Ghetis was just using that sentiment as a cover for another "World Domination with me as Supreme Ruler!" plot and using his son to capture Reshiram/Zekrom for sake of his own power, Team Plasma honestly didn't know head from ass what they were really leading up to, in the end.
Admittedly, they made you think at some points about the relationship between Pokemon and trainers, but hypocrisy was not foreign to them on this point, either.
OT: I'm going to have to go with Team Rocket for nostalgia purposes (and they were the most down-to-Earth group), followed by Team Aqua and finally Team Galactic. Team Aqua were damned pirates (and the second most down-to-Earth group), and Team Galactic was just amusing when Cyrus started ranting about becoming a "God" of his own dimension.
Yes, but despite the fact that their goal ended up a lie they knew what they were fighting for. Ghestis was using them, but they were still fighting for freeing Pokemon.
By using Pokemon in the same "enslaving" mannerism themselves that the trainers they were fighting against to "free" the Pokemon were as well, yeah.
If they had really wanted true freedom for all Pokemon from trainers (including themselves), instead of just to appease the Seven Sages, N and Ghetsis, they would have went the Team Rocket method and used non-Pokemon mechanical means of capturing Pokemon from trainers and releasing them elsewhere after escape. If you talked with many of the random Plasma grunts in the Plasma Castle before facing N and Ghetis, none of them were really willing to give up their own Pokemon either (they valued their relationships with their personal Pokemon teams), despite the potential of actually succeeding with their supposed goal. It was only trainers not part of Team Plasma that they viewed as being "slavers" to their Pokemon, after all.
