If the Tame Beast gem is [[corrupted]], the process of conversion into the Summon Beast gem will remove the corrupted tag and any associated corruption outcomes. The one exception to this is a change in gem quality, which is retained despite the corrupted tag being removed.

through beneficial or detrimental aura effects, guaranteed ailments or ground effects, or other buffs/debuffs such as Temporal Bubble. Players are limited to a maximum of one companion of any type at a time.

Rare beasts can easily be found by resetting at the checkpoints near the Troubled Camp in Infested Barrens (2 rare monsters) or Jungle Ruins (rare Quadrilla). Some monsters are not tameable, such as the Spire Burrower in Trial of the Sekhemas.

Summon Beast is account-bound; this prevents the item from being traded to or picked up by other players. It can still be stored in your stash and transferred to your other characters.
