Title: Link's Awakening DX--Color Tunics without Color Dungeon!
Added: Oct 18, 2009

Description:
This glitch DOES work in the 3DS Virtual Console version.This glitch is quite simple to perform. Kill 89 enemies without leaving the overworld, then kill a particular 90th enemy to get the tunic of your choice.Enemy indices--Every enemy on a screen has an index. A single onscreen enemy usually has index zero (the urchin near the sword is index 2), and multiple onscreen enemies will have indices 0, 1, 2, etc.How it works-- the game writes the actor index of each enemy you kill to an array that follows the enemy kill counter. If you kill enough enemies, it will go beyond the bounds of the array and into the color data for the onscreen sprites. This starts with Link (90th "entry" in the array), and continues on to the various onscreen things.I suspect that this comes from the porting to GBC. In LA, that data would be unused, as there would be no color data for a B&W game. When adding the color data, they forgot about that array routine, and never noticed it since even if someone did kill 90 enemies in a row in the overworld, there's a good chance that enemy has index 00 and thus does nothing.

Jun 13, 2011 - If I constantly switch between tunics, will my photo data be overwritten by the damage sprite tunic every time I get that one?
petrie911 Says:
Jun 13, 2011 - yes. Unfortunately, pics 3 and 4 can't be gotten after the Marin event, so it's best to do this before then.

Dec 30, 2011 - I've been using this glitch since the first time I played this game, found it out myself. Although I thought you needed a piece of power or guardian acorn to do it. About 90% of the time I got the color I wanted though.Anyway, according to the theory in the description you would lose your color if you stay in the overworld for too long and kill 90 enemies. You would probably get a 0 and turn green again. This has however never happened to me. Could you explain that to me?

twilightwindwaker Says:
Apr 14, 2012 - How can you tell which index is which?
petrie911 Says:
Apr 16, 2012 - You can figure out the index of an enemy by killing it and looking at the value that gets written to memory using the RAM watch in VBA. Aside from that, trial and error works, too.
petrie911 Says:
Apr 16, 2012 - Dark Green tunic. 2x damage.
twilightwindwaker Says:
Apr 16, 2012 - So it's totally random and you have no choice what you want?
petrie911 Says:
Apr 16, 2012 - No, each specific enemy always has the same index. In general, if a screen has N enemies, one will have index 0, another will have index 1, another will have index 2, and so on. The difficult part is figuring out which index goes with which enemy.
