In a Double Battle, two teams of two Pokémon face each other in battle. One Trainer may control both Pokémon on either side of the battle, or two Trainers may cooperate on one or both sides of the battle, each controlling their own Pokémon (meaning that anywhere from two to four Trainers may take part in a Double Battle).

Some {{cat|Double Battle Trainer classes|specific Trainer classes}}, such as {{tc|Sis and Bro}} and {{tc|Teammates|Sr. and Jr.}}, automatically engage the player in Double Battles; in [[Generation III]], they will only battle if the player steps on the tile directly in front of them, from [[Generation IV]] to {{gen|VI}} they can move towards the player to initiate such battles, and in [[Generation VII]] they can battle the player from afar but remain stationary (like all other Trainer classes in those games). 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.

Double Battles were formally introduced into [[Pokémon Adventures]] in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, though multiple Trainers or Pokémon teaming up were common before.

They later appear in ''[[PS207|On the Loose and Hyper With Zangoose and Seviper I]]'' when Ruby and a {{tc|Swimmer}} are spotted by a {{p|Seviper}} and a {{p|Zangoose}}. In ''[[PS229|You Can Fight Day or Night With Lunatone & Solrock]]'' [[Tate and Liza]] explicitly state Double Battle tactics during their battle with [[Blaise]], but are overwhelmed by their opponent's illusions.
