Classic NES Series: Zelda II Cheats and Tips [GBA]

Glitch - Stay alive after a fatal hit.

If you fall off the side of the screen when you get hit, you won't die, even if your HP is at 0. Stand very close to the edge of the screen, and attack from there. You can use this to level up without the risk of losing your EXP to a gameover. Especially at screens with jumping fish.
 

 

Glitch - Bypass forced encounters

You can bypass a forced encounter if you enter the tile while it's being occupied by a random battle monster. Instead of fighting through the forced encounter you will fight a random battle. After the battle, you can simply step off the tile and continue.
