The Photon Debugger (フォトンデバッガー Foton Debaggā?) is a Keyblade acquired after Sora's first trip to Space Paranoids in Kingdom Hearts II. This keyblade also appears as a card in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories in a reward room on the 12th floor after completing Reverse/Rebirth (Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+ in the Japanese version).

[edit] Acquisition

The keyblade is given to Sora by Tron after the two of them defeat the Hostile Program before it could destroy Hollow Bastion.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, the Photon Debugger can be acquired in the 12th floor (Destiny Islands) using a Key to Rewards card - that too, after completing Reverse/Rebirth mode (or Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix in the Japanese version of Re:Chain of Memories). The passive ability of Thunder Boost is carried on in Re:Chain of Memories, thus if Sora were to use the Photon Debugger card against any Heartless with a Thunder attribute, it would cause the Heartless to recover instead of lose HP.

[edit] Appearance

The Photon Debugger looks similar to the inhabitants of Space Paranoids, appearing to be constructed of computer circuitry. The key chain is a miniature version of the Identity Disc used by Tron in both Kingdom Hearts II and the film, Tron.

[edit] Etymology

Its name comes from two words; debugging is a way to get rid of a computer virus: it is possible that the virus are the Heartless and are destroyed by the Keyblade. Photons are forms of light, and Sora is the wielder of the Keyblade of Light.
