Double Team (Japanese: かげぶんしん Shadow Divide) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Double Team increases the user's evasion by 1 level.

Double Team will do nothing if the user's evasion has reached a level of +6.

In the anime

In the anime Double team is used to create illusionary copies of the Pokémon that uses it, to try and trick the opponent to attack the wrong one while it attacks it's opponent while it's distracted. In the Anime, it's been shown that a Pokémon can use Double team to make copies of itself as well as other Pokemon near it, as Ash had his Tailow copy itself and Pikachu riding it in order to defeat Team Rocket and save Tate and Liza's Solrock and Lunatone.


Pokémon

Meowth. Meowth glows white and then creates identical copies of itself.
