In ''Kingdom Hearts'', item synthesis is made available after [[Sora]] gains the [[Trinity Mark|Green Trinity]] in [[Agrabah]], as he needs it to reach the opening in the ceiling of [[Cid]]'s [[Accessory]] Shop that leads to the Moogle's shop.  Twenty-five items are available for creation, and can be made as many times as desired as long as the required materials are available; Ultima Weapon is the only exception as it can be synthesized only once regardless of the availability of the required materials.  A "Mix" will appear beside items that have been successfully created to help keep track of the items that have been made and those that have not. After all the items (all the 25 items) have been synthesized at least once, Sora will officially inherit the title of "Master Synthesist" from one of the three moogles in the workshop (the one in the corner and closest to the entrances to the workshop).

''Kingdom Hearts II'' has synthesis available nearly from the beginning of the game; usually as soon as Sora and his party come across the first Moogle shop in [[Hollow Bastion]], the qualification of collecting five unique materials to open synthesis has been met through gameplay.  Unlike the items for sale in each store, the Moogle shops of other Worlds are linked to each other for synthesis, and so any shop can be used at any time without losing progress from one World to the next.

However, the process of unlocking and creating new items is structured quite differently than it is in the first game.  New items are no longer gained by making a certain number of lesser items, but can instead be obtained through [[Recipe]]s, found throughout the [[World]]s, as well as through a category called ''Free Development''.  By collecting more unique materials and improving the Moogle's ranking, Sora will unlock further items to create.  Having five types of materials will open Free Development and synthesis, while gaining 20 types of items unlocks more items on that list. Also, obtaining a certain number of items enables them to be purchased at the Moogle Shops.

Synthesis is once again available in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' thanks to a [[Organization XIII]]-affiliated Moogle who hangs out in the Grey Area of the [[Castle That Never Was]]. Once [[Roxas]] acquires the Novice Rank on Day 26, following [[Mission 14: Eliminate the Darkside|Mission 14]], the Moogle will be open for business, including synthesis.  In order to create a [[Panel System|Panel]], Roxas must have all the ingredients required, as well as enough [[Munny]] to pay the Moogle to make it for him.
