Gronky was essentially one of the resulting creations caused by Kraid's attempting to collect a glitched powerup, combined with the glitch archive area of Zebeth. Crocomire Hunter found him wandering around, and took him as a pet. However, Gronky (having been "tamed" all of 10 minutes prior) attacked Samus' glitched body. He was then left on Zebeth while everyone else was transfered to ZR388 so Kabutroid could clean up the planet. Gronky survived this glitch cleanup, and ran off. He was later recaptured by Crocomire Hunter, only to escape once again shortly thereafter. After quite a lengthy time of gronking at Boxy and Unspawny for reasons yet unknown, he (or perhaps she?) has been seen with a baby gronky nearby.
