Bechdel Test?The Bechdel Test checks whether a game has at least two named female characters who talk to each other about something other than a man. A simple measure of representation.N/A — no named characters

The core Elite Beat Agents are described as 'men in black'. While targets might include female characters, the narrative focus doesn't provide enough information to determine if two named female characters talk to each other about something other than a man.
