Still it's weird that Nintendo patents that now when the first Pokemon game came out almost 30 years ago. Even more so if you believe some internet comments saying that Dragon Quest had done it before.

Well, we'll see how it goes.

Dragon Quest Monster has been on every Nintendo handheld from the Gameboy color to the Switch. They don't have the  Pokeball catching mechanic tho, You give the monsters meat to get them to join you. In Digimon you scan the monsters with your digivice, no pokeball throwing either.
