Needs a page but could it be Jibaku Kun/Twelve World Story/ Bucky The Incredible Kid?

Yes, exactly! Thanks.
I remember that anime! It's a cult classic here in Brazil. Actually the round little thing was a spirit that each of the main characters had, and they had the power to explode when they were thrown at things. The hero was a Vegeta kind of kid, in which he was prideful and kind of a dick. He wanted to rule the world by being the greatest of the guardians of the 12 worlds (which were actually more like continents, and he was the guardian of the first one).

I remember the intro to a late nineties anime, probably a Shōnen series, with artstyle a bit similar to Toriko. Thing is, it was trying to cash in on the Pokemon craze, so the main character had a Mon, a creepy-looking circular thing with a human face and tiny arms and legs, kind of like a miniature version of Marvel's MODOK. I think holding it gave the guy fighting powers. I never actually watched the thing because it looked so weird for my childhood self, but now I grew curious.
