Monster recruitment was simplistic in its original inception, being a fixed percentage that could not be changed by the player. If multiple recrutiable monsters appear in the same encounter, only the final felled foe will have a chance to join the Hero.
Monster recruitment was simplistic in its original inception, being a fixed percentage that could not be changed by the player. If multiple recrutiable monsters appear in the same encounter, only the final felled foe will have a chance to join the Hero.
In the DS and mobile versions, monster allies will only alternate between two lines of dialogue during party chat, as opposed to the fuller conversations of human characters. See the Gallery for recruitment percentages for each monster.
In the DS and [[cell phone]] versions, monster allies will only alternate between two lines of dialogue during party chat, as opposed to the fuller conversations of human characters.

===Unavailable in PS2 version===
As of 2019, the cell phone ports saw the addition of the [[Monster magnet|Monster Magnet]] accessory for the [[Hero (Dragon Quest V)|The Hero]], which when equipped can increase the odds of a monster joining up by one rank. This is likely due to the release of [[Dragon Quest: Your Story]], which would have attracted a new audience to the title and such players would have desired an easier time collecting monsters.
Archdemon, Jailcat

In the original SNES version of ''VI'' monster recruitment worked identically to ''V'', though someone in the party must be a [[Monster Master]]. When the DS version (and subsequent mobile ports) were produced, this mechanic was retired in favor of "Slime Buddies": slimes players could interact with in towns and dungeons like NPCs who would join the party once certain conditions were met. These slimes are not treated as full characters, however, and thus lack the detailed party chat of humans and Lizzie.

Certain monsters can be recruited by players beginning in version 2.4 Taming is done through a skill attack that creates a fixed 10% chance to capture the monster once it falls. The skill does not need to be the final blow of the battle; as long as it has been used over the course of the encounter the chance to recruit the beast is established. Monsters that have joined players are controlled through A.I. and essentially serve as party members for times when the player's fiends and comrades are offline.

==''[[Dragon Quest Builders 2]]''==
On explorer's shores after Skelkatrez, one can recruit monsters with [[Monster munchies]]. When a monster that can be tamed is defeated, there is a chance that it will stand up instead of fading away and a thirty second timer will begin to count down--the munchies must be used in this period or the monster will become annoyed and go away.
Tamed monsters join the residents of the Island of Awakening as NPCs, who go about their daily routines as the other islanders do, and some have special effects: the chimaeras can be ridden to fly, the powie yowie can be given an ice lolly to spread snow, the liquid metal slime will play tag once a day for 100 hearts, etc.
