How to read this index
Families
The index groups monsters into the families the Dragon Quest Wiki records for them: Slime / Dragon / Beast / Bird / Plant / Nature / Bug / Material / Demon / Undead / Aquatic / Humanoid / Elemental / Machine. These are the series' long-running family groupings, and they are not the same list as the eight families The Withered World uses for its own roster. Square Enix has published English names for five of those eight — Slime, Dragon, Nature, Beast and Material — has confirmed two more only in Japanese (the demon and zombie families), and has never named the eighth. Where Square Enix has published a family for a monster in this game, it has so far matched the series family, so the two taxonomies are kept separate here rather than merged.
Index numbers
DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS has no official numbered dex, so the # on each entry is this index's own sequence in alphabetical order. It is a citation aid — useful for telling two similarly named monsters apart, and for spotting what changed since the page was last rebuilt. It is never an in-game value.
Ranks and synthesis
Square Enix has said the roster spans nine ranks, from G up to X, and that synthesis fuses two monsters from level 10 into a child that inherits their talents — with a Plus Value that can lift a child above its parents' rank. Ranks are not published for the full roster, so this index carries no rank column rather than guessing at one. Entries are added as more is confirmed.
Accuracy
Entries are transcribed from the Dragon Quest Wiki's records rather than copied from another fan site, so they can be re-verified at any time. Fields the source does not carry are left out, not estimated. Last rebuild: 2026-10-12.
