Linking-Cord

Linking-Cord is a special evolution item introduced in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. It functions equivalently to a trade-based evolution, allowing certain Pokémon that normally require trading to evolve when held and used in conjunction with it. Specifically, this item facilitates the evolution of Pokémon like Graveler into Golem, Machoke into Machamp, Kadabra into Alakazam, and Haunter into Gengar without the necessity of trading them to another player.
