This trope is when they form a bond with the "X" that "changes them forever, usually starting them down the path to adulthood."


** Played with when it comes to Kat and Gus, [[ABoyAndHisX a young girl and her huge sentry bot]] who can be met roaming the Commonwealth in a random encounter. Sentry bots may not be monsters in the traditional sense, but since every single one of them is basically a BossInMookClothing, the trope applies regardless.

Unlike most of his team, Skeletor actually seems fond of Panthor, and has been known to scratch his ear. This actually carried over to the 2002 reboot, with a Skeletor that was much more ruthless and cruel but still loved his big, purple kitty.

A character keeps as a pet what would normally be considered (and the same species may be in every other instance) a bloodthirsty monster. Such a creature [[FluffyTheTerrible may be given a deceptive name]]. A person with such a pet may be a FluffyTamer. May be a TeamPet.
