Cave of Wonders Guardian

The Cave of Wonders Guardian appears in Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II as an entrance into the Cave of Wonders.

In Kingdom Hearts, Sora, Aladdin, Donald, and Goofy fight it after it was taken over by the Heartless and tries to destroy them. Once they destroy the dark power's source, which is located in his eyes, the guardian returns to being an entrance to the Cave of Wonders, and continues to be so throughout the series.



Strategy
First, the Cave of Wonders will emit lasers from its eyes. It can either be reflected (particularly using Guard), or simply avoided. To attack the Cave of Wonders, you need to climb up its side, and then strike it. You do not want to be down where Donald and Goofy are, as the Cave of Wonders will be shooting lasers, exhaling fire and summoning heartless in the process. If you do not find it easy to climb up the side of the Cave of Wonders, then wait until it dives its head down into the ground. Once this happens, climb up the back of its head. Should you run low on health, you can kill some of the nearby Heartless for some HP Balls. Or you can go around to the back of the head and try and jump on its back then run up to the head and attack(this could take some time). or if you are good with magic, stand back and lock onto the eyes, using the fire spell from a distance. If you look closely before you defeat him, his eyes are filled with darkness.

Kingdom Hearts II
Sora, Donald and Goofy arrive in Agrabah and realize that the peddler has received Jafar's Lamp. They are then forced to visit the Cave of Wonders on a treasure hunt in order to get the lamp back. After battling several heartless in a room filled with treasure Sora and co are able to bring the treasure to The Peddler.
