"...Hee hee hee. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! The Mavericks, Hunters and Repliforce... Idiots, all of them. They're making my job too easy!"
―Double, Mega Man X4

Double (ダブル Daburu) was a supporting character, as well as a secondary antagonist for X in Mega Man X4. Posing as a rookie Maverick Hunter he quickly gained X trust by acting as his operator during his missions. But as X began infiltrating the Final Weapon, Double revealed his true purpose; a spy sent by Sigma to infiltrate the Maverick Hunters. After slaughtering several Hunters of X's own 17th Unit on Sigma's command, Double then followed X to the Final Weapon, revealed his true self to him and attacked. He lost, but before he died he insulted X for his naivety and confessed that he was a spy along.

As his name suggests, Double has two forms: the first is a stocky, overweight, amicable form, but his second and true form is a taller, slimmer, and stronger battle-ready Reploid, with each hand equipped with energy sabers and strangely a gelatinous substance makes up about 50 percent of his body. Double's name also perfectly fits his role in the story as a double-agent and his possible split personality.

Double has several attack patterns. He will toss a large spinning energy disc at you (when his health is down to half, in sets of two) or fire two consecutive energy blades. One move that he uses often is to jump up to the ceiling, then slash down towards you, and then immediately make a second dash at you. Double's weakness is, ironically, the Double Cyclone. But, using Double Cyclone on him will cause small blobs of his body to break off and chase you. So, unlike the other bosses of the game using his weakness against him can actually create more problems for you than solve them.

Trivia

  • Double's sword-arm and evil grin upon showing his true nature is similar to that of another double agent/traitor that served with X and Zero later on.
  • Double is also called "Jello Man" by some fans, due to the gelatin-like substance that makes up parts of his body in his second form, and being labeled as such on the original X4 page of Capcom's website.
  • Double has a short cameo appearance in the opening scene of Mega Man X5.
