Pokémon have evolutions, but the Pokémon concept has evolved, too. Since 3G Pokémon games (firstly with Ruby & Saphire), trainers have been able to fight exciting Double Battles against their foes. Even in the animé, Hoenn people are used to fight Double Battles against others.
That's why we've seen those popular Pokémon couples by everywhere: Plusle & Minun, Solrock & Lunatone, Volbeat & Illumise, and Latios & Latias. Their moves and even their abilities are made especially for Double Battles. Typical in-game trainers for these Pokémon include twins and young and old couples of people.
Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, the 2 Pokémon games for Nintendo GameCube, are known for their exclusively Double Battle system.
Super Smash Bros.'s items are known for non-frequent surprises: containers that explode, hammers with heads that fall off, Poké Balls with Mew/Celebi/Jirachi, and other random-based things. In a similar way, what if instead of a Poké Ball, players can sometimes grab a pocket with 2 Poké Balls in it? 2 random Pokémon appearing simultaneously would be funnier than only 1, and this would be true to the new generations of the game.

Name: Balls Pocket
From: Pokémon Gold Version and Pokémon Silver Version (Game Boy, 2000)

Description:
Throw this pair of Poké Balls at your opponent or on the ground, and a pair of random Pokémon will lend you their help!
----------
The Balls Pocket isn't an item itself in the Pokémon games. Rather, when you play as the protagonist of the Pokémon RPG games, you have in your backpack a pocket specifically used to store all kinds of existing Poké Balls.
The image, while it's made up, shows a pair of Poké Balls joined by a plastic piece so that you can grab and throw the two of them at the same time.
