Wakka is a resident of the [[Destiny Islands]] and a friend of [[Sora]], [[Kairi]], and [[Riku]]. He spends a lot of time with [[Tidus]] and [[Selphie]], and treats them just as a big brother would. He and Tidus expressed their curiosity over the Secret Place, and were thinking of exploring it. | Wakka is a resident of the [[Destiny Islands]] and a friend of [[Sora]], [[Kairi]], and [[Riku]].

Like Selphie and Tidus, Wakka appears in Sora's Dive to the Heart on the Destiny Islands area. His question, "What do you want outta life?" also helps determine the leveling pace throughout the rest of the game. Sora can answer with either A) to see rare sights, B) to broaden my horizons, or C) to be strong. | Like Selphie and Tidus, Wakka appears in Sora's Dive to the Heart on the Destiny Islands area.

Later, he can be fought while on Destiny Islands; if he, Tidus, and Selphie are all defeated, Sora can duel all three of them at once. | ||
It is unknown what happens to him after Destiny Islands is destroyed, though he reappears when the worlds are restored after Sora defeats [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]. | |||

On Destiny Islands, he practices fighting skills with Sora, using his ball as a thrown weapon. During this battle, if Sora can manage to block one of Wakka's attacks via hitting the ball back at him, it earns him one tech point. If Wakka jumps in the air and throws the ball at Sora and Sora successfully blocks it he gets two tech points. After defeating Tidus, Selphie, and Wakka as individuals, Sora is able to fight against them all at the same time. | |||

His is the first person to meet [[finalfantasy:Tidus|Tidus]] after the young man washes ashore in the world of [[finalfantasy:Spira|Spira]], and recruits him to his Blitzball team. Throughout the game, Wakka forms a close brotherly relationship with Tidus, helping him navigate the traditions and lore of this new world, believing him to be mentally ill following his contact with [[finalfantasy:Sin|Sin]]. Wakka uses blitzballs as his weapons in battle for long-ranged attacks, making him a useful combatant against flying enemies. | ||

*Originally, Wakka was not intended to be in ''Kingdom Hearts''; his role was supposed to be filled by [[w:c:finalfantasy:Irvine Kinneas|Irvine Kinneas]] from ''[[w:c:finalfantasy:Final Fantasy VIII|Final Fantasy VIII]]''.{{fact}} | *Originally, Wakka was not intended to be in ''Kingdom Hearts''; his role was supposed to be filled by [[w:c:finalfantasy:Irvine Kinneas|Irvine Kinneas]] from ''[[w:c:finalfantasy:Final Fantasy VIII|Final Fantasy VIII]]''.{{fact}} | ||
*Wakka's character model is reused and with a new palette for a minor character. This character can only be seen in Agrabah after you have cleared the story as one of the many non-playable characters managing the shops, but doesn't reappear again in subsequent visits as the Heartless reappear once the player leaves and comes back. | *Wakka's character model is reused and with a new palette for a minor character.

*Wakka uses his Blitzball to attack as he did in ''Final Fantasy X'', but this one lacking the bumps and Spiran script for the word "Blitzball" of the original. Nevertheless, this makes him, out of all the Destiny Islands and Twilight Town ''Final Fantasy'' characters, the only one to use exactly the same weapon as his original incarnation. | |||
*Like Selphie and Tidus, Wakka's battle stance and basic attack are based off his ''Final Fantasy X'' appearance. Also, his attack where he yells "Take this!" is similar in appearance to one of his [[finalfantasy:Overdrive (Final Fantasy X)|Overdrives]], Status Reels. | |||
*Selphie's comment on Wakka's and Tidus' ballgame is a reference to [[finalfantasy:Blitzball|Blitzball]] from ''Final Fantasy X''. | |||
