Drake (Orange League)
Drake (Japanese: ユウジ Yūji) is the leader of the Orange League. Trainers who defeat him in a Full battle at Pummelo Stadium receive the Winner's Trophy and enter the Orange League Hall of Fame.
Although the dub implies that Drake is merely a fifth Gym Leader in the Orange League, the Japanese version specifically uses the title Head Leader to denote his importance. Additionally, Drake is not necessary a League Champion, either, given that it is not clarified whether or not he ever actually had to defeat a previous Head Leader in order to take the title.
Ash Ketchum was the first person to defeat Drake in Orange League history.
Regardless of his English name and his affinity for Dragon-type Pokémon, Drake apparently has no relation to either Drake of the Hoenn League nor Lance of the Indigo League.
