- This is the current route used in Pokemon Yellow Any% Glitchless, which uses Ice Beam instead of Blizzard. This guide assumes you know general movement through the route (which trainers to fight, how to get through safari zone, etc.), and it's not possible to write down everything about how to move, so it is highly recommended to watch a run using this route before attempting a run (two examples here: https://youtu.be/3cT6Ikssn2s https://youtu.be/90VmIySFnyY )
