I've been thinking, and for a second i thought that you could but you can't. It IS possible to get even diamonds without a pickaxe ( ), but you still need obsidian to reach the end. Is any other way to get obsidian other than a pickaxe?
Wait, you need obsidian to reach the end? Wait, I thought that you need eyes of the ender for the portal frame to the end and then obsidian for the Nether?
To get obsidian, just make a mold with lava and water.

And where do you get the blaze powder to make those eyes? The Nether. So you NEED obsidian.
Zombies do drop iron pickaxes, but I personally find iron helmets to be the most frequent drop.
This challenge is quite doable with the newer versions of minecraft. The simplest way of doing this challenge would be to raid villages as you would then get almost everything you need from the blacksmith chests (obsidian blocks, iron ingots, diamonds and other useful stuff as well).
The first thing you need is 3 iron ingots to craft a bucket, then you don't need any more iron until you want to craft armor for the trip to the end (the portal can be built and lighted with lava, Blazes can be killed with stone swords).
This challenge would be a lot harder if you disable villages as you will then only find chests in dungeons (abandoned mineshafts are also disabled when you turn of villages right?) .
But it will still be doable as zombies drop iron ingots. The hardest part without villages would be to harvest diamonds.
He kill a large amount of creepers.
He uses the gunpowder to make TNT.
With the TNT he mines iron.
With the TNT he also mines stone.
With the stone he makes a furnace and cooks the iron.
With the iron he makes a bucket.
With the bucket he makes a nether portal mold.
He goes into the nether gets blaze rods, comes back kills a ton of enderman and goes to the end.
It is possible, but time consuming. It also varies between worlds. This method skips the Nether altogether.
-Locate a village.
-Harvest all of the wheat and plant the seeds.
-Trade with the farmer villagers to get emeralds (18-21 wheat gets you one emerald).
-Now trade the emeralds with the priest villager to get an Eye of Ender (7-10 emeralds gets you one Eye of Ender).
-Use those Eyes of Ender to locate a Stronghold (skip this step if you already found one)!
-Put the Eyes of Ender into the open End portal frame.*
-Go to the End.
-?????
-PROFIT!
*On certain worlds, the End portal frame can become unusable since abandoned mineshafts can spawn through them (>_<)
I'm actually in the process of doing that (see my signature). Unfortunately, I've been very busy lately, and I'm too scared to venture to the bottom of my ravine to use one of my five buckets to collect lava that's about ten blocks away.

This thread has been dead for more than three months. How did you even find it? And why did you bring it back from the dead? How the hell do newbs do this?

Never seen a pick. I've seen ingots, shovels, helmets and swords, but never a pick.

You think magic isn't real? Consider this: for every person, there is a sentence -- a series of words -- which has the power to destroy them.

Wow, looks like I just did the hard part.
Challenge accepted!
I said this. Two days later, my computer's motherboard melted down and I had to get a new one with Windows 8.
Irony in the first degree.
