Monster Rancher - Story

Story

Before the world's continents broke up into pieces, a huge disaster hit the world. The world was very empty so new lifeforms filled the emptiness. However, new life forms brought new troubles, but humans were not trusted with the new lifeforms so they were sealed in "disc stones". Many years have passed since then and humans were finally trusted with the secret of "disc stones". Today people still continue searching for these missing "disc stones" to unlock the lifeforms within.

It is said that the "disc stones" are almost impossible to find among the ancient ruins. It is said that one monster is trapped inside each one. One day a group of workers excavating the ancient ruins happened to dig up one of these mythical disc stones. The worker who first discovered a disc stone took the disc to the Monsters' Temple. There the priests, using the ancient methods, unlocked the monster inside the disc stone. In a place where ranchers and monsters coexisted peacefully, the battle of the monsters began. As time passed these monster battles became extremely popular, and monster breeding became the standard pastime of the land. Eventually disc stones were found around the entire world. Now ranchers across the globe come together and enter unto battle.
