In terms of appearance, the Grinade is identical to the [[Rockbomb]], but a yellowish shade.  


'''Grinades''' are generally the weakest of their [[Material family|rocky]] relations. These smiling yellow bold boulders must rely on physical attacks, since they have yet to develop the spark that allows them to explode or self-sacrifice  like their brethren. They allow adventurers to let their guards down and then save up their strength to launch themselves at their foes, full force by using their '''focus strength''' skill. Sometimes they just simple spend a turn just staring, and others they find something funny enough to blindly fling themselves at the enemy, cackling madly.

Grinade appears as a C-rank monster of the Inorganic family as part of the limited ''Dragon Quest VII'' event. It can be recruited on the first floor of the stages based on [[The Tallest Tower|the Tallest Tower in the Whole Wide World]]. The grinade can also be recruited as the player climbs to the 6th and 11th floors, each with floor increasing in difficulty but having a higher chance of recruitment. Grinade can also participate in [[Kiefer]]'s Battle Road as a party member.

Grinade is taken from grin, a type of smile, and grenade, an explosive used in warfare. This naming is presently a misnomer, as none of the grinade's current appearances show it able to sacrifice itself in any way, unlike its relatives, save for its appearance in ''XI'' where it can use [[Self Destruct]] during the sidequest involving the [[Rainbow Mines]].
