When used, Lucario enters a defensive tai chi-like stance. If it is attacked during this stance, it will teleport, then strike with a sliding kick from the left or right (depending on the direction the control stick is held in) for moderate damage and surprisingly high knockback, which is even greater when Lucario has taken damage. If Lucario successfully counters with Double Team near an edge, it may teleport above the ledge and fall downwards as it unsuccessfully attacks, making recovery difficult.

Lucario quietly says "It's over" whenever Double Team is successfully activated in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', but this phrase is barely recognizable by many players due to many other sound effects and music unless one plays the game in high-definition volume settings. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', however, Lucario says "Weak!" instead. In ''Brawl'', Lucario speaks as it's attacking, but in ''Smash 4'', Lucario speaks as it's being attacked.

Double Team has a longer length than Marth's and Ike's [[Counter]], having the longest counter window in ''Smash 4'' at 35 frames (tied with [[Vision]]), which also comes out the fastest, at 5 frames (tied with [[Slip Counter]] and [[Witch Time]]). To compensate, it has the longest overall animation for a counter, being over 40 frames long after the counter frames. It is notably different in that it does not change power depending on the countered move; rather, it does a constant attack no matter what moves it counters. Its intangibility lasts until the counter frames end, leaving him unaffected even by attacks that cannot be countered, such as grabs and Final Smashes.
