just off of the top of my head, caro and french sometimes feature pawn pushes like g4, h4, f4. however those are much later in the game and impossible to transpose from the grob.
What are all the opening positions that (at some point) have the g pawn pushed to g4?
Grob is the best opening you #%$&#, blasphemy!!!
1. G4 - the one and only
I would never betray the grurch, I'm simply asking for Grob variations that have been named incorrectly
No joke the grob is the opening I have the worst record against. I suspect this wouldn't be the case if I faced it more often than 1 out of 500 games.

i like grob
contrary to what many say, the grob isn't actually that awful. Although at top level chess it's horrible, most don't know much theory, and a strong grob player can achieve a good position.
I've been playing G4 in many English opening games, I think those are more likely to transpose from the Grob
There are probably thousands of such positions, if you include all the reasonably sound variations of the Sicilian that have a g2-g4 Pawn push.
I want to know this because I want to know what positions the Grob can transition into for something I'm working on related to the Grob
The English can transpose to g4, when h3 is played to kick the bishop away with tempi.

The Grob is literally the only way White can lose by force on the first move. It’s the single worst opening in the game for White.
1. Nc3 e5 2. Nf3 nc6 3. D4 exd4 4. Nxd4 bc5 5. Nf5 Qf6 6. G4!!
