Grant debuted in ''[[XY020|Breaking Titles at the Chateau!]]'', where {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} met him at the [[Battle Chateau]]. He was promoted to the {{tc|Grand Duke}} rank after his {{p|Onix}} won a battle against [[Viola]]'s {{p|Surskit}}. He was initially described as a "strong" Trainer, but he later revealed that he was actually the [[Cyllage City]] [[Gym Leader]], making Ash even more excited about his upcoming [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} with him. | |||
In ''[[XY025|Climbing the Walls!]]'', Grant accepted Ash's Gym challenge after the latter arrived at the [[Cyllage Gym]]. Unlike most Gym Leaders, he allowed Ash to use his entire team against him while he would only be using two Pokémon. After some hard battles, Ash emerged victorious and Grant awarded him the {{Badge|Cliff}}, telling Ash that he would like to battle him at the [[Battle Chateau]] sometime. | |||
He reappeared in a fantasy in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', when Ash was talking to [[Everett]] about the Gym Leaders that he had defeated in [[Kalos]] for him to be able to compete in the [[Lumiose Conference]]. | |||
In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Grant was seen in the [[Kalos Canyon]], watching [[Lysandre]]'s broadcast from [[Lumiose City]]. In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', Grant and Tyrunt were among those who helped destroy the [[Giant Rock]]. | |||
He reappeared in a flashback in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]''. | |||
Grant cannot resist scaling walls and | ====Character==== | ||
Grant cannot resist scaling walls, including the wall of the historic [[Battle Chateau]], simply for the challenge that climbing offers. He has built the [[Cyllage Gym]] with his rock-climbing hobby in mind, and readily challenges his opponents to scale the difficult rock walls up to the battlefield to test them. Grant believes that rock climbing offers a person, quite literally, a different perspective and access to a state of {{wp|enlightenment}}. He draws on his clarity of mind for strength and concentration during his [[Gym]] battles. He considers his team of {{t|Rock}} Pokémon to be what he refers to as a "wall", or a difficult challenge to overcome, using their incredible jumping abilities and {{m|Rock Tomb}} to truly test his opponents. | |||
Grant | Grant is good friends and has a rivalry with [[Viola]], the [[Santalune City]] [[Gym Leader]]. | ||

Grant | Grant debuted in ''[[PS563|Charging After Electrike]]''. He was first seen in [[Cyllage City]], helping [[Clemont]] find {{type|Electric}} Pokémon to power the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]] during a blackout. After witnessing {{kal|Grace}}, a famous {{p|Rhyhorn}} racer, being found and taken away by several {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s, the two were left wondering what happened. In ''[[PS572|Shooting Frogadier]]'', Grant found the Cycling Road in ruins after a helicopter was forced to make a crash landing. He got into an argument with the pilot, [[Cassius]], but eventually calmed down after Cassius agreed to pay for the damages. | ||
In ''[[PS577|Quilladin Stands]]'', Grant arrived in [[Laverre City]] alongside [[Valerie]] and [[Olympia]] to visit [[Korrina]], who was recuperating from injuries she sustained in a battle with [[Team Flare]]. They soon left to have a meeting with the other [[Kalos]] Gym Leaders to decide on how to deal with Team Flare. In ''[[PS579|Pyroar Breathes]]'', {{adv|Y}}, {{adv|Trevor}}, {{adv|Tierno}}, and {{adv|Shauna}} joined the Gym Leaders and traveled to [[Geosenge Town]] to confront Team Flare. Shortly after they arrived, the group witnessed the [[ultimate weapon]] emerging from underground like a flower bud. To prevent the weapon from blooming, the Gym Leaders and Y used their bodies to keep the petals in place by force but were met with interference by [[Bryony]]. The ultimate weapon eventually fired anyway, but the combined efforts of the Gym Leaders and their allies successfully weakened the weapon enough to make it unable to take any innocent lives. Using her newly-obtained {{p|Xerneas}}, [[Xerxer]], Y tried to destroy the ultimate weapon, but was interrupted by [[Malva]] and her {{p|Yveltal}}. Due to Xerneas and Yveltal being evenly matched, [[Xerosic]] announced that [[Lysandre]] ordered a ceasefire. Xerxer confirmed this and retreated, taking Y and the others with it. | |||
In ''[[PS582|Pinsir Glares]]'', [[Ramos]] revealed that Team Flare blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on the Gym Leaders and the [[Vaniville Town|Vaniville]] children. {{adv|X}} and his friends were advised to keep out of the public's eye while the Gym Leaders helped rebuild the damaged areas. In ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', Grant, Ramos, Valerie, Olympia, and [[Wulfric]] helped stop Team Flare's attempt to reactivate the ultimate weapon by defeating a group of Grunts that were stationed around Cyllage City. After Team Flare was fully defeated, Grant and his allies met with X and his friends at [[Lumiose City]] to congratulate them on their victory. | |||

'''Grant''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|Space Juggler}} expansion and the English {{TCG|Astral Radiance}} expansion, with artwork by [[kirisAki]].

