Double Battles in D/P.

Sir Devious

Before you try to kill me with "DUH"'s, listen. What if wild pokemon traveled in pairs and could attack you that way? I think it is a great idea!
 

Shrooms

Magic Mushrooms
it could be good, like if a minun and a plusle are brothers and stuff
 

Will-powered Spriter

Pokédex Complete!
Maybe... with sum pokes, at least.
I once had a dream where i saw a wild blaziken & sceptile together, but instead of their cries, they said I was a bannana
0_o Weird.
Edit: It would mess up the catch system tho, XD, it said that the snag machine needed to charge, but there's no reason not to throw two, &, call was there so you didn't kill one.

Hmm. Would be interesting. Or if you battled one wild pokemon and suddenly when u think you've finished a random wild pokemon appears! Obviously they will be in the indicated area of course!
I just had a thought. It would be funny if pokemon travelled in pairs and they were both shiny! That would be very crazy and you'd go mental!
 
probaly funn for one time but i dont like the idea....
They dont have to change 1294012048 things....
And if you catch one you first need to catch the first one and then 2 omg
and its lame for the Foe because you split brothers like minun/plusle

But if you see my other topic, picture a Torchic and Cyndaquil trying to help eachother!!!
 
I like the idea of another wild pokemon wondering in half way through the battle to help, although it is slightly pointless.

Your kinda right, but hey, it would give pokemon a new twist.

Would the battle end as soon as you caught one, or after both were captured?

hmm, maybe if both were captured or you caught the first one and fainted the 2nd if u already have that pokemon.

I don't like it, since it seems kinda pointless. It would get annoying finding golbat in every cave you go and getting confused when you are trying to train. Besides, since when do pokemon help each other(in the games)

plusle and minun would work well in this set up

It would be rather nice to find Pokémon in pairs, as it would add more Double Battles, but that could really mess up EV training, if you could find two different Pokémon with different EV points. Of course, that wouldn't matter if you had a Pokémon in EV training and another one with full Evs in a double battle, and after fainting one of the foes, you could run away. Still, it's much more complicated. Of course, if the wild Pokémon wouldn't always be in pairs, but only sometimes, meaning you can run away from the Double Battles and only fight the one on one when Ev training, it'd be a tad better.

And what if you only have one Pokémon left? Would all the battles be two against one, or would only one Pokémon pop up then?

Also, would you be able to throw two Pokéballs at the foes? Colosseum/XD had that covered as the Snag Machine had to "recharge", but I doubt the trainer's hand had to recharge after having thrown one Pokéball. Then again, I don't see the problem in throwin two Pokéballs at once... Neh.

At any rate, I doubt this'll happen. In fact, I'm pretty sure it won't happen. It'd mess up Ev training, or at least, make it more complicated. No thanks for that.
 
It'd be an interesting concept.

I expected this feature from R/S when I heard they would have double battles.
