Minions and chocobo's fighting with you.

That's a quest available from level 30 that you have to do to allow you to summon your Grand Company chocobo as a 'Companion' in battle - the quest is called 'My Feisty Little Chocobo' and is given by Ducotte in Camp Tranquil in the South Shroud. Once you've done this quest you have to purchase bunches of gyshal greens and use them by mapping them to your hotbar to call your chocobo out in the field.

You're limited to only being able to call your chocobo as a companion while in 'outside' areas - you cannot use them in an instanced area like a dungeon or while doing a solo duty (like a story fight) - you're forced to withdraw them before you can enter.

As for minions, they're just for show and have no bearing on gameplay at all. They're just a fun little thing to have next to you.

But some of them have what are essentially minion-emotes of reacting to the fight. It's fun to see my cute little Coeurl Kitten puff up his tail and swipe his claws towards some big mob I'm fighting. lol
But yeah, that's still just a purely cosmetic thing.

Hmm... About it, I came up with a doubt... There're three classes that a Chococo could be: Defender, Attacker and Healer. How is this choosen? And can it be changed during the game, just as we change class?
