Welcome to the world of Monster Rancher

In this page, I shall explain the basis of Monster Rancher for those that are new to it. Along with something, you would only know if you saw the Anime they made about it. Plus some of my own things that I'll add to my own story. Lastly, I will post pictures of the base monster type for as many as I can think off. If you want more you'll have to look up their subtypes on your own as their hundred possible thousands!

 

 

 

Terms
 
Monsters: The main creatures in the Monster Rancher world.
Side note: Monsters are able to talk like humans. They can still make animals noises too.
 
Baddies: Monster that have gone rogue, and wear a crest. Often those who have run away from their masters. In the anime, they were lead by the monster Moo, and later by a Captain Durihan.
Side note: Baddies can go back to being good thanks to the Phoenix fire or a human kindness!
 
 
 
 
 
Mystery Disk: Disk's in which Monsters are born from. Made by an ancient race of human who were very advanced. That was destroyed by one of its creations known as Moo. All disk, for the most part, look alike. Thier's only been two cases in the show that they were shown differently. While in the games, they may have different colors! Below is the basic look of the disk. For a reference.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Lost Disk: A monster who has been severely injured, instead of dying may turn into a lost disk. It was said they could never be brought back. However, a legend about the Phoenix spread, and when it arose it brought back the lost disks! Though they had to be re-unlocked. The monster would then come out as it once was! For the most part.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Breeders: People who train monsters to fight in tournaments, and the monster rancher League. In the show, we have seen Monster fight without a Breeder, another monster registered as the Breeder. Another name for a Breeder is Coach in the games. 
 
Shrine: A shrine is a place people take disks to be read and turned into a monster. The outside of the shrine varies while the inside look similar. In the anime, in the game shrine inside and out are very different if thiers one at all.
 
Ancient People: Supposedly the people who created every single monster, and the technology to seal them in disks. To be unlocked at another time. (Found only in the anime)
 
God: Depending on what you're going off some say god made the monster's, and disks. Other then that religion is not mentioned, or really shown in the games/anime all that much. From time to time, a monster info may compare them to something 'god-like'.
 
Monster heart: When a monster dies it leaves behind its heart which can be mixed with another monster. Which is only seen in the games.
 
Combining Monsters: If a Monster is dying it can be combined with another monster to live on. It will have a main type and a subtype. Monster may choice to do this on their own. Or a Breeder will choice to do this.

 

Extras

 

​Animals in our world are found in the shown. By what's shown on the table to be eaten. 

 

Each monster has different moves from one another. Which is based on the main type of monster they are.

 

Everyone can open mystery disk's, though some may not open because of the person expires. 

 

Monster speak like humans, so if you play one you'll talk normally as you do when you play anything else.

 

Not everyone uses monsters to fight battles, some are just friends. Other help with daily life!

 

A person may travel with as many monsters as they like. As seen in the anime. In game, for the most part, a breeder can only raise a monster at a time. In later games, they raise more that one.

 

When a monster is born for the first time it only knows two moves. The first move is normally a physical one Fin slap, slap, tail whip, head but, somersault, bite and so on. While the second move  is a special move. That varies based on the monsters main type 

 

After a monster leaves its owner/partner if it does. They are marked as Stray or Wild Monsters. It's also been seen that Monster are able to have babies after their out of their disk. It's not clear if they all have to still come from a disk like a monster gives birth to it in disk from. Or if it's like us mammals. The anime makes this confusing and the game never explains this. So I'll say they give birth like us.

 

Technology after the ancient died, that are left over. Are a few airships which have fallen into the baddies hands, Iron bird smaller airship not shaped like a bird, and Ships that sail on the sea. I'll be adding trains power by monster. Be it physical like running or moving a wheel with magic!

 

To fight monsters in sports, one must take their monster to a coliseum to fight. It's rare for people to fight in the street. Badiess will do this while they steal from people as well. These make normal people fight for their lives!

 

 This is the site with all the Monster/subtypes. I will only paste the main type and it's name so you can look up all the subtype if you like. I don't have all of them as they can be hard to find, so if you want something else check the list. Click the play button or arrows to look through the slide shows. Next to each monster name is a word to show its size. Small,(2 feet or less) Medium(2-5 feet tall) and Large(5 feet and bigger). If I put an S on the creature it means you have to have S rank to unlock it. Which at the start we won't be able to. Sorry for the quality, these are all I could find.
