Gold Fighter is a transformation from the Mario series that appears as a status effect in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 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 here.

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 both cases, the effect is accompanied by a damage output multiplier, indicated by a red particle effect around the affected fighter.

Origin

The effect originates from the Gold Flower powerup, introduced in New Super Mario Bros. 2. With it, Mario can transform into Gold Mario, a variant of the Fire Mario transformation that allows Mario to shoot golden fireballs that turn breakable blocks and enemies into coins.
