothing to Fear fully nullifies Ragnarok's damage, the missiles still stun Roxas if they connect.
Barrier (バリア, Baria) Attack		—	—	1.90	△
		When her HP is low, Xion occasionally attempts to restore her HP. She floats into the air, channels for a couple seconds, then raises a dark barrier, becoming temporarily invulnerable and regaining a substantial amount of HP. Interrupt this ability by attacking Xion before she raises her barrier.
Guard/Block: △ = Can be blocked; O = Can be blocked and interrupted (melee) or deflected back (projectile); X = Cannot be blocked.

The second battle takes place in Halloween Town, at the Manor Ruins.

Third Form

Technique		Element	Status	Power	Block?
Continuous Slash (連続斬り, Renzoku Kiri) Attack		—	—	0.41 (1st hit) 0.42 (2nd hit) 1.03 (3rd hit)	O
		Xion's basic attack. Xion performs two downward diagonal slashes with her front blades, then a slow overhead slash with all four blades.
Counter Slash (カウンター斬り, Kauntā Kiri) Attack		—	—	1.60	X
		When Roxas parries a combo attack (i.e. using Block), Xion performs an unblockable counterattack. Dodge Xion's attacks instead of Blocking.
Tame Slash (タメ斬り, Tame Kiri, lit. "Stored Slash") Attack		—	—	1.52	X
		Xion creates a vortex to pull Roxas in, charges energy for a number of seconds, then slashes with all four blades.
Ars Arcanum (ラストアルカナム, Rasuto Arukanamu, lit. "Last Arcanum") Attack		—	—	1.33	X
		Xion infuses all four blades with light. She performs two downward slashes, a jumping slash and a downward strike, then a leaping flurry of slashes.
Jump Attack (ジャンプ攻撃, Jampu Kōgeki) Attack		—	—	1.30	△
		Xion leaps into the air, plunging downward with multiple slashes and producing a small shockwave.
Barrier (バリア, Baria) Attack		—	—	1.75	△
		When her HP is low, Xion occasionally attempts to restore her HP. She floats into the air, channels for a couple seconds, then raises a dark barrier, becoming temporarily invulnerable and regaining a substantial amount of HP. Interrupt this ability by attacking Xion before she raises her barrier.
Guard/Block: △ = Can be blocked; O = Can be blocked and interrupted (melee) or deflected back (projectile); X = Cannot be blocked.

Xion's third battle takes place in the Lamp Chamber area of Agrabah. In this form, Xion is more graceful and agile, performing flips and spins that make her difficult to hit. Xion's third form is difficult to dodge due to limited dodging room combined with Xion's agility and long reach. Land combos immediately after she stops attacking, and move away before she resumes.

Final Form

Technique		Element	Status	Power	Block?
Continuous Slash (連続斬り, Renzoku Kiri) Attack		—	Random (100%)	1.05	△
		Xion's basic attack. Xion performs a slash with each of her blades, then a slash with both blades. Executed after Xion raises one blade.
Continuous Rush (連続なぎ払い, Renzoku Nagiharai) Attack		—	—	0.90	△
		Xion slashes four times. Each slash creates a shockwave of blue energy. Executed after Xion raises one blade.
Laser (レーザー, Rēzā) Attack		—	—	1.69	△
		Xion fires blasts of light from her shoulder tendrils. Executed after Xion crosses her blades.
Gravity (グラビデ, Gurabide) Attack		Earth	Halve HP (100%)	1.00	△
		Xion creates an orb of darkness near her. Executed after Xion crosses her blades.
Laser Rain (レーザーレイン, Rēzā Rein) Attack		—	—	1.34	X
		Telegraphed by Laser, used once Xion's HP is low. Xion creates a vortex, puts her Keyblades together, and fires a blast of light into the air, causing pillars of light to rain down randomly across the battlefield (Laser Rain is based on dual-wielding Roxas's limit break: Magic Hour). Avoid by Gliding as close to Xion as possible, where the attacks are less likely to hit.
Final Break (ファイナルブレイク, Fainaru Bureiku) Magic		Nil	Null Defense (100%)	0.06	X
		Telegraphed by Gravity, used once Xion's HP is low. Xion creates a massive pillar of light which engulfs most of the battlefield. Glide against the corners to the east or west of Xion. (Final Limit is based on Trinity Limit.) Alternately, equip Nil resistance to mitigate or prevent damage.
Guard/Block: △ = Can be blocked; O = Can be blocked and interrupted (melee) or deflected back (projectile); X = Cannot be blocked.

The final battle with Xion takes place in front of the Train Station in Twilight Town. She becomes massive, but remains stationary at one end of the battlefield throughout the fight. In this form, Xion loses both Counter Slash and Barrier, and her regular attacks are slow and telegraphed. However, her attacks can inflict status effects.

Kingdom Hearts III

Xion is fought at the Keyblade Graveyard alongside Saïx. Sora has Kairi and Lea as allies. Throughout the fight, Xion alternates between wielding her Replica Kingdom Key and copying Saïx's berserk state.

Xion's battle skills have effectively increased due to her possessing a fragment of Xehanort's heart. Xion will often teleport occasionally to Sora or Kairi's position. Once she reaches her target, she will use multiple Keyblade thrusts to send Sora flying into the air, ending her combo with her slamming them down with her Replica Claymore. She will also occasionally enter a berserk state like Saïx's but the attack can be blocked by locking onto her. The fight automatically ends once Saïx's berserk gauge is full.

Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind

Xion's data is a secret boss in Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind. Her battle is significantly made harder.

Xion retains a few attacks from her battle at the Keyblade Graveyard, such as Strike Raid, her basic combo, and her rushing combo. However, she now has more attacks at her disposal. Like Roxas, Xion often teleports in streaks of light and summons light beams to attack. Her blue light beams, can temporarily reduce Sora's maximum health, up to 1 HP, if they connect. She also has golden light beams, which do not have the same effect; she often telegraphs this by saying, "Let it rain!" Occasionally, she will shroud herself with a yellow aura, signified by her saying, "Now you'll see!" or "Time to end this!" and her health being replaced with armor. From there, she enters a berserk state, where she furiously begins leaping around the arena and slamming her Keyblade down at Sora. After five slams, Xion is vulnerable for punishment.

For her ultimate attack, Xion teleports outside the arena's boundaries and bathes the arena in golden light. She starts implementing more yellow beams while retaining her berserk state. This berserk state ends after a few minutes, or if Xion's armor is broken. When the arena returns to normal, Xion will appear vulnerable after a few seconds.

Unlike the other data battles, Xion is particularly hard due to her relentless nature. Understanding her patterns is even more crucial than in past battles to defeat her.

Trivia

• During the battle against Xion: First Form, Roxas has been shrunk down despite not drinking the potion, and grows back to normal size when he is transported to the next stage without drinking the potion. Xion also changes sizes in the same way without explanation.
• "Vector to the Heavens", the music that plays during Xion's final form, is a mix of Kairi's Theme, Musique pour la tristesse de Xion, and Dearly Beloved.
• During Mission Mode, while battling Xion, she will not speak, due to some of her battle quotes being about Roxas.
