Strategy

First Battle

As you might exspect when you first face Data-Riku he is at his easyest and gets harder after he is beaten. His first move is a forward thrust so a simple dodge roll is in order to avoid it. After that he is pritty easy he only has a small selection of moves which he doesn't use in quick successtion. He has a dark sheild much like Riku in 358/2 Days which also reacts the same way if you try to attack him with it in play. You can ether use this time to recover your life during the time his sheild is up or you can walk behind and attack him. He should go don't quite easly.

Second Battle

Riku now adds two new moves to the battle. He can teleport around the arena, and he can stab the ground. This sends several types of Bug Blox outwards to damage you. Use the same strategy as before, blocking then attacking. If he teleports into the middle of the air, quickly Dodge Roll away, or try and jump over the Blox, but this requires great timing.

Third Battle

It seems Riku gains a new power every round. Great confidence booster. But don't fret as this is the last battle. Rikus new move is a Sonic Blade-like attack,, where he dashes from wall to wall in a great ball of Dark Energy. Repeated Dodge Rolling should work. Once again, the block-attack strategy should still work. When he gets into his last bar of health, you shouldn't worry about Blocking anymore, as any of his attacks could be fatal. Just go absolutely nuts on him, attacking any chance you get, and healing when necessary.
