If you prefer your monster battlers a little less cutesy-pie than Pokemon, you might want to check out Dragon Quest Monsters: Jokerlinks from Square Enix.

Okay, this is basically Pokemon in fantasy costume: gather, train and fight monsters in a sprawling RPG, but if it's Square Enix it can't be that bad. DSFanboy deliver their verdict, giving the game a score of 7.5/10. They write:
"Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker is a large game that you can genuinely sink some time into. As we've said, in the end we couldn't help but compare it to Pokemon, which has ruled the genre for quite some time. It does a lot of the things that Pokemon does well, but fails to do them all. The controls could've been better, the camera can be a nuisance and the constant battling can really start to drag you down."
So, evidently Pokemon is the better of the two, but if you want more more more monster battling action, this might be a nice additional title for you.
