He himself was adorned in spooky, vampire-esque attire. He apparently hailed from a family that had fallen into disgrace, and he turned to gambling to make ends meet. Grimsley did not pay much mind to losing to other challengers, as he believed that the true warrior spent his time pondering the next battle. He considered life to be a serious battle in which one had to use the tools they were given, and he believed that it was better for one to master what they had than to complain about what their opponents had. Grimsley also pondered the ambiguous distinction between good and bad ways to win. He considered Pokémon battles to be proof that one is really living. |
In ''[[Pokémon: Black and White Versions]]'', he was challenged and defeated by [[N]] and later [[Hilbert/Hilda]], which led him to briefly remark about the trainers coming one after another. When he was beaten by Hilbert/Hilda, he told them that their Pokémon were shining brilliantly in the glow of victory and then apathetically resigned himself to being the guy who lost. He could later be challenged to rematches. Two years later, he was still part of the Elite Four in ''[[Pokémon: Black and White Versions 2|Black and White 2]]'', and this time he was challenged and defeated by [[Nate/Rosa]]. While his room had a similar refined aesthetic, it was now changed into a platform suspended in midair by chains. | In ''[[Pokémon: Black and White Versions]]'', he was challenged and defeated by [[N]] and later [[Hilbert/Hilda]], which led him to briefly remark about the trainers coming one after another.

He was no longer a member of Unova's Elite Four and instead traveled to the [[Alola Islands]], where he took a liking to [[Mantine]] Surfing and became one of the highest-scoring competitors in the sport. The player could meet him at Route 15, where he would add [[Sharpedo]] to [[Sun/Moon]]'s Ride Pager after they won a coin toss and gave them some advice about riding Sharpedo. At one point in ''Ultra Sun''/''Ultra Moon'', he mentioned that he had lost everything at one point and initially wandered Alola's shores in despair before he found solace in a new role, riding the waves with Mantine and Sharpedo and teaching others what it means to ride. Grimsley also took part in battles at the Battle Tree. |
