'''[[Hercules]]''' is a boss who can be fought in the [[Hercules Cup]] of [[Olympus Coliseum]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''. For this battle, [[Sora]] asks Hercules to fight him one-on-one, in a friendly competition. Although Hercules appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', he only appears as an enemy in the first and third installments of the series, in order of release.
 
After defeating Hercules once during the Hercules Cup, you will gain 100 EXP from then on for defeating him.

===''Kingdom Hearts''===
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
In all modes, Sora battles Hercules one-on-one. Hercules spends most of the battle covered in a golden aura, which makes him invincible. Barrels will frequently spawn in the arena; Hercules will lose his aura if struck by a barrel. The best time to throw a barrel at him is when he pauses to taunt; while it isn't necessary to wait for him to stop, it is more likely to hit him when he does. Sora should throw the barrel at close-range to attack him directly afterwards. Alternately another good method to deal damage to Hercules is to cast [[Stop]] magic, followed up by a special attack such as [[Ars Arcanum]] or [[Strike Raid]]. Use [[Dodge Roll]] to evade his punches, and jump to safety when he punches the ground to regain his glow.
When Hercules is glowing yellow, he's invincible. Wait until he stops moving, then pick up a barrel and toss it at him. The barrel removes the yellow glow, making him vulnerable. It isn't necessary to wait for him to stop, but one is more likely to hit him when he does. Make sure to throw the barrel at close-range so that Sora can unleash a combo of attacks on him directly afterwards. Alternately another good method to deal damage to Hercules is to cast [[Stop]] magic, followed up by a special attack such as [[Ars Arcanum]] or [[Strike Raid]]. Use [[Dodge Roll]] to evade his punches, and jump to safety when he punches the ground to regain his glow.


When Hercules is back on his feet, watch out for his counterattacks. Note that almost all the time, when he is made vulnerable by a barrel, he counters with a punch. Evade it, and then hit him. Occasionally, when Sora throws a barrel at him, he will be stunned. Take advantage and land a few blows on him. Use [[Glide]] to float around and dodge his charging attack, or use Guard to stop him and leave him vulnerable. Periodically, Hercules will do a spinning tornado attack, which destroys all barrels on the field, which will reappear seconds later. After Hercules finishes his attack, he'll get dizzy and if he isn't glowing, vulnerable to attacks.

If he isn't glowing when he uses these attacks, Sora can stop him by counterattacking, however, it would probably be wiser to wait for him to stop moving, and then repeat the strategy all over again. After defeating Hercules once during the Hercules Cup, Sora will gain 100 EXP from then on for defeating him.

Hercules uses almost the same moves from ''Kingdom Hearts'' (except for the spinning tornado attack), and this time there is no yellow glow around his body, making him open to attacks. The only time a yellow glow is seen is when he is about to charge up for a powerful punch.

Evade the attacks he makes—use [[Dodge Roll]] and [[Glide]] as best as possible, and do not be shy about using physical attacks. [[Reflect]] magic works very well for almost every attack he does. It is also possible to block an attack with [[Guard]], then use [[Counterguard]] (if available).

Hercules is unarguably a much easier opponent than in ''Kingdom Hearts'', and constant attacking should enable an quick victory.
