If First flight was delayed, and couldn't catch next flight, does Pegasus airlines hold responsibility?

This is very interesting. There is no official answer as far as I can see not even in the Terms and Conditions or the Passenger rights, however the Connection Problems has this to say:

Do I need to check-in again for my transit/transfer flight?

If the ticket for your transit flight has just one PNR, you can follow the directions from our transfer staff and go straight to your transit flight without going through another check-in. Your baggage will be sent directly to your destination.

which should mean this is an airline which operates in the traditional manner and takes responsibility of you for the entirety of your flight. Compare to Wizz Air

Wizz Air does not operate connecting flights and cannot facilitate the transfer of passengers or their baggage to other flights (whether operated by Wizz Air or other carriers). For this reason, we cannot accept liability for any missed onward flights.

Edit: as a comment notes, EU 261 applies but that doesn't mean the airline is required to put you on the next flight... it does, however, mandate the airline to offer you a full refund and a free return to home if you are delayed more than five hours and simply they are better off if they get you to your destination instead. In practice, this means what you want because you start from the EU and have a single ticket.
