Mega Flare
Mega Flare (メガフレア Mega Furea) is a technique that appears in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, and Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. Once used, the caster fires a fireball that creates a blinding, screen-distorting explosion that heavily damages all enemies on-screen, dealing Fire-type damage.
In the international and Final Mix releases of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, the power of Mega Flare was reduced from the original Japanese release for the purpose of balancing combat.
