Welcome to the official web page for the Citrus League!

The Citrus League is the premier Inter-Regional Pokemon league, currently operating in eight different cities across four regions. Currently in our third season, the Citrus League plays a double round-robin league phase (awarding the Lemon-Lime Trophy to the first place finisher), followed by a playoff phase where teams compete for the Orange Bowl Trophy. The league also operates a preseason knockout competition called the Yuzu Cup. Meet the teams of the Citrus League below!

The Skycats had a lengthy history in various Hoenn based competitions and were the club that pushed the hardest for the formation of an Inter-Regional league. This helped birth the Citrus League, and the Cats also won the first ever trophy in league history, taking home the Lemon-Lime Trophy in Season 1. The Skycats have a relatively small but passionate fanbase and embrace a musical atmosphere at home games; the Pride of Sootopolis is the league's largest marching band.

Owned and operated by a famous steakhouse tycoon, the Sizzle Kicks are a younger franchise formed specifically for the Citrus League. Though the management was initially lacking in matchday experience, the Kicks adjusted quickly and have put out solid, competitive teams. The best gameday food on the circuit is a given, and the Kicks are emblematic of the "fans first" approach to running a team, leading the way in promotions and theme nights.

The Steely Hooligans began their life in Hammerlocke as the Raging Perrserkers, but found a new home down the road in Spikemuth after Season 1. The move allowed the club a lot more breathing room, and their new home city embraced the rockstar personas of players and staff. The Hooligans made it to the semifinals in their first year in Spikemuth, proving that there is substance behind the style. Their rivalry with Hammerlocke, owing to its old intracity roots, is perhaps the fiercest in the league.

The Virbank Distortion are bringing their own brand of punk rock to the Citrus League. Taking the place of the CyBirdz, the Distortion promise a unique gameday atmosphere and a lineup that will get you on your feet. The only question is can they make it to the Orange Bowl in Rocktober?

The Walkers franchise joined at the start of Season 2, and quickly became known for their unconventional style of play. From the team construction to the tactics to the blissful vibes inside the stadium, there is certainly no team quite like the Walkers.

The Hammerlocke Bronze Wyrms were the first franchise contacted by the Skycats during the formation of the Citrus League, and have emerged as the league's dominant force. The Wyrms won the first three Orange Bowls, and also collected two Lemon-Lime Trophies during that time. The "Wyrm Roar" that echoes throughout Hammerlocke Stadium after a victory has become the stuff of nightmares for visiting teams.

The Anville Roundhouse Nights have inherited the coaching staff and some of the roster from the Acro-Bats, and come into the league as serious contenders. As their previous incarnation they won multiple Yuzu Cups, and reached an Orange Bowl and a semifinal in the past two seasons. Thanks to Anville's status as a public transport hub, fans are excited to be able to easily visit a new city on the circuit. Expect the Knights to compete for a title right away, and with great support to boot.

The Oreburgh Drill Bits will be making their full debut this season, having previously been an affiliate of the Canalave Dreams before taking over that club's big league license. The Drill Bits are still owned by the Iron Island Mining Company, and have inherited the history of the old Canalave team in the record books. The local miners make up the most boisterous and vocal supporters section, and the club leans heavily into miner iconography. Most famously, the food of choice on gameday in Oreburgh is warm stew, just like the miners (past and present) traditionally eat during meal breaks. The Drill Bits (then called the Dreams) had their greatest success so far in Season 2, finishing second in the table and ultimately losing in the Orange Bowl.
