A '''Double Battle''' (Japanese: '''ダブルバトル''' ''Double Battle''), also known as a '''2-on-2 battle''', is a [[Pokémon battle]] featuring up to four {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} actively participating at once. Debuting in the games in [[Generation III]], and featuring occasionally in the anime prior to this, they may feature anywhere between two and four [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. A battle in which either side has more than one Trainer is a [[Tag Battle]].

In a Double Battle, each Pokémon is part of a duo, meaning that the battle takes place between two teams of two. The number of Trainers participating can be two, in which case each would use two Pokémon; three, in which case a pair of Trainers each sends out one Pokémon each against a single Trainer using two; or four, in which each Trainer sends out one Pokémon. At first, only specific Trainer classes, such as {{tc|Sis and Bro}} and {{tc|Sr. and Jr.}}, would engage the player in Double Battles; however, from {{game|Emerald}} onwards, two Trainers who see the player at the same time will be engaged in a Tag Battle. If the player has only one conscious Pokémon, Trainer classes who will only engage the player in Double Battles will ignore the player and comment that the player should bring two Pokémon to battle them with; two Trainers who see the player at the same time will take turns battling the player in two Single Battles, with the second Trainer walking up to and battling the player right after the first one.
