Hammond & Griffith 1972, p. 41: "Pelion lay on the Illyrian side of the Wolfs pass. Lake Little Prespa, since Philip's annexation ofland, was on the Macedonian side. In 335 Pelion was 'the strongest city in the region', i.e. in its walled defences (Arr. r. 5. 5), and it was 'favourably situated for making attacks into Macedonia' (Livy 3 I. 40. 5)."

Dupuy, Trevor (1969). The military life of Alexander the Great of Macedon. F. Watts. p. 30. ISBN 9780531018750. An Illyrian chieftain named Cleitus had seized the Macedonian frontier fortress town of Pelium, in the pass between Illyria and Macedonia on the upper Apsos (Devol)
Hammond, Nicholas (1994). Collected studies. Hakkert. p. 48. As the fighting among Illyrians was at or near Pelium, we have to put Pelium in Illyria both on the references cited above and also on later statements that it was in Illyria (St. Byz. using Asinius Quadratus), in Dassaretis (Livy 31.40.4).

Hammond & Griffith 1972, p. 191: "Here there were some urban settlements such as Lychnidus and Pelium, and it is probable that they were fortified with walls in the time of Bardylis."

Lewis, Frank William Walbank, Elizabeth Rawson, John Anthony Crook, Andrew William Lintott, Alan K. Bowman, Michael Whitby, Peter Garnsey, Averil Cameron, Bryan Ward-Perkins. Cambridge University Press, 2000. ISBN 0-521-23348-8 p.429: "It is probable that Bardylis, unlike previous Illyrian dynasts, built a few fortified cities; for Lychnidus and Pelium in the lakeland were walled sites probably before the accession of Philip."
Lane Fox 2011, p. 342: "Nowhere was the phalanx more adept than in the Illyrian campaign of 335 bc against Bardylis’ son Cleitos and his ally Glaucias near the fortified settlement of Pelion. [...] Pelion was an Illyrian site there, not a former settlement of Philip's, and "if Alexander had taken the wrong turning in southern Albania", as Winnifrith well points out, he would have been destroyed, so "Pelion is important for the history of the world".

Morton 2017, p. 91: "Alexander waged his campaign in at the Tsangon pass to control his western border before heading off on his extended eastern campaign. This makes sense as this pass controls one of the only two major east-west routes between Illyria and Macedonia, the other being the northern route that became the via Egnatia. Philip II's founding of Herakleia controlled Illyrian access west by the northern route; Alexander taking Pelium and the Tsangon pass controlled the southern route. ... Thus, by taking Pelium, Alexander could reasonably believe that he had protected Macedonia from Illyrian invasion and head off on his eastern campaign." Morton, Jacob Nathan (2017).
