In addition to being formally appointed as the Dark Night Elite Four of the Johto Region, granting him the real authority to freely mobilize the City Defense Force of any city in the Johto Region, Sato also received an enormous allocation of resources.

For five consecutive years, he could apply for two Treasure-grade Items each year. The specific items available would depend on that year's warehouse inventory.
He received access to the Top-tier Mimicry Space twice, with each visit allowing a stay of three months.
