>>53905285Think the way he wanted it to come out was that he kills people only when he goes berserk, and that happens as an unconcious reaction, beyond Grim's control. He kills people not because he wants to, but because of a condition he never asked for, becoming a slave to his own being.
With that in mind, everything that comes after is fucking stupid, and going off that premise he could do so much better with such a character.
Like Grim isolating himself because he is an actual menace to society and a real danger to all those around him; being capably to feel regret and remorse over his actions, knowing he has no right at forgiveness, yet still trying to do what he can for the people around him (again, by isolating himself from the rest of the world, or sure the fucking bakery)
And ontop of that, the comeback. His ace/partner is that "apex of the Tyranitar species" or whatever the fuck that means, leaving room for a character close/sympathetic to Grim that is also capable of safely being around him. Working on the relationship between the trainer and his trusty pokemon, he could work towards bettering himself and gradually regaining control over his own life, learning to control this "berserk" state, or even renounce it completely (also his mons reaction to Grim going berserk by themselves going berserk is idiotic). This way his strength, both physical, mental and as a pokemon trainer, could come from the herculean efforts he made to seize back his fate, and not some "hurr durr grandma fucked a garchomp" asspull.
The end result of this (in a more refined manner) would be a capable and genuinely kindhearted (whatever that means) trainer, with his own demons in the past, whose crimes will never be paid, but who can ultimately look forward to life and the day of tomorrow.
Hey maybe this is the good route, and the bad route is the eighteen billion forms of Tyranitar and Grim's inability of bringing a scarfed flying type mon due to the original writer's ineptitude.
