Mermaid Kick (マーメイドキック Māmeido Kikku) is an ability that appears in Kingdom Hearts. It allows the user to swim faster and more powerfully with a dolphin kick.
Mechanics[edit]
In Kingdom Hearts, Mermaid Kick is a shared ability used by double tapping 
(
in the Japanese versions) or 
, but can also triggered by tapping both buttons in any order. Sora will automatically swim at a bursting distance forwards, and can be extended by holding down either button when triggered.
It is required to swim against the current in the Calm Depths, but it can be used anywhere in Atlantica, or in bodies of water in other worlds to replace Sora's default breaststroke done with with a dolphin kick. It also gives Sora the ability to reach some floating platforms, like the hippos in Deep Jungle's Hippo's Lagoon.
