Before this fight, swap out Goofy for Beast, and have Sora's item slots filled with Megalixirs, Ethers and Mega-Potions.

Sora should jump to avoid her fire breath attacks. [[ | Sora should jump to avoid her fire breath attacks. [[Donald]] should be included in the party, ready for healing, and [[Beast]] in the party, for a strong offense. Attack with Sora's strongest magic and have strong healing items at the ready in case Donald does not help. Keep bombarding her with strong magic and it will be over quickly. If Sora runs out of MP, attack the dragon's head. If Beast gets knocked out, do not heal him. If Donald gets knocked out, revive him immediately. | ||
It may be wise to summon Tinker Bell to restore HP periodically—this could be a great help as Tinker Bell can bring Sora back to life once if he is drained out of HP. | It may be wise to summon Tinker Bell to restore HP periodically—this could be a great help as Tinker Bell can bring Sora back to life once if he is drained out of HP. | ||

Another strategy for this fight is to go under the large root and summon Tinker Bell. She will continually heal Sora throughout this battle, reducing the need to use Cure/Cura or an item. Let Donald and Beast do most of the work and heal them when they are hurt (have Donald equipped with ability [[Second Chance]]). The only attack that the Dragon can hit Sora with when he is under the large root is the series of green fire, which does quite a bit of damage. To prevent this from hitting him, use Guard to deflect it or use Aero magic. Finally, after the other party members do all the hard work, come out of the hiding place and attack continually or strike the final blow. Fortunately, Sora can cast [[Stop]] to keep the dragon frozen for about a little more than a second so Sora can deal the final blow. | Another strategy for this fight is to go under the large root and summon Tinker Bell.

As soon as the battle begins, summon Tinker Bell as she will heal Sora throughout the battle. Attack the Dragon's head with Ars Arcanum until Sora runs out of MP. When she starts breathing fire, run away and lock on to her then cast Fira. Do not worry about MP as Goofy will keep giving his to Sora. If Donald is Knocked Out, heal him as he is the main healer. When she summons the orbs of fire, hit them away as doing so will give tech points. | ||
An additional strategy is to glide to her back leg and jump on her back, preferably in between her wings. From here continually use the Strike Raid ability to inflict damage. The party should consist of Goofy (equipped with MP Gift) and Beast. Fill their item slots with Ethers so that can rejuvenate the MP Strike Raid uses. Remove Sonic Blade so Sora doesn't accidentally use it on her head and fly into Maleficent's attacks. | An additional strategy is to glide to her back leg and jump on her back, preferably in between her wings.

Dragon Maleficent is the boss of Hollow Bastion in both Sora's story and ''Reverse/Rebirth''. She fights similarly to her battle in ''Kingdom Hearts'', but with more time in between attacks. Sora and Riku must jump to attack her head (her only weak point), when the [[Gimmick Card]] is used it creates a pile of bricks which allows the protagonist to reach her head more easily. This also keeps the protagonist from being injured from her stomping attack. However, each stomp destroys some of the bricks. | |||
The fight in ''Reverse/Rebirth'' is easier due to being the first boss of the campaign. | |||

The pile of bricks of the Gimmick Card is replaced with a moving pedestal—the protagonist can move freely towards Maleficent's head while he is on it. Successfully breaking Maleficent's stomp attack keeps the pedestal aloft, allowing the protagonist to continue attacking her head. However, note that she is immune to some Sleights. | ||
