No Save & Quit (Bombs) (PAL)

A memory card is not needed to run this route.

This route is intended for the NTSC-U or PAL Gamecube release of the game, which is slower than the JP route, but omits the difficult Wolfos Superjump. For the JP route, click here. Because having blue rupee text available in Arbiter's Grounds is necessary for Poe Gate Clip, playing on French (PAL) is recommended: no rupees are needed for Fyer on French, so it's easier to avoid accidentally getting blue rupee text earlier in the run because blue rupees themselves can be ignored.

This route is approximately 15 seconds faster than the no bombs route, but adds various difficult tricks (Deku Toad Early Bomb, Death Sword Skip, and Stallord Skip)
