| The Evade stat of the pokemon using Double Team will increase by 1 step (termed BTLs in the Gameboy description) on the standard Accuracy scale.
Double Team will always fail if it has already been used 6 times by the same pokemon, without a move that lowers Evade being used on or against the pokemon using Double Team. This is due to the fact that a stat may only be raised by a maximum of 6 steps, until it is reset by the use of Haze or the pokemon is switched out normally. The maximum is the limit of how many increases can be applied to a stat. If another move increases the Evade stat of the pokemon using Double Team, the number of steps that it increases the Evade stat by will count toward the 6 step limit, and reduce the number of times that Double Team can be used appropriately.
An example of this last part might be if another pokemon who has both Double Team and Baton Pass used Baton Pass after using Double Team 3 times. If another pokemon that has Double Team is the receipient of the Baton Pass, it will only be able to use Double Team 3 more times before the move will fail.
