Sora-Heartless is a major boss in Kingdom Hearts coded, introduced in Episode 7. The Data Sora fights it in five phases, all immediately beginning after the last phase.

Strategy

Phase 1

Sora-Heartless looks like Darkside and fights very similarly, except that every move unleashes a Debug Attack. The left fist uses Blizzard, and the right fist uses Fire. The head launches Slow, the most troublesome of the bunch. Avoid it at all costs, if possible. Focus on dodging attacks and then attack the fists when they are on the ground. You also have to make sure not to fall off the platform while dodging. The first phase of the series of battles is quite harrowing, so don't feel nervous about using a restorative ability or item.

Phase 2

Sora-Heartless is invincible under his shield. Notice that a white, ghostly Keyblade is hovering over the field. This is what you have to hit. If you can't find it, hold still a moment until it comes lunging at you. The target keyblade is different from the ones Sora-Heartless attacks you with, but looks similar. When you successfully attack it, Sora-Heartless will turn into a simple Shadow. Use a simple combo on the Shadow, and the second phase shall be cleared.

Phase 3

In the third phase, several copies of Sora-Heartless appear in the place of a single enemy. Dodge their attacks and wait for white, ghostly Keyblades to appear again. Hit the copies of Sora-Heartless while their shields are down to make them disappear. If you miss your chance, hit their Keyblades until they are open again. Repeat the keyblade-smacking pattern against the last remaining copy of Sora-Heartless.

Phase 4

You'll find yourself facing off against four copies of Sora-Heartless, all with shields up. Whenever you defeat a copy, it will turn into a ghostly Keyblade and keep attacking you, eventually turning back into its original form. Focus your attacks on the real copy of Sora's Heartless. Only bother with the fakes if they get in your way. At long last, Sora's Heartless will turn into a Shadow again.

Phase 5

Sora's Heartless retains its weak Shadow form that you previously battled in the second phase. This battle serves as nothing more than an ending battle, and does not propose any challenge. Simply attack the Shadow a few times to complete the final phase of the battle with Sora's Heartless.
