In the earlier episodes, he talks about one of his goals being to hunt down every single Ultra Beast and "Defeat" them, cause he believes they shouldn't "exist in this world" since they're a calamity to mankind. Do you think that means he wanted them dead, or just taken down?

Pretty much wants them dead. He was really edgy at the beginning of the Series.
 
Rivals are usually presented as more prejudiced than the main characters, who knows why, but in Gladion's case it's hard to blame him after what happened with Nihilego. I think it's more that he just hates them than that he has the goal to kill them, otherwise he would have taken advantage of the Ultra Guardians' incompetence to do so.

If it worries you, you can just make a headcanon that he let that hate go after what he saw during the Necrozma arc.
