After that Sora fights Pete on foot, and after taking some damage, he yells, "How about a change", a curtain with Pete's face comes down, and the scene shifts to one of the four windows on Cornerstone Hill (where Sora had earlier had to clear each of them in order to gain information on how Pete had traveled to this time period). Sora, Donald and Goofy fight through each of the four windows until Pete is defeated.

Silly me, for a moment I thought this was the Sequential Boss page. Here, in Multi Stage Battle, the boss fight takes place in different locations, while a Sequential Boss is more specific in that the multiple phases of the battle take place in the same scene. Therefore, your added examples as well as mine only fit the latter trope
