Each of the summons do have their own special attack. They do come in handy when fighting Heartless and certain bosses, but they shouldn't be heavily relied on.

Radiant Garden (3rd Visit)
Part 1-In the Eyes of a Witch
(Recap Episode)
While arriving at Radiant Garden, Sora, Donald and Goofy met up with the Radiant Garden Restoration Committee. They discuss the strange happenings that have been occuring in the town lately. They decide to lead an investigation and solve the problems of the rampaging Heartless.
The comittee splits up into four groups. Leon and Rinoa stay at Merlin's House. Cloud, Aerith, Yuffie and Cid go to the castle, where they tried to gain access to Ansem's Computer data. Yuna, Rikku and Paine went to the Marketplace, where they kept a close watch on the town, from above. Sora, Donald, Goofy and Merlin take on the Heartless head-on.
A gummi ship blasts into the world. Onboard, was Riku, Kairi and Pluto. The three proceed to Merlin's House.
The Villains' plans were finally ready for action, yet mounting tension within the group proved to be unbearable. Malfecent sends Cruella DeVil to stop Sora and the others. They encountered Cruella, who the easily defeated.
The rest of the restoration committee continued to perform their tasks. The team continues into the Dark Valley, closer to Villains' Vale, closer to Maleficent. Cruella turned on the League of Villains and decided to thwart their plans by telling Sora Maleficent's goal. Kairi was kidnapped by a dark figure.
The team confronts Maleficent, whom they fiercely battled. In a moment of opportunity, Maleficent was about to kill Sora with her dark magic, but Merlin blocked the attack and is struck instead. Maleficent fled the scene.
In Villains' Vale, the Queen, disguised as a peddler woman, tricked Kairi into opening the door of darkness, causing a flood of Heartless and darkness to occur. The rush of darkness effected Kingdom Hearts, and in turn, all worlds among the stars.Sora, Donald and Goofy saw the event happen and ran to warn the townspeople, as the mounting force of darkness rushed forwards. Cruella ran after them in hot pursuit.
Maleficent magically conjured a tornado, which ripped through the world causing mass destruction. The cyclone kills Cruella, as Maleficent gladly watches. The Marketplace was under attack by Hades, who caused a great fire to spread across the town, and Gaston, who pilfered items from the shops. In the Dark Valley, Ursula causes a mounting wave of water and darkness to flood the land.
The team rushes and takes cover behind some debris in the Bailey, as the rapid tornado tore through the town. Then, everthing stopped, as Maleficent saw the destruction she caused. The town had been completely destroyed. The castle was no longer there.
