The '''Struggle Bats''' are weapons which appear in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''. They are the defining weapon of the [[Struggle]], used by its participants as well as by [[Roxas]] as he explores [[Twilight Town]] during his vacations.

The '''Struggle Bats''' are weapons which appear in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''. They are the defining weapon of the [[Struggle]], used by its participants as well as by [[Roxas]] during his time in [[The Other Twilight Town]].


Immediately before Roxas's first Struggle battle in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', he is given the chance to choose between three different styles of Struggle Bat, in a manner similar to his and Sora's choice between the [[Dream Sword]], [[Dream Shield|Shield]], and [[Dream Rod|Rod]] within their [[Dive to the Heart]]. Rather than determining the path of growth that Roxas will take, choosing between them will only grant Roxas an immediate stat boost in one category. Choosing the sword grants Roxas +1 to {{STR}}, the hammer +1 to {{DEF}}, and the wand +1 to {{MAG}}.
==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===
On Day 118, Roxas goes on vacation at Twilight Town, and is invited to participate at [[Grandstander]], using a Struggle Sword to do so.


The Struggle Sword is the standard Struggle Bat used by Roxas's and Sora's Struggle opponents, as well as by Roxas when he takes a vacation at Twilight Town in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''.
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
On his first day in The Other Twilight Town, Roxas is given the chance to choose one of three different styles of Struggle Bat prior to his first fight with [[Seifer]], in a manner similar to his and [[Sora]]'s choice between the [[Dream Sword]], [[Dream Shield|Shield]], and [[Dream Rod|Rod]] within their [[Dive to the Heart]]. Rather than determining the path of growth that Roxas will take, choosing a weapon will only grant Roxas an immediate stat boost in one category: choosing the sword grants Roxas +1 to {{STR}}, the hammer +1 to {{DEF}}, and the wand +1 to {{MAG}}. His choice becomes his primary weapon during his time in The Other Twilight Town.
 
During the Struggle tournament on his fourth day, Roxas always wields a Struggle Sword regardless of his earlier choice, while all of his opponents also wield Struggle Swords.
 
On his fifth day, Roxas investigates the [[Seven Wonders]] and fights a [[Shadow Roxas]], who always wields a shadow Struggle Sword regardless of Roxas's choice of weapon.
 
During Sora's visit to Twilight Town, he can also participate in the Struggle, wielding a Struggle Sword.

The Struggle Sword's combos in ''358/2 Days'' are designed to facilitate Grandstander. Its ground combo is an upward swing to the left, then a one-handed upward swing to the right before finishing with a jumping blow. Its aerial combo is two upward swings to the left before finishing with a clockwise spin.
