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.
