Gurkinn is revealed to have met {{adv|X}} when the boy was a small child. After saving X from a couple of intrusive reporters Gurkinn gave X a [[Key Stone|Mega Ring]] because of the bond X shared with his [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Kangaskhan]]. In addition to X, Gurkinn has also given Key Stones to 17 other people chosen to be Mega Evolution Successors, including Korrina, [[Diantha]], {{adv|Y}}, {{adv|Blue}}, [[Steven Stone]], and three unnamed men.


In the present, Gurkinn is attacked by his granddaughter Korrina because she demanded to know why he gave X a Mega Ring when he doesn't seem to care about having a successor ceremony for being given the ring. Before Gurkinn can fully explain, they are attacked by a {{p|Trevenant}}. Korrina immediately goes to battle it, but soon realizes that the attack is only a distraction to separate her from her grandfather. Back outside, Gurkinn is interrogated by [[Emma|Essentia]] for information about Mega Evolution. After Gurkinn gives her the info, Essentia immediately begins attacking him. Gurkinn retaliates with his Mega {{p|Heracross}} and manages to hold Essentia back. He quickly realizes that while they were battling, Essentia began having her {{p|Trevenant}} cover the entire Tower of Mastery in its roots. He calls Korrina over and tells her that in order to protect the secrets of Mega Evolution, they must destroy the Tower of Mastery. Although reluctant, Korrina assists her grandfather in activating the Tower of Master's self-destruct switch, causing the entire building to collapse on itself. They manage to get out in time, but Gurkinn muses over the fact that with the tower gone, the secrets of a {{p|Diancie|certain Pokémon}} will be lost with it.

The captured townspeople and Korrina are taken to a [[Laverre City]] hospital to recuperate. Gurkinn begins training Y and her friends so that they can get stronger. He notes Y's strength and begins to question passing his Key Stone down to her. Later, at the [[Lost Hotel]], Gurkinn officially makes Y a Mega Evolution successor. He gives Y a Mega Ring outfitted with the Key Stone from his Mega Glove.

In ''[[PAORAS20|Omega Alpha Adventure 20]]'', Steven revealed that he received his [[Key Stone]], including the three Key Stones he gave to {{adv|Ruby}}, {{adv|Sapphire}}, and {{adv|Emerald}}, from Gurkinn. Upon hearing this, the [[Meteor Village]] {{OBP|Elder|Meteor Village}} speculates that Gurkinn may actually be a descendant of a [[Draconid people|Draconid]] that moved to [[Kalos]].
