'''Gold Fighter''' is a transformation from the {{uv|Mario}} series that appears as a status effect in {{for3ds}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Gold fighters deal more knockback to opponents from direct attacks and throws, although projectiles are unaffected. Images of each character's gold form can be found [[Gold Fighter/Character gallery|here]].
'''Gold''' is a transformation that appears in {{for3ds}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Fighters affected by this transformation are referred to as '''gold fighters'''.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlXuE_ojA |title=Director's Room |accessdate=2019-07-14 |author=Masahiro Sakurai |date=2014-06-10 |publisher=Miiverse |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20171017180903/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAAYUKlXuE_ojA |archivedate=2017-10-17 |quote=If you collect 100 coins, you transform into a gold fighter!

Currently, there are no items or [[Special Smash]] conditions which can apply the effect, however it can be applied to opponents in various Spirit battles. Additionally, [[Xerneas]] in ''Ultimate'' turns the summoner gold, and the effect is also applied on the [[Golden Plains]] stage in both games it appears in, activated by collecting 100 coins. In ''Ultimate'', some spirit battles have the fighter being permanently gold. In all cases, the effect is accompanied by a damage output multiplier, indicated by a red particle effect around the affected fighter.
Gold fighters deal 1.5× more [[knockback]] to opponents from [[direct]] attacks and [[throw]]s, but [[projectile]]s are unaffected. In ''for Nintendo 3DS'' only, the fighter will not [[flinch]] or receive [[knockback]]. When granted by collecting 100 coins on [[Golden Plains]] or by summoning [[Xerneas]] (in ''Ultimate''), the effect is accompanied by a damage output multiplier, indicated by a red particle effect around the affected fighter. The aesthetic effects of the transformation, such as the metallic appearance and muted voice clips, are similar to that of a [[Metal Box]]. In some [[Spirit Battle]]s, the opponent is gold.
 
The Metal Killer [[spirit]] skill deals increased damage to gold fighters, treating them just like metal fighters. Conversely, [[Metal Slash]] does not treat gold fighters as metal fighters, dealing 1% damage instead of an [[Instant KO]].

==Origin==
==Origin==
The effect originates from the {{s|mariowiki|Gold Flower}} powerup, introduced in ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. 2}}''. With it, [[Mario]] can transform into {{s|mariowiki|Gold Mario}}, a variant of the {{s|mariowiki|Fire Mario}} transformation that allows Mario to shoot golden fireballs that turn breakable blocks and enemies into coins.

==Trivia==
*In Spirit Battles, gold fighters will not have the red aura and rainbow flare around them, to indicate that their damage output is not buffed. However, if they use their Final Smash, they will temporarily lose their gold status, and upon regaining it, the red aura and flare will appear as well, although their damage output still isn't buffed.
*The "Transformation Duration" Spirit skill increases the duration of the gold status from Golden Plains, but not from Xerneas.
