Double Team is Lucario's Down Special Move. When used, Lucario performs a defensive tai chi-like stance. If it is attacked during this stance, it will teleport behind the attacker, then strike for moderate damage and surprisingly high knockback, which is even greater after 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.
