When reduced to 75% HP or less (approximately 4.5 bars of HP remaining), Xaldin enters his second phase, where he begins attacking faster and teleporting short distances and although Sora can still use the Jump command, Xaldin moves so fast that Jump is likely to miss. Xaldin will also begin to use the Jump command himself, jumping up out of range and striking Sora with powerful blows with his lances a few times before striking Sora by jumping down with all of his lances. The initial shockwaves can be jumped over and the final Jump can be guarded, all the while allowing Sora to use Learn. His attacks increase in range and power, and he will whirl his lances around to attack rapidly. Since he will now smash Sora with Aero while he attacks, Guard will prove ineffective and it is better to use Reflect to deflect his lances. | When reduced to 75% HP or less (approximately 4.5 bars of HP remaining), Xaldin enters his second phase, where he begins attacking faster and teleporting short distances and although Sora can still use the Jump command, Xaldin moves so fast that Jump is likely to miss.

When reduced to 40% HP or less (approximately 2.5 bars of HP remaining), Xaldin enters his third phase. Xaldin now begins frequently and swiftly warping towards Sora, and swings his spears up to seven times. He also begins frequently using '''Wind of Despair''', where he summons an aura and becomes invincible as the screen turns dark. He attacks quickly with his lances, which deal massive damage if hit, before teleporting next to Sora and connecting his lances, leaping atop them. The lances take on the form of a dragon, which launches a blast of wind along the length of the bridge. Sora can Quick Run or Dodge Roll through the wind, or simply cast [[Reflect]]. If the wind is launched from one side of the bridge, it will not reach the other end. Xaldin will use this attack more as he loses health. | When reduced to 40% HP or less (approximately 2.5 bars of HP remaining), Xaldin enters his third phase.

Xaldin returns as a Data Rematch battle and is much more powerful. His health has greatly increased, but the strategy to defeat him remains more or less the same. Of note is that his Protective Wind now reduces all incoming damage to a mere one point, and that coming in contact with it deals massive damage to Sora, making the Jump reaction command most of the time the only way to start dealing good damage. | Xaldin returns as a Data Rematch battle and is much more powerful.
