Journal Entry
Kingdom Hearts
Heartless called by Jafar to stop Aladdin. Its long body is composed of a number of Pot Spiders linked together. Even if its body comes apart, it can regenerate itself by gathering other pots.
Story
Kingdom Hearts
The Pot Centipede is fought in Agrabah. Jafar has captured Jasmine and, as he escapes with her to the Cave of Wonders, he summons the head and rear of the Pot Centipede. The two parts are immobile without Pot Spiders. Once they attach, it can move. The Spiders are positioned as legs between the head and the rear. Its rear antennae are electrical and can zap Sora.
Strategy
Your main targets in this battle are the head and tail of the Centipede. However, before you take on the actual boss, it would be wise to dispatch all the Pot Spiders first. Attack the Pot Spiders that comprise the Centipede's body, and use triangle to send the two other party members into the fray. As the Pot Spiders are destroyed, more will appear to take their place until none are left. At this point, the head and tail will rampage through the streets of Agrabah, knocking down the piles of crates. More Pot Spiders will appear and reform the body. Destroy these as well, and pick up the HP Orbs they drop. The only threat here is the whipping attack of the tail, and electrical whipping of the head's antennae. However, since you will be focusing on the body, this shouldn't be too much of a problem. Just be mindful of how close you are to the head and tail, and don't get complacent. The Pot Centipede may not have a large range of attacks, but they are brutal.
Eventually, no more Pot Spiders will appear, and this is your cue to attack the main enemy. Send the two others to take on the head of the centipede while Sora takes on the tail. The constituents will continue to use the techniques listed above, but no longer have the mobility they once did. This enables you to make a quick escape if necessary to recover.
Trivia
- Unlike other Heartless bosses, the Pot Centipede is not shown to release a heart upon its defeat.
