Hugh went through all of that trouble fighting an terrorist organization to save his sister's pokemon, who was basically another family member to him after the lost of his grandfather. That pokemon has sentimental value and any characters in this series, Ash especially, would've done the same thing. That's what makes Hugh based. He's not some pansy quitter that's like, "Oh well, it's just a route 1 shitmon. Let me go catch another one." He overcame his weakness and pursued his goal to the end. Self-centered my ass.
