This one you don't necessarily capture, but you find summon stones in chests. Once summoned you do train them up. And your main hero is basically a weakling until you gather enough stat boosting items.

hey, quick note, it's ooblets, not sure why the name says ooblits even tho the url is correct. I've been following this one since announced. Hope they take as much as they need, style seems interesting and they made a few changes so lets see how it turns out.
Not quite the same, but don't forget about animal crossing, harvest moon and similar. There was one for GBA which could not find nor remember the exact name, but anyways those are more the farmer/sim type not quite fighting you're looking for, sorry.
Good thread!
Edit:there was one for SEGA, there was djinns that allow you the char to use powers, like freeze water, levitate boulders, etc, I can't quite remember the name, I'm thinking shining force but that's probably another title. There was also another one which allowed your crew members to fuse in chambers, aka dragon ball ones. Still, not what you're looking for, not in Steam either. sigh
Edit: Remembered one more, but it's for the PS2 I think, google it and tell me if it doesn't fit the list! Rogue Galaxy! it's rpg, customize chars, make/smith weapons, capture insects with bait/lure in cages and make them fight, level up and even mate! oh boy it's a huge game! wish they make a HD remake in PC, I'd play it for ages!
hmm, I don't think I can link a video here (isn't mine, just googled one for you) but think sharing it's like promoting, so nope.. sorry

That is the majority, to be fair it is probably a lot easier to make a lot of different monster designs in an 8bit graphics style than what is in 3D as you will need to create the meshes, textures and everything will need to have an animation cycle, so yeah would take a loooooot longer.

I love the monster capture/training genre (cough cough Pokemon games), but its quite difficult to find such games on PC and even more so on Steam, please mention/link more games with this type of setup (hell it just needs monster capturing and using in battle to qualify really).
The following games I am aware of that share this "mechanic" PS TemTem looks bloody amazing
TemTem
Monster Crown
Monster Sanctuary
Robot Farm
World of Final Fantasy
Nights of Azure
Minimon
Digimon Masters Online
Ludoria
Ooblets
The Capture Worlds
Siralim
Siralim 2
Siralim 3
HEARTBEAT
Creatures Inc
ARK Survival Evolved
Conan Exiles
Volseons
Ghostlords
Soul Locus
ReLegend
Unleashed
Zanzarah
Norpon
Notemon
Disc Creatures
Xander the Monster Morpher Universe Breaker
Honorable Mentions (for games that have monster capture or/and training mechanics but it isn't what the game is built around)
Starbound
Octopath Traveler
