The '''Crescendo''', also translated as "'''Loudmouth'''" in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', is an Emblem [[Heartless]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''. It is one of only three Heartless that debut in ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', along with the [[Creeper Plant]] and [[Tornado Step]].

==Design==
==Design==
Based on the design of an old-fashioned [[wikipedia:Vehicle horn|vehicle horn]], the round, black body of the Crescendo resembles a squeeze bulb, while its golden mouth resembles the bell of an [[wikipedia:Horn (instrument)|instrumental horn]]. The Heartless's black head and antenna resembles a musical note, notably a [[wikipedia:Eighth note|quaver or an eighth note]]. A red collar separates the head and body. Two yellow eyes can be seen on its face, and it seems to be wearing earmuffs on its head, which are light and dark blue in color. The Heartless emblem can be seen clearly on the front of its body.

==Strategy==
==Strategy==
*'''Healing Trumpet''': Heal Heartless' HP
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
*'''Trumpet Strike''': Pounce and trumpet swing
These Heartless can be both a pain and a gain. They have low strength, but they can call in reinforcements. They can also heal nearby Heartless, but by using the '''Heal Stomp''' [[Reaction Command]], the Crescendo's healing sounds are directed towards [[Sora]]'s party instead.
*'''Trumpet Summon''': Summon Heartless
 
These Heartless can be both a pain and a gain. They have little strength, but their sounds can call in reinforcements. Their sounds can also heal nearby Heartless, but by using the [[Reaction Command]], Heal Stomp, the Crescendo's healing sounds are directed towards [[Sora]] and friends instead.
The Crescendo retaliates with its '''Trumpet Strike''' or '''Trumpet Summon''' techniques when damaged.

===''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''===
Loudmouths should generally be targeted first, as their healing of other Heartless will prove a major annoyance. If they begin their healing attack, quickly dispatch them before they can finish with Fire or Blizzard magic, which they are weak to. They have little in the way of offensive capabilities save for a projectile attack which can easily be blocked, but will always inflict the Air-toss status effect if the attack lands.
