Details Discovered: Unknown Verified: Yes

Instructions

Note: This can be done on the Virtual Console version of the game.

1. Call and mount Epona. Ride to Milk Road or the Swamp area where there is an Owl statue. The glitch will not work if you do not ride her into the area where the Owl statue is, and if, at any time, you dismount Epona or pause the game, the glitch will end or fail to work.
2. Z-Target the Owl statue and choose to save.
3. Open the file you just saved.
4. You should still be on Epona in front of the statue; she should walk a few steps then stop. If you are not on Epona at this point, retry.

Result

While riding Epona, you may now use whatever items you had equipped to a C-button before doing this glitch. You can't equip new ones, though (because you can't pause without ending the glitch).

Explanation

First of all, the reason you must enter the area on horseback is that if you don't and then save, you'll reappear without Epona. The game uses the state you entered the area in for the save, which is why you must ride in.

Now, the reason why the glitch occurs appears to be a programming error. When you reload the saved game, the game remembers you were on Epona and so puts you on horseback. Normally, when you load a game saved at an Owl Statue, you get a short text by the Owl Statue which initializes everything, but at the same time, since you're on Epona, the game intends to move you forward. This move takes priority over the Owl Statue speech, so the C-Buttons are not disabled and you can use them on Epona.
