'''Dodge Roll''' is an [[ability]] [[Sora]] can use in [[Kingdom Hearts (game)|''Kingdom Hearts'']], ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories|Re:Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', it is learned and leveled up by leveling up [[Limit Form]], while in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', it takes the form of an [[Panel System#Ability Panel|ability panel]] that can be leveled up from '''Dodge Roll LV1''' to '''Dodge Roll LV2''' and '''Dodge Roll LV3''' by linking '''Dodge Roll LV+''' panels. Leveling up increases the distance covered by the roll. It also takes the form of a [[Reaction Command]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.

{{nihongo|'''Dodge Roll'''|ドッジロール|Dojji Rōru}} is a technique introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It allows the user to dodge attacks with a forward roll, during which they are invulnerable to enemy attacks. Leveling up increases the distance covered by the roll.


==Mechanics==
"Dodge Roll", as its name implies, is a short leap forward used to dodge attacks. While dodge rolling, Sora is invulnerable to enemy attacks, making it an invaluable ability for escaping dangerous situations in battle. In ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'' and ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' it is triggered by pressing {{button|s}}. In ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'' tapping a direction in the control pad twice triggers it during battle. In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' it is triggered by pressing Y and a direction on the control pad.

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Dodge Roll is a [[combat ability]] used by [[Sora]]. It is executed by pressing {{button|s}} and pushing {{button|lana}} in any direction, though {{button|s}} can be tapped without a direction if [[Guard]] is not equipped. It costs 1 {{AP}} to equip.


In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', Dodge Roll is an innate movement ability that is executed by double-tapping the control pad in a direction during battle. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]'', it is executed by pressing {{button|s}} and can also be used outside of battle.
Dodge Roll also has a minor reference in the [[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (manga)|''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'' manga]]. Sora breaks the fourth wall be mentioning that the ability is different from its incarnation in ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', Dodge Roll<ref>Known as {{nihongo|'''Dodge Roll'''|スイッチロール|Suichi Rōru|lit. "Switch Roll"}} in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''.</ref> is a [[Reaction Command]].
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', Dodge Roll is also a [[growth ability]] that costs 3 {{AP}} to equip. It allows Sora to perform a combat roll by pressing {{button|s}}. Leveling it up increases the distance of the roll. If [[Guard]] is equipped, Dodge Roll can only be executed by also tilting {{button|lana}}, and if [[Quick Run]] is equipped, it can only be executed by quickly tapping {{button|s}}.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', Dodge Roll is an [[ability panel]] that can be leveled up from '''Dodge Roll LV1''' to '''Dodge Roll LV2''' and '''Dodge Roll LV3''' by linking {{nihongo|'''Dodge Roll LV+ Ⓛ'''|ドッジアップⓁ|Dojji Appu Ⓛ|lit. "Dodge Up Ⓛ"}} panels, increasing invincibility time, rolling distance, and speed. Higher levels can also push enemies out of the character's path while rolling. It is triggered by pressing {{button|dsy}} and a direction on the control pad.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', Dodge Roll is a {{c|movement command|BBS}} exclusive to [[Ventus]]. It is activated by pressing {{button|s}} and a direction on {{button|lana}}, though {{button|s}} can be tapped without a direction if a [[Block]]-type command is not equipped. It has a maximum level of 4.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]'', Dodge Roll is a [[Bonus Booster]] ability that can be leveled up from '''Dodge Roll Lv.1''' to '''Dodge Roll Lv.2'''. It is triggered by pressing {{button|dsy}} and holding a direction on the control pad, though {{button|dsy}} can be tapped without a direction if a [[Block]]-type command is not equipped.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', Dodge Roll is a {{c|movement command|DDD}} that is triggered by moving {{button|3dsana}} and pressing {{button|dsy}} ({{button|s}} in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD]]''), though the button can be tapped without a direction if a [[Block]]-type command is not equipped. It can be used to initiate [[Flowmotion]]. Sora's version is identical to previous games, while Riku's is similar to his [[High-Speed Step]] in ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories''.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Dodge Roll is a [[mobility ability]] activated by pressing {{button|square}}/{{button|dsx}} while moving.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory]]'', some characters may execute a Dodge Roll to evade the cinematic attack after a Dark Zone in a boss battle. Depending on the player's performance in the Dark Zone, it may fail to activate, causing the player to take damage.
