Weakened

Weakened is a negative status effect and a battle mechanic that appeared in Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood. Weakened can be inflicted on both the playable characters and the enemies when they are hit by certain attacks, such as POW moves or regular attacks (in the playable characters' case).

When a target is inflicted with Weakened, the target does less damage in battle. A target inflicted with Weakened is signified by green and red spark-like dusks emitting from its body. It can be cured by Rock Salt and Antidote.
