About the Good as Gold ability
Good as Gold is one of 112+ abilities in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Each Pokémon has one active ability at a time, drawn from a list of 1-3 possible abilities per species (the third slot, when present, is the Hidden Ability — only accessible via Tera raids, Mass Outbreaks, or Ability Patch).
Official game text: A body of pure, solid gold gives the Pokémon full immunity to other Pokémon's status moves.
How to get a Pokémon with Good as Gold
If Good as Gold is a regular ability (not Hidden Ability), simply catch the Pokémon and it has a 50% chance per slot of having Good as Gold. You can use an Ability Capsule (50 BP at Chansey Supply) to swap between regular ability slots. If Good as Gold is the Hidden Ability of one of the 1 Pokémon listed above, you'll need either:
- To catch the Pokémon from a 5-star or 6-star Tera raid
- To use an Ability Patch (consumable from picnic crafting / raid rewards) on a Pokémon that already has Good as Gold as a regular ability
- To transfer a Pokémon with Hidden Ability via Pokémon HOME from older games
