Deck Commands (デッキコマンド Dekki Komando) are equippable skills that can be used in the field in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. The two main types are Battle Commands (バトルコマンド Batoru Komando), which appear in and can be used from the Command Menu, and Action Commands (アクションコマンド Akushon Komando).
Deck Commands can be equipped from the main menu, under "Command Deck". You can set a command installed in your deck as a "shortcut" by selecting it and pressing 
on the Command Deck menu. You can quickly jump to your shortcut command in combat by pressing left on the Control Pad.
Battle commands
Battle commands, which consist of Attack, Magic, and Item commands, can be used during battle to cause damage to enemies, heal damage, or otherwise affect the tide of battle. Battle commands undergo a period of cooldown after use, which is longer for more powerful commands, with the exception of item commands, which may be used repeatedly but have a limited number of uses.
