Goldie

Goldies are Boss Salmonids that appear in Salmon Run in Splatoon 2.

Description
Goldies typically show up during Rush and Goldie Seeking, and may appear during Fog. Goldies are golden Salmonids that move faster, hit harder, and have higher health than Chums. Additionally, they grow progressively faster as they take damage. Mr. Grizz refers to them as 'the golden one'. During Rush, Goldies are the only boss Salmonid and will pursue the player surrounded with Glowflies. During this occurrence, they drop three Golden Eggs. In Fog waves, Goldies have a chance to drop either one, five, or ten Golden Eggs instead of three after defeating it. During Goldie Seeking, they are again the only boss Salmonid. The aim of the occurrence is to attempt to find the Goldie hiding in the Gushers. When found, the Goldie will attempt to run away. Given enough time, they will head towards another Gusher and dive into the underground waterways, and the next Gusher they will appear in is randomized. This is the only occurrence where the Goldie will get smaller as it loses scales. Goldies make an eerie screeching sound.
