Series lore and name

The great argon lizard is a giant-sized, tubbier version of an argon lizard. The great argon lizard is known for turning in a clumsy circle and using its powerful tail attack, which strikes all of its opponents simultaneously. It is also known for dropping a rare gemstone called the "Great Big Argon Heart" upon its defeat. Naturally, they originate from Argonia.

Up to four monsters are active with four more in reserve, and synthesis is the main way to raise a keeper: combine two monsters from level 10 and the child inherits the parents' talents, with a Plus Value that can lift it past their rank.
