The Link Cable (Japanese: つうしんケーブル) is an Evolution Item in 
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team.
Some Pokémon require just the Link Cable to evolve, whilst others need the Link Cable and an additional item in order to complete their evolution. A total of 12 Pokémon need it in order to evolve. Each cable can only be used once.
Link Cables can be found scattered on numerous dungeon floors under certain conditions; such as crossing Water or using a Key. Other evolutionary items will be replaced with a Link Cable if they've been claimed, but not yet used or destroyed. Link Cables can then be found indefinitely after these requirements have been met.

| Part of this page's history has been imported from the PMD Rescue Team Wiki. On September 11, 2019, the Gamepedia Shiren the Wanderer Wiki became the Gamepedia Mystery Dungeon Wiki. As part of the unification project between Fandom and Gamepedia, we absorbed the Rescue Team Wiki and its page histories. Some pages were originally deemed unworthy of being imported and were left behind. We've since imported them with the intent to preserve the edits and history of this community and its contributions, as well as to build upon them. In some cases, these pages have been created again by editors of the MDFW, and the Rescue Team page histories were imported into them at a later date. You can check if this is the case by visiting the page's history.
