Poison Plant

The Poison Plant (ポイズンプラント) is a Heartless Boss exclusive to Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Similar to the Creeper Plant, it appeared before Roxas in the Underground Concourse in Twilight Town. Xion aids Roxas in this battle, using Magic rather than a Keyblade. The Poison Plant is in the same family of Heartless as the Fire Plant, Creeper Plant, and Blizzard Plant. Poison Plant is fought on Days 23, 51, 76, 95, 151, and 353.

Strategy
At the start of the battle, the Poison Plant fires a ball of poison in your direction. Try jumping to dodge it, and then use Lock-On. You may then begin to hammer the stationary boss with the Keyblade. Use caution, as the boss soon begins to slam its head against the ground to deal damage. Get away from the Poison Plant and use the. The Fire Spell will also burn the Heartless Boss, dealing extra damage for a few seconds after the initial hit. Do not worry though, if you do not do this, as Xion often uses Fire Magic on her own.

Bring as many healing items as possible into this battle, and remember to dodge. You do not have Limit Breaks yet, so take advantage of the Fire Spell and your Keyblade.
