- MegaMan's Charge Shot becomes Invis. While this doesn't deal any damage, it allows MegaMan to avoid damage for a short period of time.
- Utilizing 'Weapon Level +1" NCPs will override the Invis Charge Shot. However, you will need to use extra NCPs to reach the same Weapon Level as other styles (i.e., 3 Weapon Level +1 NCPs are needed to get to Level 3 for Shadow Style whereas only 2 are needed to get to Level 3 for styles like Guts or Custom).
- Charge+ NCPs have no effect on the charge time for Shadow Style's Invis Charge Shot.
- Shadow Style can use red Navi Customizer Programs without errors.
