A monster is considered to be '''linkedLinked''' (リンク{{Ruby|状|じょう}}{{Ruby|態|たい}} ''Rinku Jōtai'', "Link State") if its when a [[Link Monster]]'s [[Link Arrow]] [[points to]] it, '''OR''' when it itself is a Link Monster that points to any other monsters. While cards like "[[Points to|pointing Cynet Storm]]" refer toany Monster in this state, cards like "[[Tindangle Hound]] " care about the monsters a monstercard is "linked to", or if another which refers to each other monster's Link Arrow is pointing to itor pointed at by an individual linked monster.

'''{{main|Co-linked''' ({{Ruby|相|そう}}{{Ruby|互|ご}}リンク Multiple Link Monsters are '''Sōgo Rinkuco-linked'', "Mutual Link") is a kind of linked that occurs when two Link Monsters' [[Link Arrow]]s are pointing if they point to each other. For example, if one player controls a Link Monster with a Down Link Arrow in an [[Extra Monster Zone]], and a Link Monster with an Up Link Arrow in their [[Main Monster Zone]] in the same [[column]], then those two Link Monsters are co-linked.

==Extra LinkLinked=='''Extra Link''' (Japanese: {{Rubymain|ＥＸ|エクストラExtra Link}}リンク, ''Ekusutora Rinku'') is a chain of coA special Co-links linked state that connects both [[the two Extra Monster Zone]]sZones. This allows a player to control both Any monster involved in an Extra Monster Zones simultaneouslyLink is '''Extra Linked'''. Since both are occupiedAdditionally, the opponent cannot use either of the any monster co-linked with an Extra Monster Zones, unless they remove a Linked monster from one of those zonesis also Extra Linked.

==Examples=====Example A player can perform an Extra Link, so long as the following conditions are met:Linked Monsters===# The player controls a [[Link Monster]] in an Extra Monster Zone while the other Extra Monster Zone is unoccupied.<gallery position="center" captionalign="center"># The three middle [[Main Monster Zone]]s on one side of the field must be occupied by Link MonstersIbtheWorldChalicePriestess-COTD-EN-1E-OP.png# Each of the Link Monsters involved in the Extra Link must be coCrownedbytheWorldChalice-COTD-EN-C-linked with the other orthogonally adjacent Link Monsters involved in the Extra Link1E.png# The Link Monster involved in the Extra Link occupying the Main Monster Zone in the same [[column]] as the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone must point to that zone.</gallery>

In this scenario, both "[[Ib the World Chalice Priestess]]" and "[[Crowned by the World Chalice]]" are '''linked''' monsters that caseare linked to each other. They are NOT co-linked. ===Example B: Co-linked Monsters===<gallery position="center" captionalign="center">Honeybot-YS17-EN-SR-1E.pngFirewallDragon-COTD-EN-ScR-1E.png</gallery> In this scenario, a Link Monster can be Summoned not only are "[[Honeybot]]" and "[[Firewall Dragon]]" linked Monsters that are linked to the unoccupied Extra Monster Zoneeach other, as long as it is they are also '''co-linked ''' with the Link Monster involved in the one another because of their arrows. ===Example C: Extra Link that is in the same column as itLinked Monsters===<gallery position="center" captionalign="center">File:Extra_Link.pngFile:Extra_Link_2.png</gallery>In this scenario, and performing the Link Summon does not disturb all of the Monsters are '''Extra Link (by using the monsters involved Linked'''. Furthermore, if a Monster present in the Extra Link as leftmost or rightmost [[Link MaterialMain Monster Zone]]swas co-linked with "Firewall Dragon" (An additional "Honeybot", for example)it would be considered Extra Linked as well.
