Gigas Shadows only appear after three waves of Shadows have been defeated in the [[Bizarre Room]]. They attack the same way normal Shadows do, but they do not become flat and move along floors. They are large and have much more HP than other Heartless in the area. They can quickly surround and swipe at Sora, but this can be avoided by moving into a corner on an elevated surface where only a few Gigas Shadows can attack at once. If a Gigas Shadow manages to strike Sora, even just once, it will escape the fight, reducing the odds of winning a [[Fury Stone]].

Using [[Dumbo]] will prevent the Gigas Shadows from escaping, though he does little damage. [[Aeroga]] and the slightly less effective [[Aerora]] can also be used to deflect oncoming attacks. Long-range techniques, like [[Blizzaga]] and [[Strike Raid]], can deal damage while keeping Sora away from the Gigas Shadows. Alternately, cast [[Stopga]] to freeze the Gigas Shadows and attack them with Sonic Blade or Strike Raid.

Gigas Shadows are relatively easy to defeat. They are only capable of a claw attack, a jump attack, and becoming flat and moving along the floor. Blocking a claw attack will do nothing but [[block]]ing a jump attack will [[stun]] them temporarily, giving [[Roxas]] time to do a combo. Repeat this enough times and the Heartless will fall easily.
