Monster Rancher

Note: This game is also titled Monster Farm.

Bonus music track:
Play track two of the game disc in an audio CD player.

Hint: Training the ultimate monster:
First, start with a Grape (Dino/Naga). Work and train the monster in skill and strength only and build those attributes up to 999. Although this may seem difficult, it should only take a short amount of time as building increases strength by 10-16 points and each training mission increases skill by 50-56 points. Once the strength-based Flame Tackle attack is available, your monster will be unstoppable. As an added bonus, this monster also has a long life span.

Get a Monol (or Block) monster and get its fame above 80. Then, keep losing matches until his fame decreases past 40. It will turn into a Scribble monster.

Ape Monster:
Raise a very smart monster (at least in the 300s) take it to the jungle adventure and go directly to the old king's temple/palace. Have your "smart" monster check it and eventually you will find the magic banana. After getting the magic banana, spoil two monsters and combine them to get the ape monster. Be careful, as it is lazy.

Dragon Monster:
You would need two Dino, two Naga and one Dragon Tusk. Combine one Dino and one Naga to get one Stinger. Combine one Naga and one Dino to get one Grape. Then, combine the Stinger and Grape and use the item Dragon Tusk. You will get a notorious Red Dragon. Note: To get Dragon Tusk, earn your way up to Grade A battle (Dragon Tusk Tournament), where you will get to fight with one opponent (most probably a dragon as well) to get the prize.

White Dragon Jihad:
Use the following trick to breed the most powerful of all dragons, Jihad. Upon getting a Golem, combine the latter with a Red Dragon (not the other way around because it will result in another Golem). You should see the following combination results: ??? = 60% Jihad = 40%. You have now created the most invincible monster amongst the Dragon Class, White Dragon Jihad.

Hint: Spirit:
There is a one in sixteen chance that a deceased monster's spirit will travel to another monster you get from the shrine. A monster that is "possessed" in this way will not live long. However, if you combine it with another monster you may get the Ghost monster.
