Was Ghetsis actually trying to kill the player character?

If you have played BW2 you know that Ghetsis told B/W kyurem to freeze us with glaciate. Glaciate cannot freeze a Pokemon so was he trying to kill the player or was he just delusional enough to think glaciate will freeze you?

There are five different possible answers to this:

He is surreal.

Glaciate works differently on Humans than it does on Pokémon.

Glaciate deals with people slowly, so we would be left alive to watch him rule before finally perishing.

He is now so unbalanced that he no longer retains his senses, so he figures he would freeze you, which would actually do away with you

He does not actually know how powerful a move Glaciate is

Although all of these are myths, there is one fact that Ghetsis is not in a correct state of mind in BW2, literally. This may be the reason and is what I find most truthful, although you never know.

Ghetsis is a very very evil man, as shown by his relentless quest to conquer and his brutal deception of many, including the “good” team plasma members and his own innocent son, N. he is also a very wise man. He has successfully formed, controlled and reformed a massive criminal organization, and has even devised a cruel way to control an extremely powerful Pokemon in kyurem. Considering that you were a massive threat to his plans, how evil he is, and that his intelligence would suggest he has at least decent knowledge of Pokemon moves, he was in all likely hood trying to kill you, though as Pokemon is rated e for everyone, this isn’t directly said.
