A '''Link Monster''' (Japanese: リンクモンスター ''Rinku Monsutā'') is a type of [[Monster Card]]. The color of their card frame is dark blue, similar to the border of a [[Ritual Monster]], but with a hexagonal pattern similar to a honeycomb structure. These cards are placed in the [[Extra Deck]].
Like other Extra Deck monsters:* , Link Monsters cannot exist in the [[hand]] or [[Main Deck]] (even with card effects). If a Link Monster would be moved to the hand or Main Deck, it is returned to the Extra Deck instead. If a card like "[[Transmigration Break]]" or "[[Degenerate Circuit]]" is applying, the Link Monster will be [[banish]]ed rather than returning to the Extra Deck.* To be properly [[Special Summon]]edLike other Extra Deck monsters, if a Link Monsters must first be Monster is not [[Link Summon]]ed. If they leave the Extra Deck without being Link Summonedfirst, they it cannot be Special Summoned while they are banished or in the [[GraveyardSpecial Summon]].* Link Monsters can only be Special Summoned ed from the Extra Deck to either the [[Extra Monster ZoneGraveyard]] or a while [[Linked Zonebanish]].
