10 Video Game Companions So Strong You're Just Getting In The Way

Now, we've discussed before that Donald Duck can be a real drag to hang out with in the Kingdom Hearts games due to his grating voice and low HP, but if you're willing to put up with his relentless squawking and need to be constantly healed, he's an extremely powerful magic user with some truly ridiculous spells.

But Donald's most infamous crowning moment came in Kingdom Hearts III, when he used Zettaflare to fend off Terra-Xehanort.

To be clear, Zettaflare is the most powerful spell in the Kingdom Hearts/Final Fantasy franchise, enough that even the legendary Bahamut wasn't capable of wielding it - until that was finally corrected with the recent Final Fantasy XVI.

The point stands, though, that Kingdom Hearts III elevates Donald from a surprisingly potent magic user to one of the most powerful in existence, a revelation so ridiculous that it's since spawned innumerable memes.

Though Zettaflare clearly takes a serious physical toll on Donald, with Goofy warning him not to cast it before it renders him unconscious, it makes Donald so comically OP that Sora might as well just sit things out.
