  I think shen megami tensi didn’t before them. Dragon quest might have, but I’m not sure about that one.

    Can confirm, DQ5 (1992) had monster catching. Not sure if I’d call it summoning, but Pokemon took clear inspiration from that game in particular.

    Digital Debil Story Megami Tensei 1989 beats Pokemon, so Atlus should 100% sue Nintendo to give them a taste of their own medicine.
