Second sentence in the intro is ambiguous concerning the specifics of the double-battle method; added more in-depth description and example scenario to clarify

 At the end of the battle the user's Pokémon will have the same moveset as the enemy Pokémon. Exploiting this glitch allows for {{p|Ditto}} to learn moves other than {{m|Transform}} and to subsequently pass down any [[Egg move]].
+If a {{p|Ditto}} manages to learn an [[egg move]] through this glitch the player may be able to pass it down in the daycare if the paired Pokémon is female.
+This glitch can also be exploited by using Transform through {{m|Mimic}}, {{m|Mirror Move}}, {{m|Copycat}}, {{m|Metronome}} and {{m|Assist}}. However, it can only be performed within a [[double battle]] (unless the foe happens to be a Ditto). In addition, after the "Rage is building" message is displayed, only the Pokémon that used one of the aforementioned move-copying moves can defeat the enemy; if the other Pokémon on your team attacks first, the glitch will not work.
+==Double Battle Example==
+*Send out Sudowoodo (knows Mimic) and Ditto (knows Transform)
+*Ditto uses Transform on any Pokémon on the field
+*Sudowoodo uses Mimic on Ditto, learns Transform
+*Ditto switches out with Feraligatr (knows Rage)
+*Sudowoodo uses Transform on Feraligatr
+*Sudowoodo uses Rage on any Pokémon on the field
+*Sudowoodo gets hit by any Pokémon on the field, "Rage is building"
+*Feraligatr switches out with another Pokémon (to ensure Sudowoodo attacks first)
+*Sudowoodo immediately causes enemy to faint, ending the battle
+If done correctly, Sudowoodo will know all of Feraligatr's moves after the battle ends. Keep in mind that if the Pokémon you are glitching faints before the battle ends, it will not work, and with the amount of switching and moves that do not inflict damage, this can be difficult with a lower-level Pokémon.
 ==Effects==
-A transformed Pokémon after using {{m|Rage}} at least once (but receiving the "Rage is building" message) will permanently learn the moves of the Pokémon that it transformed into.
+No adverse or long-term side effects other than those already stated are known to occur as a result of using this glitch.
-If a {{p|Ditto}} manages to learn an [[egg move]] through this glitch the player may be able to pass it down in the daycare if the paired Pokémon is female.
-This glitch can also be exploited by using Transform through {{m|Mimic}}, {{m|Mirror Move}}, {{m|Copycat}}, {{m|Metronome}} and {{m|Assist}}.
