Pummelo Island

Verification House

This is where Pokémon Trainers who wish to participate in the Orange League verify their Badges and are permitted to enter. There is a front desk, that has a computer and a scanner to see if the Badges won are real. Off to the right is a stone Dragonite statue. One can also get information for the League here as well.

Pummelo Stadium

Main article: Pummelo Stadium

The main stadium where the Trainers who have collected all four Orange League Badges fight against the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader Drake. It looks like a large Roman stadium. The challenger and the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader battle in a Full Battle, a battle of six Pokémon each. All around Pummelo Stadium are statues of Dragonite. The stage can change to a rocky area with a pool in the middle and a sandy, desert-like battlefield.

During the battle, the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader is forbidden to change Pokémon, and when three Pokémon of any Trainer are defeated, a field change will occur. If the challenger should triumph over the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader, they will receive the Winner's Trophy and enter the Orange League Hall of Fame as an "Honored Trainer".

Palace of Victory

The Palace of Victory, also known as the Orange League Hall of Fame, is the place where the Trainers who have received the Winner's Trophy are documented with pictures of their Pokémon and themselves, and their handprints and footprints of their Pokémon and themselves. The Palace of Victory is a green dome building located next to Pummelo Stadium. When one first enters the building, there are two Dragonite statues on either side of the doorway. After going down the hall, there is a large circular area with pictures of all the Trainers and Pokémon who have defeated the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader.

Pokémon Center

Pummelo Island in The Electric Tale of Pikachu

The Electric Tale of Pikachu

Pummelo Island appeared in The Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader and Pikachu's Plan, where Ash competed in an Orange League tournament at Pummelo Stadium. Once he had won enough matches, he was granted the right to face Drake, the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader, in a six-on-six Full Battle. On the night before the battle, Ash encountered Team Rocket, who were too hungry to do anything to him, so he treated them to a meal. As thanks for the food and a place to sleep at, Team Rocket promised to cheer for Ash during his battle.

The Full Battle began with Ash taking on and defeating Drake's Ditto with Pikachu, after which he continued to defeat more of Drake's team, until Drake was left with just his strongest Pokémon, Dragonite. Dragonite defeated Squirtle and Charizard, but was ultimately felled by Pikachu, making Ash the winner and earning him a place in the Orange League Hall of Fame.
