Golden Guard (ability)

Golden Guard is an Ability introduced in Generation VIII. It is the signature Ability of Mutekid.

In battle
Golden Guard grants the user complete invincibility for a total of three turns in battle, causing it to take no damage at all from any sources. A turn in battle only applies if the user willingly enters the battle or is forcibly switched out through a method such as Whirlwind or Roar. If the user is willingly switched out or forcibly switched into battle by methods such as Whirlwind or Roar, the turn will not count. After a total of three counted turns, Golden Guard will deactivate, allowing the target to be damaged. This Ability cannot be negated or changed by the effect of a move or another Ability, and no Pokemon other than Mutekid are able to have it, causing Trace and Role Play to fail against it.
