'''Dragon Quest Monsters''' (ドラゴンクエストモンスターズ ''Doragon Kuesuto Monsutāzu'') or '''Dragon Warrior Monsters''', as it was first known in North America, is a spin-off series of the ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' games. Published by [[Enix Corporation]] until the merger with Square, newer titles have since been published by [[Square Enix]]. ''Dragon Quest Monsters'' sets the player in a medieval/fantasy world filled with magic, monsters and knights, yet unlike the original ''Dragon Quest'' games, the player's character doesn't do any of the fighting in battles; instead the player has to rely on capturing, breeding and raising monsters to do the fighting for them. The concept originated from monster catching introduced when ''[[Dragon Quest V]]'' was released in 1992. The character and monster designs are by ''Dragon Ball'' creator, [[Akira Toriyama]]. | '''Dragon Quest Monsters''' (ドラゴンクエストモンスターズ ''Doragon Kuesuto Monsutāzu'') or '''Dragon Warrior Monsters''', as it was first known in North America, is a spin-off series of the ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' games.

As with other RPG's once the player defeats the opposing monsters and the battle ends, he or she is awarded a certain amount of experience points (EXP) which are used to level your Monsters. At the end of the battle, there exists a small chance the opposing Monster may join the party. In the newest addition to the series, ''Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker'', you actively scout for monsters during battle. | As with other RPG's once the player defeats the opposing monsters and the battle ends, he or she is awarded a certain amount of experience points (EXP) which are used to level your Monsters.
