i believe grusha is a self preservant 4w5. although he seems like a reclusive 5 at first, his motivations don't seem to align with any of 5's variants. i feel like the following quotes match him very well. if anyone has any other ideas regarding his character, i'd love to discuss it some sp4 descriptions from naranjo + how they relate to grusha "Instead of being a very tearful person, the sufferer is one who does not complain and avoids crying in front of others, and who has learned to swallow a lot and endure pain without blinking.” grusha tries to brush off how devastating his accident was to him. hes not shy in mentioning his previous success, but he tries to not dote on it too long, and instead turns his focus to battling pokemon to cope with what he lost. "In this subtype, the longing and effort to achieve what is distant brings the feeling of being able to obtain that wonderful thing that was lost. The tenacious pretends to stop being lacking and free themselves from the bad image through a constant effort." grusha isnt a gym leader because he wants to be, its so he can make up for the previous accomplishment he had with snowboarding. he thinks being a gym leader or champion will somehow fill the void that was left in his heart. “Well, this is my job now… so don’t take what I’m about to do personally.” "Much of the tension is fueled by the fact that the effort you make is meant to overcome a deficiency that is at the base of the trait and is really just invented. Therefore, this deficiency cannot be solved by concrete achievements. That is why, while this subject is willing to do whatever it takes to get whatever it takes to give him legitimacy (titles, work ...), as his devaluation system continues to operate, what he gets will not be enough, he will not deny his deficiency, he will not save him from his lack, nor will it move you from your attachment to it. … Let us not forget that he strives to be saved from the lack in which he feels flawed." pokemon battling will never fully fulfill grusha. even as the highest level gym leader, hes not attached to battling. he says he wants to be a champion and achieve success, but would that really make him happy? as mentioned before, his real passion lays in snowboarding and hes only trying to redirect his emotion into recreating what he once had
