Hugh comes from Hiougi City and grew up alongside Kyouhei, with whom he received his first Pokémon. He's known for his passionate approach to Pokémon battles and training—strength and competitive spirit really drive him. What fans often note is his fierce devotion to his younger sister, which makes him stand out compared to other rivals you'd typically encounter.
His defining trait, though, is his grudge against Team Plasma. He takes their actions personally in a way that goes beyond typical antagonism, making his conflict with the organization feel genuinely motivated rather than just circumstantial.
