Valor Form

File:Valor Form.png

Valor Form (Brave Form in the Japanese version) is the first Drive Form attained in Kingdom Hearts II. This form is obtained along with Sora's new clothes at Yen Sid's Tower. Sora merges with Goofy to transform. The form turns Sora's clothes into a red and black color scheme with a fleur-de-lis on each sleeve and pant leg. In this form, Sora wields two keyblades. This form focuses on attack, and is the most offensive of any form. Valor Form allows Sora to get in close and bash away to do heavy damage in a short amount of time, at the cost of losing the ability to cast magic.

While in this form, Sora can run faster than usual, making Valor the second fastest Drive Form, compared to Final's gliding ability.

This form also gives Sora access to the Star Seeker Keyblade until he obtains the Keyblades Hidden Dragon or Hero's Crest.

Leveling Up

The Valor Form has the easiest way to level compared to the others. It levels up simply by landing successful hits on an enemy, and Valor Form has a very long combo.

By leveling up the Valor Form, Sora will develop the ability High Jump, which allows him to jump at unreachable heights.
