Strike Raid, called Strike Judgment in Kingdom Hearts II, is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts. It is a ranged attack that allows the user to hurl the Keyblade at enemies.
Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts, Strike Raid is a Special Ability that Sora can use while on the ground against a target at long range. It lets Sora throw the Keyblade up to five times, summoning the Keyblade back to his hand after each toss. Sora is invulnerable during the technique, and the Keyblade will immediately return to Sora's hand if it hits an obstacle, causing recoil. Selecting the Strike (ストライク Sutoraiku) command from the last command bar executes the initial attack, an additional three attacks can be added by selecting the Raid (レイド Reido) command each time it becomes available, and the final, more powerful finishing strike is executed by selecting the Judgment (ジャッジメント Jajjimento) command when it appears. In the Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX release of Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, the initial Strike command, the Raid followups, and the Judgment finisher are all implemented as Reaction Commands. Strike Raid costs 3 AP to equip and 2 MP to use (3 MP in the original Japanese version).
In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Strike Raid is an attack sleight. It allows the user to throw the Keyblade once, with it returning like a boomerang. The attack damages and stuns enemies on impact.
In Kingdom Hearts II, Strike Judgment is a limit exclusive to Genie. The limit begins with Strike, where Genie shoots a stream of magic bullets at a single target. Afterwards, Judgment causes Sora to spin Genie in a circle as Genie shoots more magic bullets from his fingers towards all surrounding enemies, knocking them closer to Sora.
In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Strike Raid is also an action ability exclusive to Limit Form. It is a limit that is equipped by default and costs 65 MP to use. It is automatically assigned to 
in the shortcuts menu. On activation, Sora performs the first throw attack, and up to three more throws can be executed through the Raid Reaction Command. Afterwards, the Reaction Command is replaced with Judgment to perform the final, more powerful throw. Each time it is thrown, the Keyblade has strong homing capabilities, making Strike Raid's attacks connect more reliably than its iteration in Kingdom Hearts.
In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Strike Raid is a Basic attack command available to Terra, Ventus, and Aqua that lets the user hurl the Keyblade once, with it returning like a boomerang. If used in midair, they will return to the ground before throwing the Keyblade. The attack damages and stuns enemies on impact. It takes up one slot in the Command Deck, has a maximum level of 3, has a normal reload time of 10 seconds, and fills the Command Gauge by 20%.
In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Strike Raid is an attack command that has a normal memory consumption of 15% and a reload time of 15 seconds. It lets Data-Sora hurl the Keyblade once, with it returning like a boomerang. If used in midair, he will return to the ground before throwing the Keyblade.
In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Strike Raid is an attack command that takes up one slot in the Command Deck and has a reload time of 24 seconds. It lets the user hurl the Keyblade at the enemy, after which it loops around to hit multiple times and potentially attack other enemies. It has a 50% chance of stunning enemies. It grants +1 to Defense when attached to a Dream Eater recipe. This version of Strike Raid can be initiated in midair.
In Kingdom Hearts Union χ, Strike Raid is a special attack that targets all enemies and costs 3 special attack gauges to use. It inflicts more damage to poisoned targets.
