A '''Double Battle''' (Japanese: '''ダブルバトル''' ''Double Battle''), also known as a '''two-on-two 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 [[Multi Battle]]. | A '''Double Battle''' (Japanese: '''ダブルバトル''' ''Double Battle''), also known as a '''two-on-two battle''', is a [[Pokémon battle]] featuring up to four {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} actively participating at once.

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 the same Double Battle). 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}} to [[Generation V]], two Trainers who see the player at the same time will engage the player in a Double 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 approaching and battling the player immediately after the first Trainer is defeated. | In a Double Battle, two teams of two Pokémon face each other in battle.
