The Storm Rider was originally a dragon sleeping under Tung-Shao{{fact}} that gave strength to the Land of Dragons.

However, when [[Sora]] and his friends returned in order to search for [[Organization XIII]], they found that a man in black had transformed it into an immense Heartless and sent it to attack the Imperial City. Sora, [[Donald]], [[Goofy]], and [[Mulan]] rushed to the city to warn [[the Emperor]] about the dragon and this man, but they catch up to him at the palace and he reveals himself to be [[Xigbar]]. He runs off, leaving his [[Sniper]]s behind to fight them, but they defeat the [[Nobody|Nobodies]] and go in to talk to the Emperor. However, just as they finish warning him the Storm Rider attacks, and they rush out to fight it off. Sora and his friends are able to slay the dragon, returning peace to the Land of Dragons, and the Emperor rewards Mulan by letting her serve alongside Captain [[Li Shang]]. | ||

It can shoot lightning bolts from its wingtips and call lightning from the sky. Its most powerful attack is trapping opponents between two walls of electricity and shooting a large beam of thunder, causing massive damage on impact. Its only non-thunder attacks are dashing across the arena, carpeting it with bombs and spinning towards the party when they are on the ground. The carpet bomb attack can be easily predicted as the Heartless always claps its cymbal feet together beforehand. The dash attack can be avoided and used advantageously with a reaction command. | ||
It may be wise to equip the party with Lightning-resist armor before heading out to battle the dragon. Once the battle is underway, Sora will start out on the Heartless' back. Sora can choose to either attack the dragon's head directly, or attack the horns near the wings. If one chooses to attack and destroys both wings, Storm Rider will collapse on the ground and Sora will be able to unleash more powerful attacks without the risk of falling off. The Storm Rider will try and perform a barrel roll to shake Sora off (this becomes a double barrel roll later in the fight), counter this with the reaction command, which lets Sora stay on and keep attacking. | It may be wise to equip the party with Lightning-resist armor before heading out to battle the dragon.
