Project-TC

Project-TC, or Project Transcode, is an ongoing Satella Police operation which uses the new Hunter-VG terminal to register and maintain a list of humans and Wizards who can perform an EM Wave Change, as well as the identity of the Wave Change itself. The primary goal of the research and testing in Project-TC is to perfect the processes of synthetic Wave Change and give Wizards' operators control of it while minimizing the risks associated.

The secondary goal of the project is to develop a system that will allow operators to control Noise. Most of the testing is currently done through the Satella Police's own A.C. Eos and his Wizard, Acid, as well as their Wave Change, Acid Ace.

Once a person in possession of a Hunter-VG performs an EM Wave Change, they are connected to the Satella Police Network, where they are registered and assigned a Transcode. The Satella Police keeps a tight registry of those who are allowed to legally perform Wave Changes.

Trivia

 * There are neither identities nor information given concerning Transcode numbers 006 through 010 and 012 through 019, as well as any other possible members. Although original art work suggested Gemini Spark was to be number 010, but was scrapped.
 * From what can be seen, Transcodes are assigned the moment the person Wave Changes for the first time while in possession of a Hunter-VG (A.C. Eos obviously being first and revealing Solo Wave Changed before Geo), so there are then five people who have Wave Changed before Wolf Woods, and an additional eight before Cygnus Wing.
 * Before entering Diamond Ice's Cyber Core, Geo shouts the old phrase (EM Wave Change), Although he is supposed to use the Transcode phrase.
 * In the English version of the game, Geo simply says "Transcode, Mega Man!", but in the Japanese version of the game he says "Transcode, Shooting Star Rockman!".
 * This is because "Starforce" is only an unofficial disambiguation name, and Geo's EM Wave Changed form shares his exact name with the original Mega Man, with no disambiguation suffix. Thus, the Wave Change announcement is a direct translation.
 * The Japanese-only "Battle Black Box" sourcebook describes Joker as Transcode: 000.
 * The name "Transcode" can be interepreted as "Transformation Code", as well as the act of Transcoding.
 * Despite Cygnus Wing being registered as Transcode 20 there are not enough em wave changes to equal 20
