Sora uses Ragnarok in Chain of Memories.

Sleight is the term used to refer to certain three-card combinations in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. They are learned by either Riku or Sora. Sleights may be learned upon level-up, or they may be acquired through story events (as in the case of Trinity Limit). More powerful than single-card attacks, magic, or summons, sleights are often used in boss battles.

Riku's Sleights

Riku does not learn sleights upon reaching a certain level. Rather, he has access to four sleights throughout the entire game, unless Dark Mode has not been activated or he does not have access to a King Mickey Friend Card. As a result, MM Miracle is the only sleight Riku can activate outside of Dark Mode.

Ability Description Requirements
Dark Break During this Sleight, Riku leaps into the air and attacks his enemies from above 6 times. Each time, he lands sword first on an enemy and then leaps into the air again. It hits random enemies. Activated by 3 Soul Eater cards totaling a ranged value of 5-15
Dark Firaga Riku shoots a dark fireball from his hand, which, despite its name, deals non-elemental damage. This means that it cannot be absorbed by Red Nocturne, but also that it doesn't deal extra damage against Blue Rhapsody. Activated by 3 Soul Eater cards totaling a ranged value of 16-25.
Dark Aura Riku flies across the screen several times, damaging every enemy he touches, and at the end stabs his Soul Eater into the ground, causing radial damage to each enemy caught within the range of the attack. Activated by 3 Soul Eater cards totaling 27.
MM Miracle King Mickey appears and pulls out a card, which flashes a bright light that stuns all enemies, heals Riku, and reloads his deck Riku may use this sleight as long as he has access to at least 2 King Mickey cards, which must be placed next to each other in the sleight.

Re-Chain of Memories

In addition to the above sleights, Riku has a new sleight in Kingdom Hearts: re-Chain of Memories. For this sleight, Riku combines a King Mickey card with 2 Soul Eater cards or 2 King Mickey cards with a single Soul Eater card, which allows him to perform a new combo move with King Mickey, where they spin in a circle and attack all the surrounding enemies.
