Off the top of my head we've had Digimon, Monster Hunter: Stories, Yo-Kai Watch, Dragon Quest Monsters, Cassette Beasts, TemTem, Ooblets and Monster Crown. The only one that really hit it pretty big was TemTem and it was nowhere near the success of this.

temtem screwed up by adding micro transactions. and a paid battle pass. like, I've already bought the game and now you want me to spend more money like it's a f2p piece of junk?

I'd like to add Anode Heart and Monster Sanctuary to that fine list.

Jade Cocoon was also pretty fun but it's old as hell by this point.

Whenever I read this title, I wish for a spiritual successor with modernized graphics and animations as well as the same story depth. It was a damn near perfect game and I adored the merging process of monsters for their spells and optics. More of that, please! I loved the various weapon effects, the taming melodies... such a beautiful game.
