Monsters need to be cared for and can take jobs or training sessions to increase their stats. Jobs earn money that can be used for the care and upkeep of monsters, while training sessions cost money, but yield greater stat increases. Players need to feed their monsters and give them rest to keep them healthy. More monsters can be obtained at the shrine or by combining two monsters to produce a creature that&#8217;s a fusion of the original creatures. Monsters age or can die in battle under extreme circumstances, so players will need to eventually replace their pets. It&#8217;s also possible to freeze a monster, which keeps it from aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arena battles take place in real time elimination rounds where players can battle one another or the computer. During battle, players can choose how to move their monster and what abilities it can use. Winning an arena tournament awards players with special items and\/or money. NPCs occasionally visit the ranch, offering special missions or store discounts. <em>Monster Rancher <\/em>also makes it possible for players to get special monsters by inserting a compact disc into their PlayStation during monster creation. Certain music CDs and games produce special monsters, while others guarantee that the player will get a specific monster type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"MonsterRancherPS1navgal\"><a href=\"#MonsterRancherPS1nav\">Gallery<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"267\" data-id=\"9483\" src=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9483\" srcset=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-1.jpg 360w, https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-1-300x223.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"359\" height=\"268\" data-id=\"9484\" src=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-2.jpg 359w, https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-2-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 359px) 100vw, 359px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"268\" data-id=\"9485\" src=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-3.jpg 360w, https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-3-300x223.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"267\" data-id=\"9486\" src=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-4.jpg 360w, https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-4-300x223.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"267\" data-id=\"9487\" src=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-5.jpg 360w, https:\/\/retromaggedon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Monster-Rancher-PS1-5-300x223.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"#MonsterRancherPS1nav\">Further Reading<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to learn more about Monster Rancher for the PS1?
