The player gets more monsters by scouting them. Unlike previous games in the series, this is a battle command, and not the result of using items in battle. | The player gets more and more monsters by scouting them. Unlike previous games in the series, this is a battle command, and not the result of using items in battle. The player can make as many scouting attempts as needed during a battle, until the monster decides to join, or takes offense. Success depends on the relative strengths of the monsters making the attempt versus the relative defense of the monster that is being scouted. | ||
The monster families have been rearranged into a different categorization, so some monsters are in different families than they were on previous ''Dragon Quest Monsters'' games: | The monster families have been rearranged into a different categorization, so some monsters are in different families than they were on previous ''Dragon Quest Monsters'' games: | ||

Monsters now all have a rank associated with them: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, and X. The ranks give an idea of how quickly the monster's stats will grow, and how hard they are to get/synthesize. There are 210 different monsters, though some are just color swaps of others, with different stats. | Monsters now all have a rank associated with them: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, and X.

There are three monsters, [[Trode]] (トロデ, Torode), [[Leopold]] (レオパルド, Reoparudo), and [[Empyrea]] (レティス, Retisu) that can not be scouted or bred in the normal game.

The only way to get Empyrea is to collect all 210 monsters in the library. Players will receive a Leopold when they have collected all of the different possible skills in the library. Leopold and Empyrea are required in order to synthesize the main monster into its final forms. | ||
The only way to get Trode is to visit a DS Station in Japan or to cheat. There, one can use the games' Wireless mode to fight against and attempt to scout him. | |||
