It's not going to be added for ranked events, but I could see us adding something like this for unranked in the future.

If only the Big Beystadium was accessible or affordable, that would have been nice. And definitely ranking shouldn't be implemented for this due to the friendly fire (if all will play in one stadium alone).

1) The battle happens in two separate Stadiums at the same time. At the beginning of the battle, the pairs don’t se their opponent’s Beys and then choose which stadium they want in secret. The Bladers turn around and battle. Any points scored by the players will add to the team total, regardless of which team won. The battles happen side by side  at the same time, so the team that reaches 7 points first wins. If it’s a tie, the teams get to choose one representative for a tiebreaker. This could work for Deck Format with each player having 3 Beys and going to 9 points.

2) Only one battle at a time, and it works like a Deck Format battle in a way.  Both players on each team have one Bey, and both teams need to choose their first player in secret. The losing team gets to choose whether or not they want a rematch, and switching works like Deck Format. The players can exchange Disks, Frames, or Drivers once per match, but never Layers. Deck Format will have both players on each side choose 2 Beys, and they get to switch Disks, Frames, or Drivers twice per match. The order of rematching in Deck Format is deciding whether they want to switch Beys first and then whether they want to switch players.

For both ideas, no parts can be repeated across any Beys in both teams, with 1 minute to choose for every Bey involved.

I’m also thinking of combining the 2 battles at a time aspect with the parts switching aspect, which might be the most interesting version, as well as having 2 Beys per person for the Deck Format version.

Interesting, and this may solve the issue of friendly fire. But this is simply like a team event where you have X representatives per team fighting it out against other teams' representatives simultaneously to rack up necessary amount of points to win. I think the OP wanted something like an event in the anime for the 2v2, but the issues are already laid out aka random friendly fire/how to award points/etc.  At most, we can only do battle royale in the Big Beystadium and the oval white Beystadium.

Yeah, I was really just trying to make the format more realistic and functional because of how annoying team attack is in a game where you don’t have complete control.

If we're talking about a true 2v2 format, it'll create it own meta as it open up more strategies. There's of course both teams having to worry about friendly fire, but there's ways to avoid or reduce the effects of that. Other strategies I can think of includes, but probably not limited to:

-Spin equalization with a teammate to boost your or their bey spin
-knocking a teammate's bey into a opponent's
-(maybe) knocking a part of a teammate's bey (layer, disc and/or frame, driver, revive armor, dead armor, bullet driver top) into a opponent's bey shortly after the teammate's bey burst, loses it armor, and/or the the bullet top detaches from it.

I forgot to quote CitrusNinja3's first post so I'm just going to "fix" that because I don't know how to edit in quotes into existing posts.

I know that it would open up some cool strategies that involve covering all of the opponent’s options, but those combinations only work in theory. Also, think about how useless Attack Beys will become because of the fear of destroying your opponent and not having enough Stamina to take on the other two Beys at once.

Though I'm not too sure if it's legal for tournaments unless it's in free play. Anyways, if it's not then the b-09 or b-33 is kind of small for more than two beys.the third person would barely have enough room to fit their launcher into, especially with the sword and LR launchers. Just my opinion though. Otherthan that it sounds really fun.
