{{nihongo|'''Aero'''|エアロ|Earo}}, often referred to as '''Wind''', is an element that appears in  ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]''. The Aero element is associated with the [[Gust]] material and the [[Air-toss]] status effect. It is the opposite of [[Thunder (Element)|Thunder]].
{{nihongo|'''Aero'''|エアロ|Earo}}, also called {{nihongo|'''Wind'''|風|Kaze}}, is an element that appears in  ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Dark Road]]''. The Aero element is associated with the [[Gust]] material and the [[Air-toss]] status effect.


While other games in the ''[[Kingdom Hearts (series)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' series include wind-type abilities and attacks, such as [[Aero]] magic and [[Tornado]], the damage they inflict is non-elemental.
While other games in the ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|series}}'' series include wind-type abilities and attacks, such as [[Aero]] magic and [[Tornado]], the damage they inflict is usually {{c|Neutral|element}}.


==Attacks and abilities==
==''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''==
In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', the player character can use attacks that use the Aero element, most prominently [[Aero]] magic. In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', other Aero-element attacks are also available to the player, such as [[Tornado]], [[Aero Raid]], and [[Cyclone]], and the power of Aero attacks and resistance to Aero damage can be raised through equipping [[Stat Chip]]s. Some enemies in ''Re:coded'' can use attacks that inflict Aero damage.
In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', the Wind element has two sides. Party members can use Wind-type attacks to inflict Wind-type damage, which enemies can resist. Enemies can use Wind-type attacks to inflict the [[Air-toss]] status effect, which party members can resist.
 
===Attacks and abilities===
<!--should the following be taken out?-->
====Party members====
In other games in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series, party members and enemies may use attacks and abilities that use wind, including Aero magic and Tornado; however, they do not inflict Aero damage. Some party members can use Aero spells, either fully original moves or variations of Aero magic. In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', it is only available to enemies, particularly [[Xaldin]].

===Weakness and Resistance===
====Party members====
Unlike in other games, Wind Resistance does not reduce the damage from Wind-type attacks, but lowers the chance of being [[Air-toss]]ed. Xaldin has an innate resistance to Wind, while some Ring Panels provide Wind Resistance when equipped.

[[Aero]] magic utilizes wind, but it does not inflict Aero damage aside from Aero magic in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''. Similarly, [[Wind Raid]], [[Tornado]], [[Tornado Strike]], and [[Windcutter]] are skills that utilize wind, although they do not inflict Aero damage.
===Weakness and Resistance===

Several pieces of armor provide Aero Resistance when equipped. Equipping the [[Aero Syphon]] ability allows the user to recover MP when taking Aero-type damage.

The [[air-toss]] status effect is closely associated with Aero, especially in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', in which Aero-themed equipment, abilities and accessories allow the player to inflict enemies with or protect the player from being air-tossed.
