## Weaknesses

* **Limited Knowledge:** Billy doesn't know everything he can do as Shazam's Champion and sometimes learns of new powers randomly.
* **Unable to Access Lightning Strikes:** A cloud appears instantly above Billy once he speaks the magic word and strikes him with a thin bolt of lightning, but it has to be able to strike him for him to transform. The lightning is just normal lightning by all means other than it magically appearing and gifting him his powers.
* **Vocal Reliance:** If Billy is unable to speak or be understood clearly while saying Shazam, he will not transform.

## Trivia
