===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===
Parasite Cage is seen in [[Castle Oblivion]] as a figment of Sora's memory in his memories of Monstro. It captures Pinocchio when he tries to escape from the danger that was coming. Sora then fights the Heartless until he manages to knock it out. After Sora convinces Pinocchio to act brave, Pinocchio fights his way out of the Heartless until he escapes. After the Heartless disappears, Pinocchio reveals that the monster spat out when he started fighting back and that Sora and his friends should try that on Monstro to help him and Geppetto escape.

The Parasite Cage also appears to Riku, as a figment of his memory and a representation of the darkness within him.

;Attacks
*Left Tentacle: the Parasite Cage swings its left appendage.
*Right Tentacle: the Parasite Cage swings its right appendage.
*Double Swing: the Parasite Cage connects its appendages and swings them in both directions, characterized for being its strongest attack.
At the start, remain on the platform and lock on to the Cage's head, shooting Fira or Gravity spells at it. Keep doing this until it's beaten and escapes. If Sora needs to recharge, either use an Ether or attack the head and cage with the Keyblade until he's regained enough [[MP]]. Riku will aid Sora in this battle, making him the only fellow fighter in the battle. After winning, Goofy learns the Cheer ability. Note that if Neverland is completed first, Riku will not appear and will not be there to help.

;Attacks
*Left Tentacle: the Parasite Cage swings its left appendage.
*Super Left Tentacle: the Parasite Cage swings its left appendage more powerfully (marked by the mandibles at the end shining at the height of swing).
*Right Tentacle: the Parasite Cage swings its right appendage.
*Super Right Tentacle: the Parasite Cage swings its right appendage more powerfully (marked by the mandibles at the end shining at the height of swing).
*Double Swing: the Parasite Cage connects its appendages and swings them in both directions (one of its strongest attacks).
*Stomach Acid: the appendages' mandibles absorb stomach acid from Monstro's stomach and the head fired it as a poisonous gas; best avoided on the ground.
*Swing: the appendages mount themselves on the ground and the cage swings into the air; best avoided to the side.
This fight is much the same as the last one, but the Cage has developed a new poison breath attack. When the Cage gets tired and sags backward for a moment, its mouth will open. Bash it with the Keyblade and try to execute a couple of flying combos during this time. When it recovers, return to the normal strategy of casting spells at the head. Eventually, it reverts to its old strategy, and Sora can get closer to smash it with the [[Keyblade]]. Be careful not to step in the green acid surround the field, as it will damage Sora. After the battle is over, Sora and Donald will learn the Stop spell. The party is then automatically ejected from Monstro and returns to the Gummi Ship.

In both Sora's and Riku's battles with the Parasite Cage, there will be four revolving platforms, floating on digestive acids. Using the Gimmick Card will cause these four platforms to disappear, and a large one to appear in the center, close to the Parasite Cage. Avoid stepping in the green acid as it will deal damage to Sora/Riku.
In both Sora's and Riku's battles with the Parasite Cage, there will be four revolving platforms, floating on digestive acids. Using the Gimmick Card will cause these four platforms to disappear, and makes the acid harmless in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', or remove the acid in ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories''. Avoid stepping in the green acid as it will deal damage to Sora/Riku, and cancels their card in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''. In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', the Parasite Cage will drop HP prizes for every hit landed when it is stunned.

====Reverse/Rebirth====
Since Riku obtains the Monstro world card within the first few stages of the game, defeating the Parasite Cage is simple. The only thing Riku needs to do is successfully fill the Dark Points gauge bar up to 30 by breaking every single card. After that, attack the Parasite Cage—simple attacks, sleights, or anything else. Note that while Riku is in Dark Mode, HP orbs come out of the Parasite Cage with every attack, so it is easy to heal and stun the enemy. In addition, Riku has the Search Ghost enemy card to heal him each time he strikes it.

In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', Riku should avoid stepping on the acid when in Dark Mode, as he loses 5 Dark Points when he takes any damage, and continuous hits will make him revert to normal quickly.
