Can anybody tell me how to get shields for my monsters when battling? New to this game

Certain monsters have skills that can grant shields, and relics can grant shields. Take note that shields given through skills can be removed by positive effect removal, while shields given through relics cannot.

Not all monsters have shields, some have depending on their role in the battlefield. As it was mentioned above, there are Shield relics too, you can find them in-game through different events such as Monsterwood, Mazes, Progressive Islands, 72-h Challenges, Daily Missions, but you'll need to be at least lvl 30 to be able to unlock the Forge, meanwhile the ones you get will be kept in the Storage. Other way is getting monsters that grant Shield for itself or for your allies, if you're starting, General Atum is a good one from the Team Shop
