Pasio Gold Rush (Japanese: パシオに迫る金色の影！ A Golden Shadow Looms Over Pasio!) was a solo event in Pokémon Masters EX. It was focused on Hikers.
During this event, players could earn Nuggets from battles against Hikers which could be redeemed in the shop. Obtaining 300 Nuggets would unlock the story area Familiar Faces. All battles could be challenged an unlimited number of times except Daily Extreme Battle 1, which could only be challenged once per day. Extra Nuggets were automatically exchanged with coins once the event was finished.
First run
The event first ran from May 1 to 9, 2022, lasting a total of eight days. It ran alongside the story event A Golden Future and the Daily Battle event The Golden Magikarp.
Second run
The event from May 5 to 17, 2023, lasting a total of twelve days. In addition, the amount of Nuggets earned from battles was smaller compared to the first run. The Golden Magikarp reran alongside it, but A Golden Future did not.
Third run
The event reran again from April 27 to May 10, 2024. Both The Golden Magikarp and A Golden Future reran alongside it. Everything else was the same as the previous run, including the event's duration.

| Hiker | We've brought tons of 'em! |
| Hiker | My buddies and I have brought tons, yes indeed! To Pasio! We hikers will be hikin' in the mountains! If you want some of this lustrous loot, come find us! |
- The Mysterious Hikers
| Name | Text |
|---|---|
| <player> started hearing rumors from his/her friends that some strange men had been spotted around Pasio. | |
| (Forest; the player is talking to Red and Leaf) | |
| Leaf | Oh yeah, I've met someone like that! I met him when I was traveling around the Sevii Islands! |
| (Red chuckles and tips his hat) | |
| Leaf | Wait—you met him, too, Red? |
| (The player turns to Ethan, Kris, and Lyra) | |
| Ethan | Huh. I met someone like that in Viridian Forest. |
| Kris | Me too... |
| (The player turns to Dawn and Lucas) | |
| Dawn | I met someone like that at the Resort Area back in Sinnoh. I wonder if it was the same person. |
| (City with windmills; the player is talking to Brendan and May) | |
| Brendan | Yeah, I met someone like that in Mauville City! What about you? |
| (The player turns to Elio and Selene) | |
| Elio | Hmm... I did hear rumors about someone like that who was spotted at a ferry terminal in Alola... |
| Selene | I wonder if they came from somewhere far away. |
| (Cave; the player is talking to Hilbert and Hilda) | |
| Hilbert | Yeah, I totally met a guy like that! Two, in fact! They were brothers, if I remember right! |
| (The player turns to Rosa and Nate) | |
| Rosa | Hm... The ones I met were a man and his son... |
| Hilbert | But they did give you something, right? And it was two of the same thing? |
| Rosa | Yep! |
| (Fade to black) | |
| A while later... | |
| (Mountain; the player is talking to Steven) | |
| Steven | There's a rumor that some strange hikers have been appearing often on a certain mountain here on Pasio. It gives me a bad feeling, so I'd appreciate if you could look into it, <player>. I wonder who or what these strange hikers might be. |
| (Fade to black) | |
| <player> and Steven split up to search for the rumored hikers, until eventually... | |
| (The player emerges from a cave and finds some hikers) | |
| Hiker (1) | Hey there! If you're here on this golden path, that can only mean one thing! |
| Hiker (2) | You're here 'cause you want a present, right? |
| Hiker (3) | We'd be happy to share some with you right away, but first... |
| Hiker (4) | We've just arrived on Pasio, so we're new sync pairs! And we're itching to battle! |
| Hiker (2) | We'll give you your present if you can beat us! |
| Hiker (1) | There's no need to be so shy! After all, we are— Well...I guess right now, we're just your normal, average hikers! Time for a battle, then! Let's go, guys! |
| (The hikers laugh, but the player is flustered) | |
- Familiar Faces
| Name | Text |
|---|---|
| (The player is talking to the hikers on the mountain; golden spheres are scattered on the ground) | |
| Hiker (1) | Phew, you really are strong! You had us all beat! |
| Hiker (2) | Which means you've earned yourself those Nuggets we just gave you! |
| Hiker (3) | We can't give you any nuggets of wisdom, so that'll have to do! |
| Hiker (4) | Try to spend them wisely! |
| Hiker (2) | Um... How do I use them?: Good question! We're not quite sure, either! |
| Hiker | Are you sure I can have them?: Of course! We've got more than enough to go around! |
| Hiker (4) | All right! Time to go pass out more of our Nuggets to everyone else! |
| Hiker (3) | See ya! I hope we meet again! |
| (The hikers wave to the player) | |
