 ::I wouldn't call that ubiquitous usage, and that does nothing to refute my other point, on how "double jump" is blatantly wrong. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 18:43, 10 January 2014 (EST)
+:::Ubiquitous no; significantly more common yes (unless you can come up with some other usage stat that says otherwise). Also note that techniques have never been known as "midair jump this", but "double jump that". And being "wrong" hasn't stopped us from using other significant terms, like "Sakurai angle" (misnomer) or "tripping" (the animations technically involve slipping, not tripping).
+:::I'd also like to note that the internet in general vastly prefers "double jump", as by removing the SmashBoards restriction from the Google search, "midair jump" gets 4840 results (of which we're the top result, potentially due to us using it while not many others do?) whereas "double jump" gets 1.15 million.
