Play Nice lowers the target's Attack by one stage. The move always hits, even if the target used a Protect-like move.

Stats can be lowered to a minimum of -6 stages each.

When a Pokémon is holding Normalium Z and uses its Z-Power, Play Nice turns into Z-Play Nice and raises Defense one stage, in addition to its usual effect as above.
