A simple Weakness Policy question?

If I have the ability Simple and the held weakness policy activates (and breaks)
Do I get +4 attack and Special attack?

Answer 1

Yeah, the ability simple does that.

Do you have a source? I searched all over and couldn't find out anything about this.

My source: Knowledge
It's pretty simple to figure it out, simple doubles stat changes.

Answer 2

Yes, it does.

As seen in this replay, Numel's attack goes up to 3x, or 4 stages.
Normally a Weakness Policy brings you up to 2x, or 2 stages.
