Scan (ライブラ Raibura, lit. "Libra") is an ability introduced in Kingdom Hearts. It allows the user to view a targeted enemy's HP or to find an enemy's weakness to power up their attacks.
Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts, Scan is a support ability that costs 1 AP to equip.
In Kingdom Hearts II, Scan is a support ability that costs 2 AP to equip.
In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Scan is an ability panel.
In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Scan is a support ability that can be equipped once.
In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Scan is a Bonus Booster ability. Unlike other Bonus Booster abilities, Scan cannot be toggled off and on once activated. It is also used to detect the backdoors that lead to System Sectors. Scan can be leveled up from Scan Lv.1 to Scan Lv.2, Scan Lv.3 and Scan Lv.4. With each upgrade of the ability, Scan's backdoor sensor becomes more powerful, indicated by the starting color of the sensor changing from blue to light blue, green, and yellow, and previously inaccessible backdoors are revealed.
In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Scan is a support ability that can be equipped once. Scan is also an attack command that has no element and does not deal damage. It changes the element of Feather Shuriken and Flaw Dive to match the enemy's weakness and adds a corresponding status effect. It also increases the number of hits dealt by Feather Shuriken.
