Create a Monster Rancher(Monster Farm) Monster Breeds Tier List

Monster Rancher(NA)/Monster Farm(JP) purebreed monsters across all mainline games and mobage, and then DS there is sort of the odd one out b

This was a dumb thing to take the time to make, because I know damn well there are tiermaker lists for this out there already, but i'm picky so i tried to make one that's a little more visually uniform and has legible text and no one ever seems to anything about that when making these.

Oh and i guess posting about this is a good an excuse as any to plug my big dumb masterlist of that time I went and tried to poke around all the different monster names to see if English localization had really fucked up any ones in particular. Also there's just a lot of fun factoids and references in there.

ANTLAN[アントラン] it's a little ANT dude who has a tokusatsu superhero gimmmick...

Normally I'd start with the actual unique designs, but technically Antlan started as the GBA original and their kind of mascot character, so I'll just roll through this

TOMCAT[トムキャット]

CUTIE[キューティー]

DRAGOON[ドラグーン]

AKAKAGE[アカカゲ] from the classic 1960s ninja superhero, AKAKAGE[赤影]: "Red Shadow"

CARAVAN[キャラバン]

HERO[ヒーロー]

GRASS-V[グラスビー] I assume it's V for Victory and not just B for ???? I don't think it's GRASS-BEE although the insect thing i guess wouldn't not make sense?

ACE[エース]

MARVEL[マーヴル] like MARVEL comics?

OCTOBURN[オクトバン] OCTO and BURN but possibly a play on OCTOBER?

CHASER[チェイサー]（アントラン+モギィ）

JUSTICE[ジャスティス] I swear there was a different monster with this name...（アントラン+デュラハン）

RACOON[ラクーン]（アントラン+モモ）

SEAGULL[シーガル]（アントラン+レシオネ）

GEKKO[ゲッコウ] from GEKKO KAMEN[月光仮面]: "Moonlight Mask" the classic and arguably first TV tokusatsu hero

NINJA[ニンジャ]

HAKEN[ハーケン] I assume from HAMU and i assume KEN[拳]:"fist"? and not the German HAKEN:"hooked"

TRICKSTER[トリックスター]（アントラン+ギタン）

PHANTOM[ファントム]（アントラン+モノリス）

GUARDIAN[ガーディアン]

KABUTOLAN[カブトラン] from KABUTOMUSHI[甲虫]: "rhinoceros beetle" swapping the Ant for Kabuto in ANTLAN

SKELETOLAN[スカルトラン]（アントラン+???）

RAGE-ROCK[レイジロック]

QUINTY[クインティ] from the villain of the old Mendel Palace puzzle game??

PHARAOH-EYE[ファラオアイ] Probably meant as EYE just the literal sense, but a lesser known Pharaoh of Egypt with a fairly brief reign in the 1300s was in fact named AY.

BRACKUS[ブラッカス]

RHINO-LINE[ライノライン] previously named RHINER[ライナー]

EVIL[イーヴル]

ECOLOGIA[エコロジア]

PROTO-ANTS[プロトアンツ]

FALCOLAN[ファルコラン] FALCON and ANTLAN, ironically this was before FALCO was introduced in the DS games

DRYING[ドライング] ??? it doesn't not work with the fire theme, but feels kind of goofy as a name

RED-BURN[レッドバーン]

Love that they made a whole sentai team and a villain for them. I like that the heroes all have their own subtle details like the shape of their chest emblem, visor pattern, and headpieces beyond just being recolors.

ANT-RED[アントレッド]

ANT-BLUE[アントブルー]

ANT-YELLOW[アントイエロー]

DARK-ANTLAN[ダークアントラン]

<back to the master list>

This is Togan, my favorite monster from Monster Rancher Advance.  :D

He's an Antlan sub-breed called Lacoon that you get from combining an Antlan with a Momo or finding a password to generate him.  ^_^

:<  Sadly, they removed the Lacoon breed from Monster Rancher Advance 2.
