In the Pokémon speedrunning community, [[go past the Marowak ghost without a Silph Scope]] is allowed in standard glitchless speedruns, despite it not being the developer's intention for the player to skip Marowak without the Silph Scope (and became the convention). A later category known as "Any% Glitchless (Classic)" bans using a Poké Doll on the ghost Marowak.
