A majority of A Distant Echo takes place on Skako Minor, a new planet to Star Wars Universe.

Skako Minor is visually stunning, with the dusty, rock covered environment immediately standing out. It feels like a Pokémon route where there would always be a sandstorm, or like Tatooine on steroids.

Additionally, the episode establishes the world of Skako quite nicely. It is home to a tall, wiry like species known as the Poletec, who Rex describes as primitive since they worship flying reptiles.

Said flying reptiles are then involved in one of the most fun battle sequences of the episode when they capture Anakin. Crosshair saves him by firing a grappling hook onto its leg and chasing it in the sky.

Hopefully, this isn't the last time our heroes come to Skako Minor.
