I was trying to format the link to the category of "Pokémon that evolve through trading" so that it appears as an internal Bulbapedia link rather than an external link, but for some reason, the method in which I typed the sentence categorizes the Pokémon Bank article ''itself'' in that category rather than just "internally linking to that category within the sentence" (the latter being what I intended). It would be greatly appreciated if someone could help to format this sentence properly (and in the worst-case scenario, I'll just settle for the link appearing as an external link). Thanks in advance. [[User:Fenyx4|Fenyx4]] ([[User talk:Fenyx4|talk]]) 19:05, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

:Fixed it. If you want to link to a category rather than add it, you put a colon at the beginning of the link. In this case, it is <nowiki>[[:Category:Pokémon that evolve through trading]]</nowiki>. ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆ 19:15, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Official Pokémon website's FAQ page of Pokémon Bank

For others who want to improve the article, the link to the FAQ for Pokémon Bank is here, where you can also navigate to other pages that cover Pokémon Bank's functionality, etc.:

Held items/Berries disappearing when Bag is "full"

The Pokémon Bank FAQ mentions that held items/Berries will be sent to your Bag when the player is depositing Pokémon into Pokémon Bank, and that items will disappear if the Bag is "full". I thought that post-Generation 3 games had unlimited Bag space, so I'm wondering is this statement referring to when you have the maximum amount of a single item (like reaching the cap of 999 Rare Candies in the Rare Candy's particular item slot)?

Incorrect categorization link.

Read: [Category:Pokémon that evolve through trading|Pokémon that] evolve via trading will not evolve if sent to Pokémon Bank.

(There are supposed to be two brackets "[[]]" in the sentence, but I'm not sure of what you type to make wikicode/markup appear as text rather than executing itself/how you nullify wikicode from executing...) I was trying to format the link to the category of "Pokémon that evolve through trading" so that it appears as an internal Bulbapedia link rather than an external link, but for some reason, the method in which I typed the sentence categorizes the Pokémon Bank article itself in that category rather than just "internally linking to that category within the sentence" (the latter being what I intended).

Fixed it. If you want to link to a category rather than add it, you put a colon at the beginning of the link. In this case, it is [[:Category:Pokémon that evolve through trading]]. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 19:15, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
