The Weakness Policy (Japanese: じゃくてんほけん Weakness Insurance) is a type of consumable held item introduced in Generation VI. It raises the holder's Attack and Special Attack if it is hit by a super effective move.

Price
Effect
If the holder is hit by a super effective move, it consumes the Weakness Policy and its Attack and Special Attack are increased by two stages each.
It does not activate if the holder already has both +6 Attack and +6 Special Attack stat stages (unless its Ability is Contrary, in which case it will not activate if the holder has both -6 Attack and -6 Special Attack stat stages). It does not activate if the holder is protected from or unaffected by the super effective move (e.g. due to Telepathy).
If multiple Pokémon each holding a Weakness Policy are hit by a super effective move at once, each hit Pokémon will consume its Weakness Policy before Symbiosis transfers any item (including Weakness Policies).
