Is there a format where you can use these mons in a Double Battle?

1 minute read

So I’m trying to recreate a Dream I had. The opposing trainer had a Giratina-Origin and Urshifu and I had mons like Empoleon, Luxray, Roserade, and Togekiss. Is there a format I can use these Pokemon in a Double Battle, like a custom game or something?

Alrighty I got it now.

Currently, there are two ways to do this.First is Doubles Custom Game, and to get the format, you’ll have to manually edit in the Backup All Teams option in the builder, which is a bit confusing especially if you’re exploring the builder for the first time. And to play it, you’ll have to use the /challenge command.Secondly, if you challenge your opponent with the following command:/challenge gen8doublesubers [username] @@@ +empoleon +[whatever other Pokémon you want which is not in the Galar Dex]you’ll be able to battle with any Pokémon in the National Dex in the doubles format.

Hope it helped!

From what I know, there isn’t an actual format which allows all six of the Pokemon you’ve mentioned to be valid other than Doubles Custom Game, as there’s no National Dex Doubles format.
