Etymology

The name Grant comes from "granite" (a type of rock) and/or "garnet" (a red gemstone) as well as "pomegranite".

His Japanese name, Zakuro, could come from 石榴石 (zakuroishi, garnet) and, following the plant-based naming of most characters, could also include 石榴 (zakuro, pomegranate). Both words also contain the characters 石, which means stone, referring to his specialization in Rock-type Pokémon.

Biography

X & Y arc

Grant and Clemont watching a few Team Flare Grunts surround Grace.

Clemont visited Grant in Cyllage City and received a call from Bonnie a Pokémon from the Prism Tower had escaped. Grant thought Clemont was a terrible brother to leave her little sister in charge in the wake of his absence. Before Clemont could reply, Grant recognized the famous Rhyhorn racer, Grace, who was taken away. Before Clemont went away, Grant gave him an article about Grace.

After Cassius and the kids got attacked by the Sky Trainers, Cassius' propeller broke down and he crashed the helicopter. Grant was shocked how much damage was caused and intimidated Cassius for destroying so much of property.

Later on, Grant visited the patients, along with Olympia and Valerie, in Laverre City. Grant promised to fight Team Flare and saw a note Ramos and Wulfric will be joining them soon. Trevor asked Cassius if he was friends with Grant. Cassius replied Grant calmed down after Cassius promised to pay the damages for crashing the helicopter.

Grant, Olympia and Valerie joined Ramos and Wulfric, then sailed on Wulfric's Avalugg to Laverre City. There, the children from Vaniville Town joined in the attack on Geosenge Town. Grant informed Wulfric those were the children from Vaniville Town. Upon seeing the Ultimate Weapon, everyone sent their Pokémon to push the "bud", with Grant sending his Tyrantrum and Aurorus. After Y managed to befriend Xerneas, everyone held Xerneas, including Grant, as Xerneas flew off, retreating from the site of battle.

Grant and the other Gym Leaders fought against Team Flare, eliminating their presence in other cities before they went to the Pokémon Village. In the end, Grant came with Professor Sycamore to congratulate the group of Vaniville Town for defeating Team Flare.