Additionally, if it is in the player's discard pile, they can discard two other cards to return it to their hand. | |||

Main series
Grant debuted in Breaking Titles at the Chateau!, where Ash and his friends met him at the Battle Chateau. He was promoted to the Grand Duke rank after his Onix won a battle against Viola's Surskit. He was initially described as a "strong" Trainer, but he later revealed that he was actually the Cyllage City Gym Leader, making Ash even more excited about his upcoming Gym battle with him.
In Climbing the Walls!, Grant accepted Ash's Gym challenge after the latter arrived at the Cyllage Gym. Unlike most Gym Leaders, he allowed Ash to use his entire team against him while he would only be using two Pokémon. After some hard battles, Ash emerged victorious and Grant awarded him the Cliff Badge, telling Ash that he would like to battle him at the Battle Chateau sometime.
He reappeared in a fantasy in A League of His Own!, when Ash was talking to Everett about the Gym Leaders that he had defeated in Kalos for him to be able to compete in the Lumiose Conference.
In A Towering Takeover!, Grant was seen in the Kalos Canyon, watching Lysandre's broadcast from Lumiose City. In Rocking Kalos Defenses! and Forming a More Perfect Union!, Grant and Tyrunt were among those who helped destroy the Giant Rock.
He reappeared in a flashback in Till We Compete Again!.
Character
Grant cannot resist scaling walls, including the wall of the historic Battle Chateau, simply for the challenge that climbing offers. He has built the Cyllage Gym with his rock-climbing hobby in mind, and readily challenges his opponents to scale the difficult rock walls up to the battlefield to test them. Grant believes that rock climbing offers a person, quite literally, a different perspective and access to a state of enlightenment. He draws on his clarity of mind for strength and concentration during his Gym battles. He considers his team of Rock Pokémon to be what he refers to as a "wall", or a difficult challenge to overcome, using their incredible jumping abilities and Rock Tomb to truly test his opponents.
Grant is good friends and has a rivalry with Viola, the Santalune City Gym Leader.

Onix is Grant's first known Pokémon, which he used in a battle against Viola's Surskit at the Battle Chateau. Despite Surskit creating its signature ice battlefield to aid its speed, Onix was able to turn the tables on the Pond Skater Pokémon by using its masterful control of Rock Tomb to trap it and Rock Polish to increase its speed, keeping Surskit on the defensive. Eventually, Onix ended the battle by using its powerful Flash Cannon to knock Surskit out. It was seen in flashbacks in A PokeVision of Things to Come! and Coming Back into the Cold!.
Onix reappeared in Climbing the Walls! as the first Pokémon Grant used in his Gym battle against Ash; it went up against Froakie. Onix attempted to keep up with the Bubble Frog Pokémon, but Froakie's speed, in combination with Double Team, confused Onix. This left it open to attacks, which eventually allowed Froakie to knock it out with Water Pulse.
Onix's known moves are Rock Tomb, Flash Cannon, Rock Polish, and Iron Tail.

Tyrunt was the second Pokémon used by Grant in his Gym Battle against Ash. Tyrunt, unlike Froakie, was quick, and while Froakie was able to dodge Rock Tomb, it was easily overpowered by Tyrunt's Draco Meteor. Tyrunt next went up against Fletchling and managed to knock it out easily (but not before taking damage from a super-effective Steel Wing).
Finally, Tyrunt went up against Pikachu, who was able to dodge Tyrunt's attacks and even used the projectiles from Draco Meteor for momentum before managing to wedge a rock in Tyrunt's mouth and finally knocking it out with a direct hit from Thunderbolt.
It appeared again in Rocking Kalos Defenses! and Forming a More Perfect Union!, where it helped destroy the Giant Rock.
It reappeared in a flashback in Till We Compete Again!.
Tyrunt's known moves are Rock Tomb, Draco Meteor, Crunch, and Dragon Tail.

Pokémon Adventures
Grant debuted in Charging After Electrike. He was first seen in Cyllage City, helping Clemont find Electric-type Pokémon to power the Prism Tower during a blackout. After witnessing Grace, a famous Rhyhorn racer, being found and taken away by several Team Flare Grunts, the two were left wondering what happened. In Shooting Frogadier, Grant found the Cycling Road in ruins after a helicopter was forced to make a crash landing. He got into an argument with the pilot, Cassius, but eventually calmed down after Cassius agreed to pay for the damages.
In Quilladin Stands, Grant arrived in Laverre City alongside Valerie and Olympia to visit Korrina, who was recuperating from injuries she sustained in a battle with Team Flare. They soon left to have a meeting with the other Kalos Gym Leaders to decide on how to deal with Team Flare. In Pyroar Breathes, Y, Trevor, Tierno, and Shauna joined the Gym Leaders and traveled to Geosenge Town to confront Team Flare. Shortly after they arrived, the group witnessed the ultimate weapon emerging from underground like a flower bud. To prevent the weapon from blooming, the Gym Leaders and Y used their bodies to keep the petals in place by force but were met with interference by Bryony. The ultimate weapon eventually fired anyway, but the combined efforts of the Gym Leaders and their allies successfully weakened the weapon enough to make it unable to take any innocent lives. Using her newly-obtained Xerneas, Xerxer, Y tried to destroy the ultimate weapon, but was interrupted by Malva and her Yveltal. Due to Xerneas and Yveltal being evenly matched, Xerosic announced that Lysandre ordered a ceasefire. Xerxer confirmed this and retreated, taking Y and the others with it.
In Pinsir Glares, Ramos revealed that Team Flare blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on the Gym Leaders and the Vaniville children. X and his friends were advised to keep out of the public's eye while the Gym Leaders helped rebuild the damaged areas. In Xerneas Gives, Grant, Ramos, Valerie, Olympia, and Wulfric helped stop Team Flare's attempt to reactivate the ultimate weapon by defeating a group of Grunts that were stationed around Cyllage City. After Team Flare was fully defeated, Grant and his allies met with X and his friends at Lumiose City to congratulate them on their victory.

Aurorus is Grant's first known Pokémon. It was first seen accompanying its Trainer as they patrolled around Cycling Road only to find it in shambles from the crash of Cassius's helicopter. At Geosenge Town, it helped try to keep the ultimate weapon from opening with its weight. Later, it helped repair the damage done by the ultimate weapon firing on Kalos.
None of Aurorus's moves are known.
