The least confrontational way to reach [[BP:Sabrina|Sabrina]] is to take teleporter '''A''', then walk straight across to '''D''', then straight down to '''O''', then straight across twice to '''N''' and '''M'''. However, if you're trying to maximize your experience, simply move vertically from one teleporter to the next, fighting the trainer in each room. By the time you get to Sabrina, you will have fought them all.

Sabrina's Abra shouldn't cause much of a problem in Yellow, since it only knows Teleport and Flash and can't deal you any damage. Kadabra is also not especially strong. It is Alakazam and his consistent use of the move Recover that will be a serious pain. It's psychic is also very strong. Bug Pokémon are strong here, so a Parasect or Butterfree should be okay against Alakazam. The best way to deal with Sabrina is to take advantage of her Psychics' weak defense with strong Ground, Flying or even Normal-type attacks. Dugtrio and his Dig and Earthquake work well, as well as Charizard's Slash, which has a high critical-hit ratio. Other pokemon with high physical attack power will do, as long as they don't have low special.

Defeating Sabrina will net you the '''Marsh Badge''' as well as '''TM 46''', which contains the randomly-damaging Psywave Psychic-type attack.  The Marsh Badge gives you the ability to command Pokémon as high as level 70, although you're not likely to have need of such power for quite some time.
