As the top [[Gym Leader]] in the [[Orange Crew]], he or she serves as the final obstacle before a {{pkmn|Trainer}} can become the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Orange League]].

In a Pokémon battle with the Head Leader, there are rules that the Leader must obey, the most prevalent one being the inability to switch out a Pokémon mid-battle while the challenger is free to do so at any time. During {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}'s battle with {{Ash}}, this rule gave Drake a disadvantage in the early stages when Ash chose {{AP|Squirtle}} to easily counter Drake's {{p|Onix}}. | In a Pokémon battle with the Head Leader, there are rules that the Leader must obey, the most prevalent one being the inability to switch out a Pokémon mid-battle while the challenger is free to do so at any time.
