Pummelo Stadium (Japanese: カンキツスタジアム Kankitsu Stadium) is the main landmark of Pummelo Island. The leader of Pummelo Stadium is Drake, the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader. All four Orange League Gym Badges are required to challenge him. Trainers who defeat him in a Full Battle receive the Winner's Trophy and are accepted into the Orange League Hall of Fame, effectively becoming Pokémon League Champions.
In the anime
Pummelo Stadium appeared in three episodes of the anime: A Shipful of Shivers, Hello, Pummelo!, and Enter the Dragonite.
The stadium sits atop a hill overlooking the city. A statue of a Dragonite, the guardian of Pummelo Island, is situated at the top of the stadium. It is a Colosseum with lights and a scoreboard, its size rivaling even the stadium where the Indigo Plateau Conference is held. In the Winner's Cup Competition, whenever three of either Trainer's Pokémon are unable to battle, the field is changed.
Pummelo Stadium first appeared in a flashback in A Shipful of Shivers, when a Haunter created an illusion of its Trainer, the Captain, winning the Orange League three hundred years before, using his Gastly against another Trainer's Beedrill.
Ash challenged Drake for a Full Battle on his journey through the Orange Archipelago. Ash competed on a rock and water field and then a sand field. The long match went to Ash, and he and his Pokémon were honored in the Palace of Victory. It wouldn't seem that Ash had any obligation to take over as the Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader and defend the title against challengers as Drake does, however. After accepting the Winner's Trophy, he continued on to the Johto region to compete there.

Ditto was Drake's first Pokémon used against Ash. With its Transform, it was able to completely mimic Pikachu and match all of its attacks. However, in the end Pikachu was able to outpace Ditto due to Ditto's physical condition remaining the same despite its transformation. It was defeated after Pikachu managed to stand up and knock Ditto to the ground with its tail after a prolonged race using Agility. It reappeared in a flashback in Enter The Dragonite.
Ditto's only move is Transform.
Ditto has also used Thunder*, Thunder Shock*, Agility*, and Quick Attack* via Transform.

Onix was Ash's second opponent. Squirtle started the battle with a Water Gun, but Onix dodged it using Dig. Ash then decided to send Squirtle into the water only to be stopped a couple feet shy by Onix emerging from underground which knocked Squirtle into the air before using Bind. Squirtle escaped Bind by using Hydro Pump. After using a Skull Bash on the now weak Onix, Ash's Squirtle won the battle. It reappeared in a flashback in Enter The Dragonite.

Drake's third Pokémon against Ash was Gengar. Ash initially sent out Tauros, but after a failed attempt at Fissure which allowed Gengar to counter with Confuse Ray, Ash then switched for Lapras. Lapras avoided a Hypnosis attack by diving underwater where upon surfacing both Lapras and Gengar launched their respective Ice Beam and Night Shade attacks simultaneously which resulted in a massive explosion knocking out both Pokémon.
Gengar's known moves are Confuse Ray, Hypnosis, and Night Shade.

Drake's fourth Pokémon faced off against Ash's Tauros. Tauros's Fissure didn't work due to the sand field's cushioning effect. However, after surviving Venusaur's Solar Beam, Tauros was able to defeat Venusaur with a Take Down attack.
Venusaur's known moves are Solar Beam and Vine Whip.

- Main article: Drake's Dragonite
Knowing a variety of attacks including Hyper Beam, Ice Beam, and Dragon Rage along with 7 more, Dragonite was Drake's powerhouse and Drake's sixth and final Pokémon to be used in battle. Dragonite was used to battle against four of Ash's Pokémon - defeating his Charizard, Squirtle, Tauros, and even breaking from battle to send Team Rocket blasting off, before finally being defeated by a close-range Thunder from Ash's Pikachu.
In the manga
In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga
Pummelo Stadium appeared in The Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader and Pikachu's Plan, where Ash challenged Drake after earning all four Orange League Gym Badges. After defeating Drake's Ditto with his Pikachu, Ash proceeded to defeat four other members of his team, forcing Drake to use his strongest Pokémon, Dragonite. The Dragon Pokémon proceeded to easily defeat Ash's Squirtle, and eventually also Ash's Charizard. However, Pikachu was able to defeat it by using Thunder inside its mouth, earning Ash the title of the Orange League Champion.
