Glitches and Tricks
Section titled “Glitches and Tricks”Guard Skip
The guard that blocks the way to Avalon can be bypassed by moving diagonally across him. This can be reproduced in both versions of the game and allows the player to access lategame items much earlier than intended. It is also possible to go fight the last boss fight from there at any moment.
Encounter despawn
By pressing select to open the map, the internal encounter counter is reset to zero. By doing so in a rhythm, it is possible to avoid all random encounters.
Casino Trick
Can be used in both Dark and Light versions. When playing BIG OR SMALL, if you hold down the L button, the result will always be a tie. This means that you can tie the game indefinitely while waiting for a 0 or 9 to appear which will always result in a win if choosing Big or Small, respectively.
