Not when he first appeared. He was definitely evil, and better fitting of the title of pure evil as he was the physical embodiment of the opposite of harmony. Being bored because you don't have friends is not an excuse for torturing people. The issue wasn't that he had no conscience to tell him what's wrong, it's that he simply didn't care because he was evil. He was still pretty evil in Keep Calm and Flutter-on, Fluttershy just put way more effort into getting him to feel anything about anyone other than himself than anyone put into any other villain. Even after that he still can't be considered good, you're just making up excuses because he's been on the heroe's side for so long.

How does Cozy Glow cowering make her good? That's fear, not remorse. Honestly she's the evilest of the three. She's a manipulative sociopath who attempted to betray even the other villains, who had learned to trust each other. Are you really basing Chrysalis being pure evil solely based on her being spiteful? This comes as a shock to people who haven't studied game theory, but spite is actually an altruistic trait, and altruistic traits are generally considered to be what defines good character. Now Chrysalis's spite is a selfish sort based on pride, but in her defense she did lose everything she had.
