Locations

 * Beast's Castle
 * Twilight Town
 * The World That Never Was

Kingdom Hearts II
''A dragoon. A high-ranking Nobody. When a ball of light appears after parrying its attacks, use Learn. Time it accurately, to use Jump to attack.''

Learn can be used as often as possible, so a series of Jump attacks is one strategy option.

Strategy
Dragoons are one of the most powerful Nobodies. When they appear they drop directly to the ground, causing damage. Jump to avoid the shockwave attack then lead up with a combo. They use the jump attack constantly and it can make fighting difficult. Sora can use the Jump reaction command to eliminate them more easily. The Jump ability also becomes extremely useful when fighting Xaldin. In The World That Never Was when they appear at high levels they can be elimated with Session.

Etymology
The Dragoon is based on the Final Fantasy job class of the same name.

Trivia

 * The Dragoon's real face is actually in what appears to be its neck. The draconian head acts as a helmet for this variety of Nobody.
