What makes Satazius stand out, though, is the incredible level design. Like their other games, the sprites are fantastic and the music exceptional, and the controls are as tight as responsive as you could possibly hope for. Satazius Next, like Armed 7, is a horizontally scrolling shooter, but Astro Port really went above and beyond with this one.

Theoretically, if you had the shiny charm, a perfect dex entry, and an outbreak, your chances of seeing a shiny Pokemon are about 1 in 185 which is pretty much as generous as the series has been with encounter rates. These outbreaks will cause anywhere from half a dozen to two dozen Pokemon of a specific species to spawn, and they have elevated shiny rates. You also get the Shiny Charm when you “complete” every dex entry which further boosts your shiny odds, and there are “outbreak” events that will randomly spawn in one of the game’s regions. For Pokemon whose dex entry is “complete,” that drops to around 1 in 2000 if the dex entry is “perfect,” it’s about 1 in 1000. The base rate of a Pokemon’s spawning in its shiny form is just a little less than 1 in 4000. These labels are also a part of why the game has a reputation for being so generous with shiny spawn rates. You only need to complete a handful to get the dex entry to rank 10 and get the “complete” label, but if you complete ALL of it, you get the “perfect” label.

This affects what level Pokemon will listen to you and what balls you can craft. The more tasks you complete, the higher your rank goes. Each Pokemon has around 20 or 25 research tasks to complete. Instead of eight gym badges, you gain star ranks in the Survey Corps for completing research tasks in the Pokedex. Since there are no gyms or Pokemon League, progression is obviously quite different, as well.
