Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
A winged Heartless that mainly appears in Halloween Town.
It pelts its stunned opponents with fireballs.
Strategy
This type of Heartless has a hard-to-read attack cycle. One moment it is in orb form, flying around Sora's head, the next moment charging up an attack by spewing a homing ball of light from its mouth. This Heartless actually only has a few basic attacks, but they are quite powerful, so watch out.
- Wing Attack: Unexpectedly enlarges its wings and thrusts them at you with alarming speed, dealing great damage.
- Claw Attack: Lashes out with claws, dealing a heavy blow.
- Kick Attack: Takes a quick swing with both its legs at you, dealing small damage.
- Spewing Attack: Throwing back its head, it almost seems to gargle a heat-seeking ball of powerful energy, causing heavy damage.
- Transporting: Not so much of an attack, but more of an unexpected way for it to get closer to you. It silently turns into a ball of blue flame, and dives down towards you, preparing for an attack. Be on your guard if you see one doing this.
Trivia

- The tips of a Gargoyle's wings bear some resemblance to the Nobody symbol.
- When Oogie Boogie called out to the Heartless after swallowing the artificial heart created by Dr. Finkelstein, hoping to control them, the only Heartless that came to help him were Gargoyles.
