Nintendo and The Pokémon Company were granted a US patent related to summoning characters and auto-battling mechanics, similar to features in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, but the patent is specific to certain automated battle and movement options rather than general summoning or battling.

The Necromancer class in Diablo 4 is known for its summoning capabilities, and this guide provides an overview of the undead minions that can be unlocked through the Book of the Dead mechanic.

Sacrifice perks provide bonus passives but prevent summoning of minions from that category. The guide recommends Reapers for Skeletal Warriors, Cold Mages or Bone Mages for Skeletal Mages, and Iron Golem for Golems.
