The Y-Combo is an alternate combo used in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.

Mechanics

For some weapons, the player may be prompted to press during its combo. This will make the player switch to a different combo that is usually quicker and more powerful. The player must press every time it is prompted, or else the combo will end. Each weapon has a different Y-Combo, some with none at all.
