It's double because you use both hands.
>>
>>24838117
How come I don't see two hands in the animation for it? Use your brain anon. I think you have one.
>>
>>24838117
It's double because it goes back and forth. First forehand, then backhand, up to five times. Or vice versa.

Double kick makes no fucking sense.

It's called DOUBLE kick. Why does it show two kicks, then another two kicks? That makes FOUR kicks. Not two kicks.

Just drop this sick charade and call it Quadruple Kick. Fuck yes I'm mad.
>>
>>24838117
its double because you use both sides of the hand

>>24838746
You fucking retard. Go fill your sink up with water and then slap down on it. The meek little water that flies out is the "Mud Slap". Now go hang yourself on your front porch.

Tri Attack because it shoots three things at you, one of fire, one of ice and the last one of electricity

>>24838102
Someone didn't do research.

Mistranslation; it's Round Trip Slap in Japan.
>>24838787
That didn't happen before Generation V.
>>24839014
Another mistranslation, as >>24839101 points ou.
>>24840638
There wasn't enough place for Lightning.

>Mistranslation; it's Round Trip Slap in Japan.

No it's not. What the fuck is a "round trip slap"? The only place in the world you'll find that combination of words is on Bulbapedo.
>>
>>24838102
It's not called Double Slap in the original Japanese.

>>24841003

>>24841018
Pomf pls go.

And find some translators that actually KNOW nip instead of just one capable of looking words up in dictionaries.
