What would happen if a Pokemon had a status problem and it evolved into a Pokemon that was immune to it?

For example, a Poisoned Cascoon evolving into Dustox, who now has the Poison type. Since Poison types are immune to the status problem itself, what would happen?

Soaking a Pokemon will let it get hit by any status condition.

But at that point, it is not a Fire/ Poison/ Ground/ Ice - type.

... Also, poisoned Pokémon who evolve into a Poison- or Steel-type Pokémon, such as Cascoon evolving into Dustox, will keep the poisoned status after evolving.
