Gatchas are prisoner transport ships used by the GEATHJERK Federation Supreme Armada. A testament to GEATHJERK's cruel invasion tactics, Gatchas are designed to humiliate their captives and horrify GEATHJERK's enemies.
First encountered during Operation 001-A, Gatchas can be found carrying captured citizens and Minor Wonderful Ones in many levels of the game.
GEATHJERK File[]
A ship designed to transport prisoners captured in enemy territory.
As an unmanned, remote-controlled craft designed strictly for transport, it possesses no offensive capabilities and low maneuverability. As the GEATHJERK invade other planets with the intent to slaughter, not capture, this ship's creators did not place a high priority on ensuring it could make the trip back home. The containment area is made with transparent glass, the better to humiliate its cargo. When the GEATHJERK are feeling particularly ruthless, they will bring these ships, full of prisoners, to enemy territory and use them as living shields. This ruthlessness terrifies their prisoners and horrifies their enemies.
Description[]
Gatchas resemble a metal flying saucer topped with a transparent glass sphere. Contained within the sphere are up to five multicolored spherical capsules, each containing one prisoner. At the front of each Gatcha is a hand-crank that can be turned to release the prisoners through a hatch on its underside.
Similar to how the color of other GEATHJERK enemies indicate their health, the color of the details on a Gatcha indicates its occupancy: changing from blue, to green, to yellow, to orange, and lastly to red as as prisoners are released. Once a Gatcha is emptied, it harmlessly self-destructs.
Gameplay[]
No need to write up a 2000 word essay for these guys
Despite being classed as an enemy, Gatchas are a source of items... the items being citizens and Minor Wonderful Ones. Each Gatcha contains 4 or 5 citizens that can be released one at a time using Unite Hand to turn their hand-crank. Citizens released from a Gatcha are automatically recruited, or rescued if your team is full. Certain Gatchas also contain captured Minor Wonderful Ones the first time they're opened.
At least a Size 50 Unite Hand is required to turn the hand-crank at full speed (one turn per prisoner). Any smaller size of Unite Hand must turn the crank twice per prisoner.
Finally, although their GEATHJERK File suggests that Gatchas are used as living shields, Gatchas can't actually be damaged, and are rarely found in combat areas in the first place, so they're never in any danger of being destroyed before their prisoners can be released.

Trivia[]
- Gachas are based on "ガチャポン/gachapon" machines.
- The name "Gatcha" is also a double entendre, as it resembles the informal contraction "gotcha" (got you), referring to the capture of its prisoners.
- A total of 12 Minor Wonderful Ones can be found inside Gatchas.
